Alamak

I'm staying with a Malaysian colleague now. Everything is cool except he's very calculative when it comes to food.

Let's say we plan to cook something for dinner so we went to the supermarket. While we are there, we started buying stuff for dinner. Here comes the problem, he would complain most of the things is expensive. The thing that he kept repeating is eggs. Yes, I know 1 friggin' egg is about 60 cents ringgit.

The thing is by cooking ourselves, the meal is usually less than NZD5 and it's healthier. A typical meal would cost NZD10 regardless what you eat unless you want to go with fastfood which is NZD8 to NZD10.

Don't let me get started with bananas now. Aduh!

I've even cooked a few meals free for him.

Next please.

ps. his basic salary is at least 50% higher than me. To be fair, he spent RM200k dumping his ex.
