I think I might have posted this topic in Chit
Chat before.
Are Singapporeans choosy about jobs?
Yes, without a doubt.
While I was looking for a job, my friend asked me if I would want
to work at the construction site. Polishing doors.
He too was an undergraduate, and am polishing doors for hie
friend's dad.
The first thought that flashed my mind was to reject it, but I said
"Sure." Times are hard, the fact that I had that thought in me was
already proof that I'm choosy.
Some days later, while I was in ICT, I asked another one of my
friend if he would take up this sort of job. "No," he said. he said
he couldn't take this sort of job. (He's larger in size than me, if
that's of any use.) The fact that he was studying, engineering, he
told me is so that one day he could get those jobs that wouldn't
require him to work under the sun.
Often times, I think, there are so many jobs in Straits Times
classified, how could there be people who say that there aren't any
job?
Employers are to blame too. Some are reported to pay their workers
so low that they can't even cover for their transport, bills and
food, not to mention some keep for their family.
Choosy, I would say that a lot, judging from the response from my
group of friends.
