We’ve been close friends for almost 13 years, and I honestly consider them one of my best friends. We don’t talk all the time ever since we transferred to different schools for college, so it became more of a low-maintenance friendship, but they still knew my mom well. My mom also cared about them a lot.

They sent me a condolences message and apologized because they couldn’t come, even though the funeral parlor was only around 5-10 minutes away from them. I don’t know… I just can’t help but feel hurt and disappointed. A part of me feels guilty for feeling this way, but another part of me feels like if someone truly cared, they would’ve at least tried to show up during one of the hardest moments of my life.

I passed the initial HR interview and the hiring manager interview, and now HR emailed me for the final interview stage with another hiring manager for a position that fits me better. They mentioned there were delays because they were trying to coordinate the hiring managers’ schedules.

The thing is, they only offered Thursday with no other options. It’s making me overthink because the hiring managers seem hard to reach schedule-wise, and I feel bad since I genuinely have an important matter to attend to that day.

Do you think they’ll still get back to me if I ask to reschedule, or will they automatically move on to another candidate?

Do they send rejection emails if you passed the final interview stage, or do they usually just ghost applicants? It’s been 2 weeks since my last interview with them.

Hello! Yung papa ko po nastroke sa office nila last 2024 pa. Sa Taguig po siya naconfine at naoperahan. Since naoperahan at di na makasalita, makalakad at makasulat ang papa ko, nagpagawa ng pwd card ang mama ko sa munisipyo ng Taguig. Malaking tulong din to para maka discount kami sa milyon niyang hospital bill. Also naka address po siya sa office nila kaya nagawan ng pwd card.

Sa marikina po kami naka tira talaga. Pwede po ba hintayin na lang na mag expire yung PWD ID niya then magpagawa po ng bago dito sa Marikina? Paano po kaya proseso sa pag apply ng bagong pwd id? Kung mag aasikaso man po, kailangan pa po ba isama papa ko? Di pa rin po kasi siya nakakalakad, naka wheelchair lang at mainitin ang ulo 😅

Hello! How’s the hiring process at Publicis Manila Advertising Agency? as well as the company culture? Thank you

Hello! Not sure if this is the right sub, but I really need advice.

My father had a stroke that led to emergency brain surgery in February 2024. Since the nearest option was a private hospital, we had to proceed there. We were able to pay around ₱2M with the help of family, friends, and guarantee letters from different government agencies. We also managed to pay ₱150k just so he could be discharged, and signed a promissory note since we don’t have any collateral—we’re just a working middle-class family.

As of now, we still have about ₱1.5M in unpaid hospital debt, and it has already been forwarded to a collection agency.

Has anyone experienced something similar? I honestly don’t know what to do anymore. My mom, who the account was under, recently passed away last March, so I’ve had to step up as her daughter. I’ve also been overthinking and worrying if we could face legal consequences, like getting jailed.

How do we even start asking for help, especially with a debt that’s been unpaid for a while? Any advice would really mean a lot.
