I wonder why he feels the need to emphasize that he paid for his studies using his own savings. Is a 30+ guy paying for his own studies so rare that it is worth the bytes he writes his "ordeal" on?

A CV with a lengthy period of time under 'SAF' is not a desirable thing.
If you're not a SAF scholar, it's better to serve and fuck off. Otherwise, you better make sure you can stay in the SAF till you retire.
Should have known this when you signed on.

He is indirectly blaming the government for exhausting his savings because he couldn't land a job despite re-training to obtain higher and relevant qualifications.

And there goes the myth of "upgrade yo skillz!" to secure gainful employment.
All it does is make those people who conduct the courses richer... part of the ever-lucrative education sector.

Wonder what job was he doing in the 5 years between 2009 and 2014 ?
Why was he made "jobless" in 2014 ?
Was there any referees in his resume that can testify to his performance in his last job ?
A degree doesn't equate automatically to a job. It is a basic requisite for most PMET job.
Attitude, experience and good record can make the difference if you are vying for the job with others.

SAFmen arent worth anything in the real world. Their ex-number 1 is screwing up big time in SMRT while another piece of shit messes up NOL.

Ironically in the private sector, any cv under the saf is not viewed positively. Just a gut feel though.
Perhaps the perception is that whatever learnt is not applicable in the real world. Unless one is parachuted into those glcs for ceo or vp. Other than that, I don't think there is any chances of them heading in any mNCs, what more in those Singapore private company.
Sad but seems to ring true.

no but it emphasises that he is another sinkie useless shit who squandered his precious and much needed savings to sustain his sorry ass on education qualifications thinking it will somehow make him employable and more redeemable and less useless in the eyes of the employers but it didnt so now he is about to be a starving sinkie shit.
iv seen this phenomenon in much of the middle age generation and my mother and fathers generation,they thought they could go out after 20 years of slogging and pursue their academic dreams and look for a new line of work but often times it just ends up in nought and they end up working the same job they always did except they be a few years older and 30 to 70k more broke.looks like the education industry is a good way on selling sinkies on pipe dreams

It boils down to networking, knowing the right person.
The whole thing about writing letters to apply for jobs is a red herring. Pulling the right strings is all it takes.

i agree,unless u are a elite scholar or top 1 to 5 percentile of your age cohort and genuinely smart,education is more or less wasted on the general population.even being above average in your studies or the top 10 or 20 percentile does not quite cut it.either your the best or you are a nobody.dunno why sinkies or 80 percent of the general population waste so much time on education,for most of them an adequate education is good enough,they are better off focusing on economic activities and work.stop wasting so much time and inflicting so much pain and suffering on your children,they are never going to be the next rhodes scholar or presidential scholar.it is counter productive and not cost effective.
