Serving the public for 10 years!
Year 1 - confirmation after probation and initial RO’s retirement at old age after 45 years of service.
Year 2 - Suffered doing 2 to 4 pax workload
Year 3 - Promotion denied by new RO
Year 4 - Suffered doing 2 to 4 pax workload
Year 5 - Suffered doing 2 to 4 pax workload
Year 6 - Promotion denied by 不死的RO
Year 7 - Finally promotion after transfer and new RO
Year 8 - Suffered doing 2 to 3 pax workload
Year 9 - Suffered doing 2 to 3 pax workload
Year 10 - Second promotion after reorganization and new RO
Year 11 - Thinking of mid career upskill and change job to earn more money

If follow the usual path of every 3rd year, by now I should have been manager and next year, 2023 will be due to be senior manager.

My peers are staying in 5-room HDB or EC with their own car and kids but I still slogging daily with my hardworking wife we just owned our very own first small (2 bedroom) HDB from BTO. My salary is around 30% of my peers.

Diploma Holder? 2 promotion is hit ceiling already lah, still promote what?

Did at year 7!

RO is problematic, irrelevant, unmarried, old auntie, BBFA that constantly sabotages and worries that I’m here to snatch her iron rice bowl (she not degree holder but joined so long ago that her annual leave is 28 days that kind) - previously under male manager with family and grownup kids is very good at my 1st year he treated me like one of his sons but then he had to retirement.

HR closed both eyes most JLB is HR and even that they themselves collapsing internally with the huge mess they’ve created in organization that turnover is very high with most staff staying for 1 or 2 years at the maximum.

Have you considered switching to the private sector? May not be easy to switch to a managerial position so you are likely to start from the ground level, although I believe the remuneration should be higher than what you are getting now.

But take note that the pace and workload are likely to be faster and heavier than in your current role. Something you will need to be aware of and adjust.

GXGX on BTO.
Beware of no husband woman.

 

[yobyella]

started at $1600 (10 years ago)

[cryptocraft]

[DarkStarer]

How can u stay 10 years and promote twice still earn so little. With promotion should hit $4k liao

 

[Weng123]

Can go for assisted or take tcm to improve chances of having one

 

[TDRam]

i suspect he is not even diploma holder tbh

whr got diploma 10 yrs ago starting pay only 1600. most likely NITEC or higher NITEC. did u go for diploma and degree?

 

[tankgunner]

at least you don't have to worry about kena retrenched.

 

[Weng123]

Suggest you request for transfer to another department with new bosses. Sure your pay has doubled but 3.2k after 10 years is objectively very low. Like comparable to bus driver pay.

Or you further your education by getting a diploma or degree.

I joined 10 years ago as division II diploma holder and has since attained my degree years ago
10 years ago was in crisis recession during 2008 even COE dropped to $180
is low ball but fresh out with no experience is like that being low ball

 

[swenson]

Education level is extremely important in Public Sector. Sad but true fact.

Try private sector for a change 3-4 years and then go back to PS with experience, if still willing to try

 

[Tayliatorhard]

Usually those who claim they r doing 2,3 people workload are very inefficient and always doing something else at work.

Just saying.

If have time to say they are busy, means they are not really busy.

Even in private sectors where profits are the main concerns, taking on extra work load is a norm.

 

[alvincy]

Senior Exec?

10 years ago not 2012/2013? 2008 was like 14 years ago. This means you have worked for 14 to 15 years to attain your current salary and not as you mention 10 years.

I think that's a big red flag for a diploma holder. Your information like not consistent de....
