I'll be working at Acts Consultant Team(s) Pte Ltd
And yes...
I've gotten my SIP placement at last.
At Acts Consultant Team Pte Ltd.
It's right smack in the middle of busy Orchard Rd, slapped right beside the huge Zara outlet at Wheelock Place, situated right opposite Lido and conveniently within walking distance of Indochine i.e. in the heart of a shopping haven and city of gorgeous people (hopefully).
Dress code does not seem so stringent. Semiformal office attire. No jeans no slippers allowed.
Open-toed shoes are allowed.
Flowy skirts are allowed.
Cardigans are allowed.
Dresses are allowed.
Let us rejoice!
But the best of the best is yet to come....
cos i'll be working with baby Rachie!! (a familiar face!), Cynthia and Shee Min!!
Like don't you just wanna scream right now. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
This is exciting! I'll be working with Rachie that shoppaholic cum alcoholic! (we have already made plans to shop at Zara during lunch breaks and after work, chill over drinks at Indochine and just basically soak up all the wondrous glory Town has to offer!)
And not forgetting sieving out goodlookers (we're both praying there'll be hot guys at our office. highly unlikely though!), getting some hot sweaty action in the office pantry (alright alright, im just kidding alright! so shut ur jaw shut sweetie u look horrible with ur mouth hanging open like that!) and having someone to turn to in mock horror/exasperation/frustration and to throw a bitchfit on (upon realization that we cannot, for eg, balance e freakin BS for nuts).
Phew. What a mouthful.
Anyways, I'm kinda excited la. SIP doesn't seem so bleak after all with Rachie around plus the nice working environment is a bonus. However, my pay is..... is...... is.... *turns away and breaks down crying*
ooh my gawd I can't even bear to utter it! I'm stuttering as I'm saying this..... its... its...

a mere SGD 440.
There. I said it.
It's fucking peanuts la!!!!!!!!!!!! It's the lowest of the lowest!! That's the minimum cap for paying us. And our job scope is wide, baby. We cover all areas like Audit, Accounting, Taxation and "office boy" work like photocopying and paper shredding! Like, pay me more for my service can??
Alright, I'm not complaining. :)
Not really prepared for work this Weds though as I've yet to buy a single piece of working clothing!
By hook or by crook, gotta get those done by tomorrow! I don't have much choice.
PS: As an afterthought, GUYS!! The dinner is confirmed to be on Friday after work at 7 pm. Billy Bombers Marina Square. See you guys and have an enriching working experience! We can exchange gossips about work on Fri k? Smoooooch!
