i finally got a few job offers!! yay!

well the first one was really cool. it was for the National Library. The work hours are either from 10am to 3pm or 3pm to 9pm. Yay i can finally sleep in!! no more smelly 9 to 6 jobs! whee! BUT, it is a temporary contract for only 6 months and the salary is miserable i tell you. its only S$720 monthly. i was like WHAT THE FUCK?! i can't freaking buy anything with S$720 dammit! but i want that job because its something new and i love trying new stuff.

So that Library stint i told the headhunter i will consider, but i'll most prolly will give it a pass BUT if a permanent position in the library were to come by, i'd be very most interested in it.

the second job offer was with the Ministry for Manpower, a government body. I was to be delegated as a Customer Service Officer at the building at Havelock Road. I love that area! its so quiet and nice! BUT this is where all the good stuff ends. work hours are from 8.30am to 6pm. i can't freaking wake up for a job that starts at 9am!! the salary was slightly better though, it was for S$1,390 monthly. That means if you deduct 20% off for the pension scheme thingy, i will be taking home like a measely S$1,ooo-ish monthly.

Such a huge contrast with what i am earning as a phone banker now with UOB. come on Singapore what's with the stagnant salarie!?!?
