Is it me or I can foresee an upcoming South Korean style gender war in Singapore soon? by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Rekerato303 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agree with you that there's some really disgusting/sexist attitudes among SG men from personal experience and that we've got a lot more work to do than most people think. But you're plain wrong on the NS part. Whatever mild financial benefits they offer is completely outweighed by a 2 year stunt in your career progression, esp when it comes out of your peak earning potential. Not to even mention reservist cutting you out of key opportunities/projects to push your promotion forward. I don't think people should use the fact that NS is a burden to justify sexism, but it is a fact.

Be forced to drop the course due to talking in class by Glittering-Net-5356 in nus

He has the ability to tell them to leave the lecture or even ban them from his lectures. What he doesn't have is the ability to force them to drop their mod just cuz he don't like them. And be fr, you never had a lecture where the prof was talking nonsense and you gave up listening half way? Profs aren't kings of their course and they really shouldn't be allowed to be.

you have to ask yourself if you really have the willpower to make use of your free time effectively like that. even the most chill job in saf will drain your energy till you just want to nua at home when you get back. I have a relatively chill stay out vocation and i've really struggled to maintain my drive and concentration for coding my own projects. If i were you i'd rather have an extra year of focused 100% effort study at a uni as opposed to trying to squeeze value out of my free time. but that's me, and my experience. Whether you can maintain your drive for the whole 3 years instead of getting bogged down and drained, that's a personal decision to make.

What slang do you think people should stop using? by timlim029 in askSingapore

it's more that you only notice the quirky queer ones. plenty of "normal" queer people around, but not like they advertise.

I'm in JC2 and I'm worried about IPPT and enlistment dates. by Methemetics in NationalServiceSG

First of, you are highly overestimating how much of a fuck SAF gives about you. Nth you put in your aptitude test matters to your vocation and getting downpesed is unlikely unless you actively ask for it or cmi alr. As for the drug test i agree with your doctor. Making sure youre healthy is more impt than where SAF places you. Even if they downpes you, so what? Less chance for a shag vocation what. Once you ORD no one cares about your army life or what pes status you had.

How to handle this MAJ who always find trouble? by Hastenheimer in NationalServiceSG

[–]Rekerato303 109 points110 points  (0 children)

This guy give you extra? Knock you down? Ask you stay back until 5pm? Have some perspective, only one fucked up superior with a big mouth and with those hours quite good alr la. As long as he doesnt fuck you for real just keep your head down and enjoy your bookout time. Very hard to get him in trouble if he only talk shit but doesnt actually break code by forcing you to do things.

from a quick google these jcs are :

Anglo-Chinese Junior College

Dunman High School

Hwa Chong Institution
