RadX Moderator November 26, 2009 Share November 26, 2009 Still got 13 month...bah SINGAPORE: Civil servants will receive a one-off year-end payment of 0.25 month, capped at $750. This is in addition to the 13th month payment. The Public Service Division said that the one-off payment is being made as there will be no Annual Variable Component (AVC) payment for 2009. It said in a news release that rank and file staff will get the full 0.25 month payment while the $750 cap will help maintain wage restraint The PSD added that the one-off payment is in line with the call by the Tripartite Partners(employers, unions and government) to acknowledge employees ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerdyfrog Neutral Newbie November 26, 2009 Share November 26, 2009 General sentiments of the public eyes, an assumption. ISA go away. "Sacrifice the small fishes to let the public have a false impression, but the big fishes dun mind the reduction of small worms when they have bigger catch every month." "Maybe next april, the big fishes will get a big performance worm for reducing SO MANY worms payout for the OCEAN." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kangadrool Supersonic November 26, 2009 Share November 26, 2009 1 month = 4 weeks 1 year = 52 weeks Therefore, 1 year = (52 / 4) = 13 months. Not really a bonus. It's annual wage supplement. By right, it's your entitlement. By left, ............. [bigcry] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the wordings on 'Barricade', my fave character in the Transformers movie! It's a parody of the "To Protect and To Serve" motto of the police force in America. I found that extremely cool, and because I am forever a Decepticon fan, I thought it to be a very befitting slogan on a car as cool as the 'Stang TO PUNISH AND ENSLAVE!!!

NB.. that's wat u get when u got 'scholars'/'smart alecs' who are earning so much that they can't be bothered about how the people at the lower end of the scale is thinking... they can easily afford a new house or car but those who are at the lower scale may need the money for their daily necessities Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
