I am a kid, I do saikang.
SMa called me today to ask if i wanted the job. I told her i've already said yes to CAAS and she found out that i didn't know my pay yet. So she urged me to go ask for it because what if they offer $4/5 per hour then what, i can't just plunge blindly. And so i contacted the nice CAAS lady, who got the HR to call me. Ok so i got to know the pay. It was nothing short of traumatising; i couldn't believe what i heard. "I'm sorry i don't understand what you mean by.."
Unfortunately, it's exactly what it means. I could not contain my disbelief so i told her straight:
"T..that's INCREDIBLY low!"
"Yea."
It's so Nazi it's even lower than what macs pay. I pray the circular for allowance increase will jack it up reasonably higher. I do need to support myself in terms of meals and the significantly higher travelling costs. After deliberating for some time and seeking the opinions of some wisemen wang sao, smelly fish and my parents, i'll...i'll absorb the opportunity cost and opt for CAAS. Experience > Money. I have to constantly remind myself of that. The only thing holding me back now is that i don't know if i'll get the experience they promised.
No point blahblah-ing now. I hope for the best.
