“Should never OT unless absolutely necessary, because if anything happens to you; we will just create another job ad or posting. There is more to life than work.” - my ex boss.

[@jackjo2739]

I believe if you are an entreprenuer ok lah u work like crazy.. But for a mere employee? Just work as per your schedule... But of course be productive... The most annoying thing is some people 'overtime' just to show off how hard they work...But the fact is, their productivity is lower than those who go back on time...So yeah to management, open your eyes...quality over quantity!

[@princepsionic]

I never overtime so far, and I'm pretty much against it actually. I think such Malaysian culture would only deteriorate our physical & mental health

[@ardenBcho]

So sad but a good reminder to take care of yourself and your life/family. No work should come before your mental health and well being!!

[@NickDavisMusic]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@khawthianming2775]

This short film really sparks out saying that u can be hard working but not to the extent of your mental and physical well-being

[@p.v7098]

I was expecting him to wakeup.

[@tsumplay3094]

That opened window can't even fit a human head. LOL

[@ipohgameboy2768]

Good content in the video that promotes father's day. It shows how important a father's day to the family. Besides, it contains sadness during the end of the scene and horrible during the lift scene. During the process of the shooting, this video is pretty good and the editing of the video is incredible. Your quality of the video is not disappointing to an audience. In the end, it shows a moral of the story in this video which is work-life balance.

This is so well made thank you jinnyboy

I’m glad I work on the ground floor.

lollll

u can open a portal to anywhere so that's ok :)

Man when the ending was approaching I got the sense of what was going to happen next. But it still broke my heart knowing that my prediction was right :( Our society should be more educated and aware about the topic mental health. As someone who had mental illnesses for more than half a decade, it saddens me to know that most of the older generation don't understand my struggles in life and how it affects my quality of life. Hopefully in the future where education was more easily available, our society would be more educated on this topic because as time goes by, more and more people are suffering from mental illnesses, more and more people need help.

The most I've stayed in office is till 12+ am for a few months and I regretted that silliness.

[@dctwocomputer1549]

AWESOME! This is like a Black Mirror episode.

[@AzzamLah]

I am sure this is a wonderful piece of art (I had to fast forward a lot because it's a topic that I cannot handle at the moment). My suggestion is to add trigger warnings for those who may be extremely disturbed by it. I understand this is supposed to be shocking and serve as a wake up call but this might trigger some people's trauma. Great work as always.

[@Jinnyboy]

thanks for this

[@Alruno2g]

What's the reason you couldn't watch it?

[@hueyteoh01]

@@Alruno2g no offence, but I don’t think anyone should be questioning why he’s not able to watch them because suicide is indeed a sensitive topic, especially to those who are still recovering from the trauma this may have caused to their lives.

[@my-essay]

The video is so good! I learned a lot

[@yecly]

Some victims of depression DON'T SHOW ANY SIGN AT ALL. Which sounds so scary and sad. One day, they are laughing, and smiling, and the next day.... They are gone. Just like that. If your friend or family showed some sudden change of habits, out of place, please take a good look. Who knows, they are fighting for their life, despite how happy-go-lucky and cheerful they are in front of others. Inside they are crying or worse finding their own life empty and looking for the quickest escape.

[@heymkay]

Commenting on a technical point of view.This film had alot of interesting angles, composition and lighting techniques I especially liked the lighting where he was seated on the couch talking to the voice notes ......... It was incredible ☺️ great storytelling too.....not much was said but you could tell what was happening through the actions.

[@oseandepartmentofnarcotics]

not enough social credits to leave

[@worldorderfx]

The most I stayed OT so far was until 4.30am. That night I also texted my boss I was going to resign. 😂

[@bobg1685]

Nicely done.

[@kribrigdefoo]

acting is good, but the sound effects are top notch!

[@dip3n]

another epic short film.

[@fauxvier8519]

This is so cool.

[@eputen]

A work of art. As an employee who has to do regular overtimes, i relate to it so hard. GG

[@Jinnyboy]

thanks for watching!

[@jbofficefitrinurhakimmdsha3714]

Subtle but on point

[@RyanLimZW]

this gives off the backroom vibes

[@zacklee22]

Hi I am Zack from Malaysia and I really like your video

[@ianyeam3384]

Too deep for my comprehension

[@Dandelions..v]

This video made me feel like it’s horror

Saludos desde República Dominicana

[@huijessica]

intense. but I did feel like the pace was quite slow. great vid though

[@SBDC_YT]

Please release the instrumentel for KL Style also good video!

[@princepsionic]

Anyone get what this short film trying to say? 😂

[@davidnyj]

Nope..boring

[@nataliasolita8152]

The guy was working too much, not seeing his own family. At the end they either divorced or smth happened to them as saying "I am coming" he might have stepped out the window.

[@tahaaga5187]

From funny vids go short films 🎥. Great. For the record Malaysia is already third most over worked country in the world if I’m not wrong so OT on top of that definitely sucks.

[@fireysquadron]

IT FEELS LIKE SQUID GAME

[@alienng8]

Erm.....okay........

[@thisisnick8380]

I’m a huge fan of jinnyboyTV and I always enjoy watching your videos coz it’s sometimes funny, joyful, overwhelming and sometimes sad. But this video in particular is horrendous! It was just depressing watching it the whole time. I’m not saying it’s not good and I’m not saying it’s great either but based of previous videos this is a whole different genre and I don’t know maybe you guys are just testing waters but I had to say my part coz it could have ended very differently.

[@sandralee8535]

Ending has suspense - did he get out or he jumped (in the ending we hear sirens)?

[@stoody2921]

Which means it was a suicide....??

[@user-lp2tb2qj6e]

More japanese should watch this

[@YsChan09201]

Is it a ghost film? 🤔

[@spikeplayz9282]

Hi

[@aussiegal18]

Suggestion to include a disclaimer before and after the short film as it can be quite triggering. Overall as always great and poignant short film!

[@techwolfcave]

I agree

[@crusty_project]

nice

[@WidipaNandana]

He reminds me of michael, he has the same face

[@isaiasantoniolirianomadera4390]

I didn't enjoy the video I suffer. It was really sad story.😥😥 I wished he could go and see his family.

what is this short flim? is bad im sorry because it is

Pls lah...as if you could do better.

[@p.v7098]

It has a meaning..Maybe you're not wise enough to understand.

[@nisxins]

@@p.v7098 is quite complicated imo, my bad

[@p.v7098]

@@nisxins it's about a dad..working overtime and immersing himself in his work all day, all night..No time for family, friends, hangouts..All he does is work and one day, he misses his daughters birthday because of..Well...Work. He wife is furious and leaves him messages, he tries going home after shutting down the computer but his mind..Is not able to concentrate on anything but work. He is in this Lil cycle. A trap, a psychological trap, no matter what he does...He needs to work. In here, it shows that he is trying to get out of that state but fails and loses his mind.

[@nisxins]

@@p.v7098 thank you so much for elaborating, appreciate

[@GrozenSaurus]

I was expecting to someone would come to save Daddy in this story. If you see this from Christian perspective. The stuck at the 8 level and never going home is A sin. Then if someone save Daddy in this short movie it would be Jesus who saved the sinners. The someone here means mortals like us who sent by His words to bring sinners back to the right path. And the right path to go to heaven is only by Jesus alone. Again this is from my christian perspective. I do not ask you to must believe what i was type. It's just my opinion.
