Aeronautical engineers are treated like dogs in Singapore lorOriginally posted by fudgester:
My prof has been bugging me to join the petrochemical industry instead of the aerospace industry after I graduate.
His logic was that aeronautical engineers are not being compensated well in Singapore.... and besides, what I learn in aeronautical engineering is highly applicable to the petrochemical industry as well.
They are treated like GODS overseas though
Get into the petrochemical Industry
You can get things like 1 yr bonus
MPB is thinking if he should continue with SIA when his bond expires or work for someone else -
My options are still open....Originally posted by Fatum:get into oil ....
the money's incredible .....
And I may not even work as an engineer after I graduate. -

So.... our media is 'credible' in spite of being in the 154th position in the world press freedom rankings? -
press-freedom.. that's something bandied around...
doesn't make the stories less factual...
what they are not allowed to print is just yanked... the rest are factual... which makes the stories credible..
however, the analyses of the paper will probably be taken with a pinch of salt.. but they will be factual...
it beats the hell out of freedom to print "Elvis weds Martian and is living in El Salvador"Originally posted by fudgester:You're right, Bear.... the old man has lost it.

Well, I was considering a lot of options prior to studying engineering.Originally posted by Fatum:now you're thinking ! .....
I was considering journalism... but SPH turned down my scholarship application.
I was considering chemistry.... but opportunities are limited in Singapore.
I was considering law..... but I decided that it's not the kind of thing I would want to do for a living.
Hell, I was for a time considering joining the police force as a detective. -
i am changin my nick....let's see if it works...
-
I wouldn't give too much to these rankings ...
the leftist circle responsible for such rankings is a small and tight one ... and some opposition figures in Singapore are tight with this circle ....
I think we are pretty good actually ... especially now with new media going around ...
the fact that I know a lot about what's going on in Singapore while in Canada speaks a lot eh ....
I've stopped reading the newspapers here, cos you know it's all biased bull crap anyways ... (our local rag is rightist conservative) .. it's the same anywhere .... -
chances are ... whatever you get for your first job, won't be something you'd want to do for the rest of your life ....Originally posted by fudgester:Well, I was considering a lot of options prior to studying engineering.
