Ya lor. If uni grad email type like this really jialat sia

Me also no ball catch.

Had been jobless and took the sgunited midway career switch. It is damn useless la. Idk why the gahmen keep championing it. Even those retrenched pmet have to get a huge salary cut in order to get re-employed and kowtow to millennials, who probably earn more than me coz they are young

Bear in mind, when u r in your 40s, u r out of the economy already. U r tardy, slow and probably expensive. Still wanna mid career switch? Wake up from your Singaporean dream pls

Then you tell me what's the alternative la...kpkb so much

Your previous career is already gone. You can either 1) try another employer in your field, 2) choose to undetake a career switch with a paycut, 3) be a grab/food panda guy, 4) or remain unemployed.

The millenial is your boss cause he is zai. What's wrong with kowtowing to him? Your ego so fragile that you cannot accept a millenial boss?

This is the reality of the world. You kpkb also no use. No one owes you a living. The govt tries to create a pathway for people like you to see if there is another career alternative for you. Paycut is for sure. But in the long-run, perhaps you can still suceed if you try hard enough.

No one can guarantee you will do well. It's on you to have a flexible mindset and be open to re-skilling and re-learning. I got 40+ year-old friends who managed to transition into IT as business analysts after taking courses. Sure, they got a paycut. But they are actually doing well now; some have also been promoted to do larger projects in well-known companies.

It's generally better to find a job while employed.

This is because you have better negotiation power with any would-be employer.

Otherwise, they will low-ball you because they know you don't have any alternative.

Also, the longer you are out of work, the less your previous work experience will count.

So, it can become an issue for you.

This is a reality. Just hope wont get retrenched. Everyone will eventually reach 40s. By then should focus more on health and well being

U took the money and now tell us useless? If you so smart and capable, why not return the money then? Why did you even need it in the 1st place?

In fact, the program give you the opportunity to show your worth to the company you are attached to. It is an opportunity, not an entitlement to iron rice bowl. You need to work on your mindset. Negative people are just wasting the opportunity because they think it is their entitlement

Ya. In your 40s should focus more on health and well being. Whatever robust dreams in your younger years are either fulfilled or still dreaming away but must be realistic.

I am in my mid 40s, though currently still employed but more relaxed and not so worried about retrenchment cos no commitment, no debts no kids even though I am married.

The last thing you worry is get into medical debt so take care of your health really. One health bill can wipe out more than half of your savings.
