the private sector is too competitive and jobs are rather hard to come by, especially when you reached middle age.Originally posted by rabbit10:Hmm..gonna ORDing soon..in fact next mth leh..

he has reasons to be afraid. the job market is not kind to older workers and those without experience.Originally posted by zenden9:Come on! I helping him to forget the dilema of leaving 10yrs of service! (Don think too deep and stress yrself)

Too bad this is singapore and you have made the unusual decision to sign on to SAF. i think you can go out to try whether you can survive in the outside world.
If not, go back to SAF and sign on again -
just curious.
will SAF accept somone who has ORD after contract service? -

About 5 years ago ( middle of year 2000) SAF comes out with this Premium Plan thingy for the Specialist. Those who previously signed 6 years contract can opt to extend another 4 years to make it into Premium Plan 1 (PP1 that is 10 years contract service)
Upon completion of 10 years service, u'll be KICKED OUT less those minority few who can continue their career in the SAF (they call it PP2) until retirement.
The market is bad so no matter it's in the SAF or commercial line, both also "axe" away people. Ironically, from what I know, all along SAF is shortage of manpower yet they still want to kick people and yet BOOST about their Operational capablity, especially manning of vessels, equipment etc... with minimum manpower.Originally posted by ohcheeyong:Too bad this is singapore and you have made the unusual decision to sign on to SAF. i think you can go out to try whether you can survive in the outside world.
