Facts about Singapore IV

To those who are looking for jobs (especially university graduates):

Try not to be too picky!

I'm saying this because I've been hearing a lot about graduates being picky about getting their jobs and ended up replaced by our fellow foreign mates.

For example:

• "The salary is not what they expected."
• "The job is hard work and need long hours."
• "I don't want to get my hands dirty."
• "It is not my dream job."
• "The staff here are not my kind of friends."
• "Blah blah blah..."

Just be happy with what is out there that is not unreasonably displeasing. Enjoy it through and learn some new skills. (we, guys have endured through NS. I'm sure you know how to enjoy through the "miserable" times.)

Lastly, good luck to all who're looking for jobs!

Facts about Singapore II

A negative example of service standard of Singapore - "Silence is golden!"

It would be nice if Singapore's service standard improves. Simple gestures such as a smile or greetings makes customers feel more welcome. It also makes the world "livelier". Personally, a smile and a simple "Thank you, see you again" brightens up my moment for a little while.

However, I do understand the long hours the workers are having and doing the same routine of scanning goods, receiving money and returning changes. Doing this for a few hundred times makes it a chore. Moreover, the hustle lifestyle Singaporeans have - everything needs to be fast and effective.

Below, is a link to an article written regarding the Service in Singapore. The author analyse some of the bad service staffs and share his thoughts.
