its all a big scam...

O.o

o.O

omg this eugene has finaly updated once again! Whoo!

Ok here's some super quick updates: Exams over, currently on student attachment.

Ok, so the school calls it SIP, also known as Student Internship programme. But what JianHua mentioned on his blog, it should be renamed to SEP, Student Exploitation programme. Well for him it may not be, coz he's getting paid. a small sum

bedder than none. fine. But as for some of us in SINGHEALTH, our current pay is:

$0

Wow such an amazing sum, now tts really exploitation. Ok, maybe we shouldnt use such strong words. SIP is fun. well at

least for me, enjoying myself most of the time. Except the times when i have to rantings from my supervisor. but that's ok, its

all part of the worklife. Submitting to authorities... Lets all just treat it as a learning experience there.

Learning experience. The same reason (or excuse) they give us when they are not paying us.

"oh oh, we're sorry we couldn't give any allowence, but remember that valuable experiences in the working life is what you should be attaining at the end"

erm ok. but if you guys wanna make the SIP programme so 'alike' to the workinglife, why the zero allowance? Sources from other attachment students working in SGH, that NP students (or NYP students, shit i forgot), on events that their company do

not pay their students, the School will instead give their students a minimum allowance!! (pls correct me if im mistaken here)

amazing policy...

Do you see any doctors in SGH who sees his patients for free?

another thing, Victor made a very interesting point a couple of days ago while we were having lunch. Students that we know who are receiving an alowence for SIP averages about $420. (i think) So lets be fair and round it down to about $400. SIP last

for 5 months, so 400 multiply by 5 gives us $2000.

So... looking into another perspective, for those who are not getting paid for SIP, we are indirectly Paying this 2000 dough Just

so that we can do our Major Project at our workplace. Becoz w/o this MP, we will not graduate.

Conclusion: We at SINGHEALTH are paying $2000, just so that we can do our final year projects, while ppl at the other companies (who are receiving allowances) do not have to pay anything to their Project.

paying 2k just to do our projects?!! SCAM!!!!!

Firstly i got scammed by SBS transit, and now scammed by my own school... - -a

SIgh... life is tough man... whenever there's opportunities to scam, they will do it... Zzzz... I'll brb for now, shall continue eating my lunch.
