Just a rough idea how much should I expect

We have a Mitsubishi Attrage 2016 model bought new from showroom. Approx 140k kms done. Automatic, base option, dark grey color.

It's in working condition but in these years it did get hit a bit in a outside villa car park by someone speeding in residential area and the back bumper go dented and needed replacement. Other than this it never went into an accident. It was serviced in local garages.

I will be putting up ads soon wherever it's not too expensive to do so, what could I expect approximately to recieve from this car as fair?

Thank you in advance 🙏

I am scared, please help me out

Please help me.

I am 34m, 6'1, 106kg, have type 2 diabetes and hypertension for which I take medications.

Last Saturday, I hooked up with a woman and in a heat of the moment I ate her, next day my lips started itching and has tiny black flat (no flares) spot on upper lip.

As of today, it covered thinly across my upper lip with extreme itch and dry feeling.

No other symptom up until today apart from what's explained above. No fever, no mouth ulcers spots, no sore throat nothing. There is no blisters, just blood like scars as you can see in image and a burning and dry feeling mostly on upper lip.

I went to nearest pharmacist to explain him the issue and he saw saying I might have oral herpes/cold sore and that I should apply the following cream aciclovir 2g tube on lips every 6 hours for 3 days and if it does not subsidize I should go for blood test.

If the blood test comes positive of herpes, how will my life be moving forward? As I am told it's incurable and I regret my life already..

Please help me.

Will i get another chance in career?

In 2021 April, I suddenly got a job offer that went smooth, the day of interview 1st round I was handed offer letter.

​

This job changed my life and gave me experiences which I didn't dream of. Good salary, healthy working environment, good projects and recognition.

​

Until in mid 2024 onwards the same boss starting getting toxic and abusive. I could only push it till 2025 September and resigned.

​

I work as a freelancer from home with quarter the pay since then and I feel like this is what life will be moving forward and that I won't have the same kind of opportunity again in life. I live overseas from birthplace, if my finances don't improve by end of the year I will have to wind up and shift back permanently to home country.

​

Attached in my chart including D10 in 2nd image and I thank everyone in advance who provides me a remark. 🙏

I quit an abusive job and no longer confident of my future

On September 2025, I abruptly quit a job that started as my dream job, changed my life 360 and mid way gradually became toxic.

​

I am here to share the entire ordeal, in hopes I am told if I was right or not to quit it abruptly cause it's been 8 months now, and I deep down feel I will never have a job like that ever in my life, knowing how unlucky I mostly am with finding jobs.

​

So I am 34 years old, I started my career a bit late, by age 23. So approx my career is 10 years old now.

​

In April 2021 after a series of not so good jobs (2 jobs to be precise) I out of blue got an offer, I am a Microsoft ERP software developer also know as technical consultant in this domain.

​

This company is an mnc, with offices in 5 countries, and is acquired by a huge group. This job doubles my pay, the atmosphere at work is so trusting, allowing autonomy, my boss was happy he got a in house help, I am happy cause it's my 1st job that alleviates me and my family out of extreme poverty.

​

I had 2 boss, 1 was the main boss that was from the acquiring group company, 1 is of the acquired company where I was hired.

​

I work hard, averaging 13 hours a day, which is a norm in the country I work (will get to this detail later), my main boss was a CFO, and since there was not even any technical person in this company, I handled the ERP and the IT and was happy cause being alone I did things my way and felt I was in control of entire company's tech stuff.

​

Life was no less than a dream, I rented a nice apartment next to office, got a decent car. 2 years into the job, my main boss and 2nd boss love me and my work, and tell me I will get to handle the tech of 3 more companies of the parent group.

​

I again can't believe my life, I lost my dad on 2016, so by this time I feel I am no longer depressed and healing and life's changing for good. I did get a raise for it, better health insurance etc and was flying countries staying in 5 start hotels to single handedly do ERP Implementations from scratch saving hundreds of thousands of usd in external vendor cost.

​

2024 mid I complete a huge implementation in internationally and come back, we go live, note something that he never shares this news within the company where I am placed. So to understand this better, the 1st company let's call it abc I was hired at was the base company. I had permanent office there and so was both my bosses.

​

I was managing the other 3 from the base company and traveled whenever needed on-site stuff. My base company colleagues whom I had amazing rapport with never get to know or told of the successful projects I do with other sister companies of the parent group.

​

Mid of 2024, the parent company does an audit of the recent implementation I did, the auditor was dazzled I went live all by myself with this implementation, however makes a list of things we missed which is documentations and some softer admin related stuff, which me being alone doing project management, coding, functional accounting, testing of this project, I was never told by my boss the nitty gritty was going to be brought up with audit and that audit will even happen. Additionally he gave me a deadline of 3 months to complete this while realistically it was 8 months project. I had to work 16 hours a day including weekends to finish this

​

Since the auditor shared this cc'ing some of the higher people in the parent group company, my boss who lacks tech skills or understanding (he's a cfo) takes this as a failure and gathers everyone in my base company, and says that I was trusted with a huge project and that I failed.

