LHDN goes hard on the everyday Rakyat.
But goes soft on the elite.
Fast when collecting. Silent when refunding.
Your money in - their delay out.
Tax isn’t the issue.
Fairness is.
CEO: People should not rush out of the office.
HR: He was not rushing out. He was simply leaving when the workday ended.
CEO: Still, it did not look right.
HR: That is exactly why he left. He realized very quickly that even with better pay, the culture expected presenteeism over performance.
CEO: That is unfortunate.
HR: Yes. We offered him double the salary, but also gave him a preview of a workplace where leaving on time becomes a character issue.
CEO: So what are you saying?
HR: If employees are judged for having boundaries, then no amount of money will make them stay.
A higher salary can attract people. But if respect for time is missing, it will not keep them.
HR: We lost the new hire today.
CEO: What happened?
HR: He resigned after his first week.
CEO: That makes no sense. We doubled his previous salary.
HR: Yes, but salary was not the issue.
CEO: Then what was?
HR: You asked him why he left at exactly 5:00 p.m. And why he left the office before you did.
CEO: I was just trying to understand his mindset.
HR: He understood it clearly. He felt the company was not paying for his work, but for control over his time.
CEO: But commitment matters.
HR: So do boundaries. He finished his work, met expectations, and left on time. But instead of that being seen as professionalism, it was treated like a lack of loyalty.
CEO:↓↓
Boss: “You’re 10 minutes late.”
Employee: “I stayed an hour late yesterday to finish your ‘urgent’ work.”
Boss: “That’s appreciated… but rules are rules.”
Employee: “Got it.”
Next day.
9.00 a.m. - logged in exactly on time.
5.00 p.m. - system shut down exactly on time.
No “just one last task.”
No “quick call.”
No “it’ll only take 5 minutes.”
Boss: “Can you stay a bit longer today?”
Employee: “I would… but rules are rules.”
Boss: “We’ll also give you a 95% raise—just don’t leave!”
Employee: “Sorry, it’s too late now.”
Lesson for Leaders:
Employees don’t leave only because of money—they leave when they feel undervalued or unappreciated.
Retaining good employees isn’t just about increasing their pay; it requires recognition, growth opportunities, and proactive leadership.
Take care of your best employees— before they decide to leave you.
Blessed Easter to you and your loved ones 🌸✝️
May the miracle of the resurrection remind us of God’s endless love and grace.
May your heart be renewed with faith, joy, and peace today and always.
“He is risen indeed!”
@Simon_Ingari You can't demand strict office boundaries and then expect flexibility after hours. It works both ways.
If work stays inside office hours, respect that. If you want availability beyond that, then flexibility has to go both ways too.
@Simon_Ingari Not everyone wants meetings, politics and people management.
Some prefer deep work, skill mastery and impact without managing others and that’s a valid career path.
@Simon_Ingari Corporate Tip:
Normalize not wanting to be a manager.
Not everyone wants to manage people.
Some want to build, create, and stay technical.
Leadership is not always upward.
Sometimes it is mastery in your lane.
