To me its very silly to join an industry that is supposed to the forefront of technological advancement and filled with cheap labour from India and Philippines undercutting each other and expect to just sit around and do the same thing everyday till end of times.

Public sector seldom if ever consider graduates for general admin positions, especially those of engineering/IT background. They usually do not have the general admin experience.

Bottom line is IT is not the place to just sit around go through repeat motion every day, you will be eaten by the FTs in no time with this sort of attitude. Better do something else.

I am listing down the pros and cons as I see it. Just to see if this is indeed the typical case as experienced by other IT professionals. I wish to set my expectations right.
I pointed out that IT operations can be quite OK if the system/SOP are stable and I do not object to working on weekends/off office hours, as long as the number of working hours do not go crazy. Not that it is all bad, and IT development is all good.
Btw, it appears that you have some virulent hatred for foreigners for whatever reason. Every reply of yours, you have to bring them in. Did they put you out of job or got you fired?
