My first sale thru cooking!

Alhamdulillah. I'm thankful for today achievement. It's really a tiring work tho. The story begins as I'm palnning to go out today due to my bank card problems. So i should grab the chance given to buy the ingredients needed to cook for today. So i bought some vegies and chillies. Rice, paste and etc have been bought earlier before. Also I bought the knife and cutting board, doing the traditional way as it is way cheaper. But I need to consider having that chopper to cut things and mix them up much faster. haha but i might loss the skills of chopping the onions, sobs.

That evening after I came back, i tried to cook for around 8 person and it tastes so good and a bit spicy as I add in some white pepper. hehe. I gave free 6 packets of nasi goreng to my friends as a promotion and to let them taste it. Later on, they ask for more tonight after rollcall.  few of them have locked their order for tonight. And I started to cook for 12 people. the first and biggest amount I've ever cook for. So I made 20 packs. 12 sold and another 8 I giveaway as promotion and tester

So there are some few thing I learnt today.

1. Prepare earlier

This one refer to documentation. I should have made the permission letter earlier that night so that I will not waste my time which result in rushing and creating troubles to other people. Inform the person holding the rank's stamp
early so we can easily find them. Also, you will not get frustrated if any last minute rejection, haha

 

2. To-buy list is a must

Never go shoping without you buying list as this may lead to impulsive purchase. Besides, you might get depressed as you forget to buy while your are near that place for quite some time. By having your buying list either on your notes or your phone will save a lot of your time and giving you a clear vision of the things you need to buy

 

3. Try until you get it

I cook before but end up with disasterous taste. I can barely swallow the plain boring nasi goreng i've made for the first time with that pressure cooker. Then, the rice end up in the trash can. But the next day i kept on trying after making some improvision. Adding mix vegies, chillies, peppers, onions and etc,  I managed to cook quite tasty nasi goreng for myself. Alhamdulillah I'm full

 

4. Sharing is caring

Give your friends to try it for free and make them comment on your food. Is there any lackings and ask them for how much they willing to pay for that food, this will help you do the survey on pricing and value.

 

5. Be honest in business

Sometimes there are time when you have trouble dealing with you potential or customers either they might condemned you or simply bad-mouth on you, just keep calm and have faith in Allah. Do your best and take all the customers' complaint as a gift. Remember to appriciate them well

Tutorial : Verify PayPal dengan Maybank VISA Debit Card 2016

Assalamualikum pembaca sekalian. Paypal sememangnya antara platform yang popular digunakan di Malaysia untuk transaksi luar negara. Namun begitu kemudahan ini juga banyak risikonya. Hal ini telah diambil berat oleh pihak Maybank (sebab saya pengguna Maybank) yang mana telah meningkatkan sistem keselamatan mereka. Kad baharu yang versi Platinum ini memang kelihatan bergaya dan lebih menarik. Kalau anda masih belum mendapatkan kad yang baharu, boleh pergi ke mana-mana branch yang berhampiran dan tukar secara percuma. Tak jauh beza dari yang tahun lepas (2015 dan sebelum) cuma kali ini ada penambahan MyDebit pada kad debit anda untuk tujuan membeli-belah terutamanya selain Visa Paywave yang telah lama diperkenalkan sebelum ini. Alhamdulillah harini berjaya juga saya verify paypal walaupun telah lama guna visa debit card maybank ni. Bukan tak pernah cuba untuk verify tapi asyik error sahaja dari website paypal itu sendiri dekat part adress. Katanya tak matching dan sekarang saya akan tunju...

Proxy problem solved!

Thank God my laptop's proxy issue has solved. I'm not sure what kind of malware did it infected but the effect i couldn't access the internet via browser. Especially Chrome. Normally we have to go to settings>proxy settings and unchecked the proxy button there it happened to me the option was grey out! never happen to me before. After some research on the web and ckecked the pc, this thing : "Change proxy : http = 127.0.0.1: 8080; https = 127.0.0.1: 8080" Keep on coming out even after I changed thru the REGEDIT and some stuff recommended by other users on a forum. Later, I check my antivirus if it is intact. paid quite expensive but still cannot detect malwares, i'm pretty dissapointed. Checking on the net for the top free malware software and I try this one : Malwarebytes  It's a good one and it's actually working. That is what most important. Unfortunately, this good product is quite pricey. Might use it after my current antivirus expires. Now tho...

Serabut mana pun, be positive

One after another rules and regulations jadi strict. It's not like before. baru je nak merasa naik senior ni boleh atur hidup lebih terancang. huhu Member tak henti-henti ajak training volleyball untuk masum. masalah sekarang ni lom tentu lagi dapat keluar main nanti. Training bagai nak rak. Lagipun May and June ni memang pack lah. Fokus untuk grand finale. Semua aktiviti selain study aku dah ketepikan. Sejak akhir-akhir ni pun asyik balik lambat malam-malam. So kena study jugak setiap hari at least buka juga slides tu go through walaupun macam da tepu penat segalanya. Tak boleh ikutkan mood. Nak berjaya kena SABAR ! Last time medik oncall menjadi issue. Medik pun dah kena join itu ini like everyone else. Not a problem to me i guess, but yang problem ialah pentadbiran semakin rancak pulak. salah sikit je collective. ganggu beb nak study ni dah dekat nak finale. dengan dasar baru: training first, academic second. begitu lah. Look at the positive sides, baguslah nak melahirkan pegawa...
