 I won't work for free, unless I work for a development organization/nonprofit. People generally pay very well for engineering talent here. Hi Laguna, which one? Sims drive or Ubi? Anyway thanks, but I made the decision to be bonded so we'll see how that goes |

Since you already get allowance from your scholarship, why don't you offer to work for free? I'm sure people will hire you that way!

No- I'm still bonded to the police. But I've got one summer where I can find my own internship- and I thought working in a startup as an engineer would be a valuable experience to have (especially for someone in govt- everyone seems to just do a consultancy/finance internship nowadays). Going through the recruiting process now, so if any of you have any contacts/etc who would want to take an computer science guy (can code, design, and can work for practically anything) it would be awesome |

I'm actually doing Computer Science now- not Economics. Funny how life turns out. Well, I really don't know. I guess as an engineer now, I'm as eager as you to find out. I do feel your pain, though... working at a startup later this year |

So Daniel, as an economics student,what do you think of engineering as part of Singapore's economy in the future? [forecast] will we be able to be at the same par as those engineers in the states,germany and japan? thanks |

3720 Dear Daniel, i have said nothing that is bad for your image. You can be sure none of the adults can pick, find or excavate anything of the sort. You are still super young and I fully understand the place you are in and how you are bursting with idealism. On the agenda of the unemployed bloggers, you could do your own research and find out the truth yourself. As X-files said, The Truth Is Out There. Finally, regarding your "concerns" about my response to "not PS", all I can say is a spade is a spade. Also, my views are not representative of the civil service and certainly not of its elites. Afterall, I am only an outsider. PS are not pods you know. They also socialise and have social connections to entities outside of their world of brilliance. Out there with commoners like me. For all you know, I am someone posing to know a PS in real life cos I am also anonymous operating behind a screen like you! I too, like you can't be verified hahaha!!!

3658 Observer- we're on the same side. What I meant was whether he knew you were posting on this comments page as his girlfriend- because some of the things may be good and bad for the general image of scholars... I don't agree at all when you label blogs such as TOC and Wayangparty as silly- you have to admit that there is something in what they are saying, even though I disagree with them most of the time. I know some of the people at TOC and have had the chance to disagree with them; they are immensely intelligent and certainly aren't as unintelligent as you make them out to be. So let's go easy on labelling people such as 'not ps' and all... especially when your diatribe makes fun of them as unemployed (which is very sensitive). I know its weird for me as a junior to say this, but honestly I thought that was a bit harsh. (Moreover I don't think blogs such as TOC are inconsequential- they are pretty good indicators of how a particular sector of the population feels, and have immense power to influence. Yeah) Anyway, I don't want to get dragged into a debate about police and army. Both serve the country, both expose the men who serve to society around them. There is no "better", only what suits oneself for a career. To each his own, and after all its about the service, not what service is better because they are all necessary. I apologize for the statements I made about the army- they were personal opinions formed from my experiences, and I'm sorry if I offended you. yeah Well, if you still think I'm an imposter, I just touched down in SG at midnight tonight and will be available for coffee for the next 3 weeks. I'm not sure whether you're really a PS's girlfriend either- so does that make us equal?
