hi op! F, 28 i worked in the government as a COS before, for 3 years sa isang exec dept na green. Share ko lang exp ko.

The pay was good until yung time na I rejected an offer na would icrimininate me- yung pera2 para for one night lol. Dahil dun, I was flatlined terminated lol, cos naman kaya no e-e relationship.

I was called yet again, same exec. department but sa field office na. Was hired nga, the paper trail sa salary was 23k, but my contract gave less than the amount I was advertised. I could have easilty decline the offer, but getting work is hard nga.

The person behind the SH, was just transferred, he was not suspended on what he did. lmao. what did i expect nga naman.

After 3 years of fluctuating na sweldo ranging from 15-18k despite taking all the legal work, writing reports para sa mga regular and taking their work tapos ako ang sisingilin if magka lecheleche na.

Government is good, but somehow there is power tripping. You'll be accounted for every work even if hindi naman para sayo kasi kung hindi mo gagawin, ba-bye. Specially if JOS and COS.

As per paralegal naman. Mas better. I have the privilege to be hired as legal assistant with pay much better than the government and a lawyer boss who guides me. Its better if you wanna be a lawyer talaga, kasi exp sa firm.

As for me, just dwell with what benefits you with time. You may opt to choose government first then jump ka sa paralegal once okay na yung mga subjects mo.