​

I felt so bad and 1 to 1 told him if the company is doing transactions on the ERP software daily and making monthly financial reports whom everyone is depending upon and that before we went live users tested each and everything, this is not a failure. And the audit report clearly says these are points to be rectified or looked at it next time we do another implementation.

​

The insecure person he is he thought I was sweet talking to pacify it. Months go on, he stops me from doing any work with any other company. Call me on weekends or public holidays with urgent tasks that makes no sense.

​

Periodically in front of coworkers pass remarks like I am wasting money and salary on tech department for nothing. Would 1 on 1 during any random meeting say where would you even go from this job, no one's going to hire you. Makes sure no one meets me from parent company or any other company, he would hijack any meeting or call I would get.

​

This goes on from mid of 2024 till on September 2025, I pulled a plug.

​

Since then, I now do freelancing and don't have the heart or motivation to look for another office job. Freelancing feels mentally good for me know, except the client I managed to get doesn't have much work and I can't make my ends meet with it.

​

I don't know what the future holds, but I really wanted to share all this with everyone.

​

I am south asian, who works in middle east.

​

Edit1: few more toxic things he would do

​

Make a junior sub ordinate become my ad hoc manager for micro projects. And give them instructions to follow up on me every 1 hour

​

Convince 2nd boss I do not deserve to be respected. So the 2nd boss would randomly make fun of how I look on a certain day, or how messy my work desk it (all this in front of the entire company)

In April 2021 after a series of not so good jobs (2 jobs to be precise) I out of blue got an offer, I am a Microsoft ERP software developer also know as technical consultant in this domain.

​

This company is an mnc, with offices in 5 countries, and is acquired by a huge group. This job doubles my pay, the atmosphere at work is so trusting, allowing autonomy, my boss was happy he got a in house help, I am happy cause it's my 1st job that alleviates me and my family out of extreme poverty.

​

I had 2 boss, 1 was the main boss that was from the acquiring group company, 1 is of the acquired company where I was hired.

​

I work hard, averaging 13 hours a day, which is a norm in the country I work (will get to this detail later), my main boss was a CFO, and since there was not even any technical person in this company, I handled the ERP and the IT and was happy cause being alone I did things my way and felt I was in control of entire company's tech stuff.

​

Life was no less than a dream, I rented a nice apartment next to office, got a decent car. 2 years into the job, my main boss and 2nd boss love me and my work, and tell me I will get to handle the tech of 3 more companies of the parent group.

​

I again can't believe my life, I lost my dad on 2016, so by this time I feel I am no longer depressed and healing and life's changing for good. I did get a raise for it, better health insurance etc and was flying countries staying in 5 start hotels to single handedly do ERP Implementations from scratch saving hundreds of thousands of usd in external vendor cost.

​

2024 mid I complete a huge implementation in internationally and come back, we go live, note something that he never shares this news within the company where I am placed. So to understand this better, the 1st company let's call it abc I was hired at was the base company. I had permanent office there and so was both my bosses.

​

I was managing the other 3 from the base company and traveled whenever needed on-site stuff. My base company colleagues whom I had amazing rapport with never get to know or told of the successful projects I do with other sister companies of the parent group.

​

Mid of 2024, the parent company does an audit of the recent implementation I did, the auditor was dazzled I went live all by myself with this implementation, however makes a list of things we missed which is documentations and some softer admin related stuff, which me being alone doing project management, coding, functional accounting, testing of this project, I was never told by my boss the nitty gritty was going to be brought up with audit and that audit will even happen. Additionally he gave me a deadline of 3 months to complete this while realistically it was 8 months project. I had to work 16 hours a day including weekends to finish this

​

Since the auditor shared this cc'ing some of the higher people in the parent group company, my boss who lacks tech skills or understanding (he's a cfo) takes this as a failure and gathers everyone in my base company, and says that I was trusted with a huge project and that I failed.

​

I felt so bad and 1 to 1 told him if the company is doing transactions on the ERP software daily and making monthly financial reports whom everyone is depending upon and that before we went live users tested each and everything, this is not a failure. And the audit report clearly says these are points to be rectified or looked at it next time we do another implementation.

​

The insecure person he is he thought I was sweet talking to pacify it. Months go on, he stops me from doing any work with any other company. Call me on weekends or public holidays with urgent tasks that makes no sense.

​

Periodically in front of coworkers pass remarks like I am wasting money and salary on tech department for nothing. Would 1 on 1 during any random meeting say where would you even go from this job, no one's going to hire you. Makes sure no one meets me from parent company or any other company, he would hijack any meeting or call I would get.

​

This goes on from mid of 2024 till on September 2025, I pulled a plug.

​

Since then, I now do freelancing and don't have the heart or motivation to look for another office job. Freelancing feels mentally good for me know, except the client I managed to get doesn't have much work and I can't make my ends meet with it.

​

I don't know what the future holds, but I really wanted to share all this with you.

​

I am south asian, who works in middle east.

Edit1: few more toxic things he would do Make a junior sub ordinate become my ad hoc manager for micro projects. And give them instructions to follow up on me every 1 hour

Convince 2nd boss I do not deserve to be respected. So the 2nd boss would randomly make fun of how I look on a certain day, or how messy my work desk it (all this in front of the entire company)
