Since August, about 5 to 6 ECSF staffs has left.. They're pretty smart... They left AFTER the Chiang Mai Incentive trip.. LoL..
Sighz.. Alot of my other colleagues discussing with themselves: "Bila kita nyer turn nak resign / last day.." I was like... 'huh'? Yes, I know. Alot of work with no OT pay. But they are incentives and benefits: company trips.. free lunches.. bonuses, yearly increments plus promotion increments (to certain staff who management thinks they deserve a promotion). So I was wondering why these pple want to leave?
Yeah. I know.. When there's a better offer anywhere, pple will sure go. So do I. After I collected my certificate (sometime next week), I will show to the management AFTER my graduation cum convocation ceremony (which is in November). I'll see how from there. If they cant promote me BUT they willing to increase my salary, fine I'll stay. If they cant do both.. sighz.. yeah I have to leave BUT I dun like to stay in a job for less than 2 yrs.. thats job hopping! I stayed for 1 yr and 9 mths in Donaldson. I hope and always prayed that I can stay longer in ECSF.
And here's what I found out. Junior secretary, secretary and Senior Secretary.. I thought they're the same. In ECSF.. its NOT the SAME. They're different. Different in terms of level and salary. I have a colleague who was a Secretary at first during her probation and after her probation, the management decides that she cant perform well, they DEMOTE her to a junior secretary and yes HER SALARY is AFFECTED!
I was bewildered! I thought junior secretary and secretary are of the same pay. Hell no.. The difference is not $50 or $100. More than that! Woah.. I am a junior secretary with the salary of S$1650. So if a secretarial post, the pay will be $100++ more than my salary la! Hmm.. I roughly know how much Administrative Officers and Supervisors are being paid la.. Heehe..
FYI, in ECSF senang nak naik pangkat.. U just need tolerance, patience and endurance. Plus, working hard is also the most impt key that leads to promotion. On the contrary, some of the staff resort to do "dirty work" (backstabbing la) to get promoted. I am not going to comment further. K, I would like to welcome my junior from sec sch, HBH to ECSF! She's in Renewals Dept.. No wonder la name and home number very familiar.. Note: I didnt know her home number. The home number starts with 677 - CLEMENTI la.. Duhz..
To MAM, my ex-colleague from Donaldson: AKHIRNYA... ITS FINALLY UR TURN TO GET UR ASS OUT FROM THERE.. Heehe... All the best to u and hope u achieve ur dreams.. *thumbs up*
