I find it odd that if a person wants to scam, he/she would want 2 scam on an acer laptop, the mud scummer of the PC world in terms of QC.
Actually HP laptops perform even worse than Acer...Working Life in Singapore V3a, new version...

QUOTE(Monstar @ Jun 2 2010, 09:44 AM) Hi guys, I did some online apartment hunting and as I am really unfamiliar with Singapore, I have no idea what to expect. Could you guys roughly let me know what to expect for the following rent amount and conditions. Thanks Rent: SGD 2500-3000 Rooms: 3 Near MRT Furnished As near to Raffles Place as possible. Which area would I be able to rent for that amount? Would I be able to rent a place that is less than 5-6 MRT stops away from Raffles Place that comes with gym facilities? Take a look at the rail map for Singapore, mark out the stations that you would want to live nearby and then on the online real estate websites, choose apartments for that budget within those areas. The good thing about Singapore MRT is that the names of the stations are the same as the names of the areas. I'm more familiar about the North South MRT line and 5-6 stations from Raffles Place means Newton or Novena. Since you want gym facilities, that means private condos and not HDB flats. For Newton and Novena... 3 bedroom furnished private condo with decent gym... you might want to double your budget to get more options. |

I didn't think that you had any products that would require online solicitation or cold calling customers. Or do you mean customer service / service desk? |

Most likely I would like to stay at the east side of the island. One of my housemate flies a lot and prefer to be near the airport. How far is Bedok to Raffles Place by car? It is about 8 stops away by MRT. Gym is of secondary importance. It would be nice to have but not vital. |

All sifus, need some opinion here.
What is the salary for a 1 yr experienced QS there? Currently I got 1 job offer here RM2500, as site QS. But I am thinking to further my career in Singapore. Yesterday there is an agent called me, offering $2200, but its kind of tiles supplier - Polybuilding. Anyone heard this before? Should I take it or keep waiting for another job offer? Since I am no really into supplier line, looking for developer, main-con or consultant company. I am planning to take it as a temporary job, just to set my feet in Singapore, than look for what I want. But is there any harm if I change job in few months time? I mean for my permit or whatsoever, does it affect anythg?! Please Comment, Thanks! This post has been edited by badzvino: Jun 3 2010, 07:17 AM |
