May 14, Singapore - In Singapore's hectic pace of life, work-life balance is a misnomer and something that is considered unachievable unless one takes a pay-cut. To ask for job satisfaction and personal fufillment, might be asking too much. But is it really?
Our reporter spoke to Mr. Hentak Kaki, who is a regular in the armed forces, who thinks otherwise. "I have had such personal job fufillment with the armed forces as a regular," he said. "Obviously, I could be earning more outside even though I only have PSLE, but I am living my childhood dream of being paid to sit in the mess and drink beer, and order NSFs around."
"Obviously, the work-life balance is great, because we don't do much work aside from ordering NSFs around and get them to do the work while we take the credit," he added. "Singaporeans always complain that they have no job satisfaction or work-life balance. That's because they don't know where to look. I even have time to work out, look at my arms and how huge they are from all the balls I've been carrying."
The armed forces have been carrying on a recruitment blitz in recent times, featuring sweet young things to entice Singaporeans daft enough to sign on based on the assumption that you will have a chance with the chiobu even though there are like another 800 people in the camp staring at her every move. It is likely that this strategy is targeted at daft people who would like a stellar career path like Mr Hentak Kaki in having to salute and call someone young enough to be your son, "Sir" instead of being a scholar, which everyone thinks is not as cool even though they get promoted every year whether they fuck up or not.
