fi_east u guys think is it better to work in the gov sector or private sector?.. i know gov sector bonus wise not that much compared to private.. but gov sector work is more secure.. I have got the gov sector job but havnt sign agreement yet.. took so long so them to write up the agreement, haha..

poor and stupid Its not because he is moonlighting, the fact that he violated an agreement, and if you lose you chance to work for the public sector (singaporeans only) you are = finished. private sector's FTs are going to crush you

much better than people who criminally cheat, lie, manipulate, and corruptly award taxpayers-funded contracts to friends and family or in exchange for sexual favours.

even in pte sector you have to declare if you have ever been dismissed before in application form. you will be forced to lie and potentially get dismissed again in the future or state the truth & lower ur chances during interview

Somemore first day work ask boss that question is that ok?.. wont he have a bad impression of me?.. haha..
you never work in civil service before isit?

dont be naive, your boss have totally no say on whether you can work pt, this is policy driven from the top and not up for negotiation.

don't try to punk ard with hr just to get some extra small change esp when they already instructed you specifically during interview, it aint worth to get terminated over stupid things like this.

You will have to let your new boss and HR know about this part-time job (what is it btw?).

But most likely, your boss will want to err on the safe side, cos he doesn't want to open a can of worms. Imagine after granting you permission, the next day his whole team come asking him for formal permission to moonlight.
