Earning 7k at age 32 does not means will be earning 15k at age 42 these days........
Remember the day when Lehman Bros staff all asked to pack up? DBS VPs packing up into their MPVs parked near ShentonWay? Those guys were earning good pay!! Some of them now still jobless and selling insurance/property.......
Acid test for your job:
1. Every morning when you wake up, do you feel like rushing to office to work? You wish the bus/car could travel faster? Can't wait to reach your desk to start work?
2. Every evening, do you feel reluctant to go home? You feel like bringing pillow to sleep in your office?
If both ans are YES! Congrats, you have the dream job! If no, better go find another job.... |
why are people so eager to find jobs? jobs are for foreigners in singapore. in this country, where the government is ultra pro-business and pro-cheap labour, all citizens should crack their brains, be entrepreneurial and be our own bosses. start a business! start a company! hire cheap foreigners and cheap interns to do all the work for you. aim to have big name mncs to be your clients and charge them an arm and a leg. they can well afford it.
even a small time towkay distributing eggs makes 20-30k a month. interior design towkays (or rather contractors) also make the same amount. just yesterday straits times featured a restaurant towkay who is now "top of the world". think about it.
