Yes, nowadays I heard retired SAF regulars all (if not all, then mostly) will be offered a job in a govt linked company.... this is regardless of rank.

 

There are good and bad points to this thou....it up to how you think.

Bro TVT, how are you?

I trust after a good night sleep, you are all better today and leave what was yesterday in the past.

 

You were very civilized throughout the entire accusation, which demonstrates the kind of person you are. Well done.

 

Good job prospect. Thanks for the advice, appreciate it.

Thank you David, and apologies for you to worry about me. I slept well last night but on the other hand, I still wanna seek the truth ..... or least till the Mods give their analysis, if they do give it.

 

Re your post about regulars, the best is to seek advice of regulars themselves to know what it is really like in there, then decide for you son.

 

Every career path as its pros and cons. There is no perfect job in the world.

I think the rank matters. My cousin was a Regular but left after 6 years. IIRC he was a captain. He couldn't find a job for a long time. Finally managed to get one working at the bank.
