Hahaha this is so true.

Typical corporate environment, because it is not a site office, it’s usually a lot of paper work and meetings.

Generally nice environment and centralized location. But moving to Jurong in a few years

Unregistered This is not the worst. Had recent meeting with PCD, the engineers do not even seem to know what they are doing.

remember the CCL signalling and rolling stock issue some years back? Whole LTA go and troubleshoot with vendors, logs taken but some top management was shocked almost whole LTA no one know how to read logs or decipher, had to throw to vendors. Whole Rail team throw face and end up need utilise DSTA engineers come in, read the logs and use algorithm to deduce it is certain rolling stock that is causing the issue. Really speaks about the capability of current crops of LTA, paper pusher with zero technical.
