QUOTE(mercury8400 @ Nov 10 2010, 10:29 PM) SG is boring. What do you guys do during weekends? I got nothing to do...too tired of window shopping..... Same thoughts... weekends are very boring... No wonder they called it Singa-bored... I can't just window shopping, always back with at least 1 bag...   |

QUOTE(Lester1987 @ Nov 12 2010, 11:39 AM) huh? they are still not converting you to permanent even after 6 months? just curious, how many of them are permanent in ur dept? only the Manager?? does that means that those ASCS guys are also on contract? Hmm, well i guess they normally convert after 2nd time of renewing contract.. But it's ok la, i got extra allowance also as a contract staff, even though it's not as good as perm benefits  yup, most of the ASCS side also contract la.. My team got around 4 perm now This post has been edited by yinyum: Nov 12 2010, 05:33 PM |

QUOTE(seantang @ Nov 13 2010, 11:32 AM) Good if you like shopping. My office is right in the middle of Paragon, Orchard Cineleisure/313/Central/Centerpoint and 111 Somerset - and it's just too many cars, too many people, expensive food and CBD surcharge for taxis. Wow, I used to work in ION, so headache! Every time lunch hour so packed... The food so expensive Worst of all, go back also need to pack in the train! Luckily now working in AMK.. *phew* |
