Woot! Rota 2 got the title of best locker room! The prize - 5 x $20 NTUC vouchers, courtesy from OC. Half of it will be used for buying basic necessities for the coming old folk's home visit and the other half will be in our rota fund.
Yesterday our NSFs nemesis treated all the chinese colleagues (including NSFs) to a meal of KFC cause he just struck 4D. lolx That's nice of him, but then again he'll still be his old self. No doubt about it.
Today went for that mandatory career fair for the soon-to-be-ORD-ing NSFs. Luckily adil went to pick us (dino and azami) with his borrowed car, if not I wouldn't even know how to go there on my own! xD I don't know why I was chosen when there's still one more ORD-ing NSF who have yet to go. Anyway, I feel this career fair was rather limited as there was about 10-20 organisations and companies setting up their stalls to do pitching. Also, most of them who participated cater more to those with average or lower education qualifications.
One of the participating companies, which I shall not disclose, did something rude and, in their own way, pragmatic. I was with the other 2 fellow HomeTeam NSFs - one with a diploma, the other with 2 'o's. The pitcher just told us that we need at least 4 'o's and said that we could always find them when we've got at least 4 'o's. Afterwhich, he just concentrated on the diploma guy and me without even engaging with the other guy. I bet the pitcher didn't even realise that he left while we were talking half way. What a REAL WORLD.
Anyway, I felt that the career fair could be done much better. Even the other NSFs thought so too. Non-centralised location, mandatory attendance, not enough seats, food was the same usual stuffs, limited organisations, similar job opportunities from the various participating organisations...I give it 3/10.
Thanks to adil again for sending me back home as well. Terimah kesih.
*I must start thinking of reasons to reject all the offers I'll receive from the various organisations I've reluctantly put my particulars on it by next week! =x
