PAP Said The Current Pioneer Generation Had Poor Work Attitudes In 1980

[TheMan]

These is what the PAP used to say about the boomer generation aka the pioneer generation
work ethics in the 1980s

[
27 September 1980

Of late, there has also been considerable debate over the diminishing work ethics of our workers. Employers have
complained of the poor attitudes among some of our workers like job hopping, reluctance to do overtime or shift work,
individualistic outlook, lack of initiative and lack of 2 a sense of responsibility. These bad work attitudes were listed in
the EDB and Ministry of Labour reports published in the papers. The VITB's letter on what should be done to improve
work attitudes has also been published

Now lets fast forward to 2015

Its very clear that the PAP considers everyone to be lazy from 1980 to 2015 except ofcourse themselves

This goes to show that the PAP is now giving out pioneer generation packages saying that the pioneers
had built the nation, but on the other hand in 1980 they said this same generation had bad work ethics?
So how can this be?

Is this then not clear to anyone that the pioneer generation packages are a way to get oldies to vote for them

Even then in 1980s the employers said singaporeans were lazy, so al singaporeans are lazy except the PAP and
their cronies and FTs?

The nerve of them to call us 'expensive' when our wages have been artificially depressed by a lack of a minimum wage.

My wages have never been depressed despite working for years. That's because I show good attitude at work, communicate well, have leadership skills and I possess niche professional skills thanks to a good education provided by the PAP government. The other sinkies seriously need to get their act together instead of forever whining for Singapore equivalent of bumiputra rights.

Sucking up to the PAP is not a job.

Many of the low income group are doing manual work. Needless to say, as technology improves, the value of their work diminishes and their salaries will remain stagnant. If you don't study hard, you end up a road sweeper or toilet cleaner. That threat that parents use to tell their kids years ago is still true today.

CEOs may be paid millions, but they are personally responsible for company revenue of billions. Even in a loss-making year, they are still responsible for the overall running of the company, which provides employment for hundreds or thousands of employees. Their pay is just a miniscule fraction of the money that company rakes in, in terms of revenue and/or profits.

Ultimately, businesses pay you exactly what they think you are worth. They may be overpaying you, but that's what they are willing to pay. No company would pay you even $1 more than what you are worth. They would begrudge that amount and eventually either give you more work, or find an excuse to replace you. You see that around sometimes, when sinkies complain that they get retrenched and replaced by 'cheaper, better, faster' foreigners. It's free market forces at at work here.

A pretty fair assessment if you ask me.

I would go with:

PUERILE MATERIALISTIC EGOTESTICLE TOOLS

with their living standard ?

if it is human life , than why pilot are not pay millions since they are responsible of hundreds of lives in a flight ?

in the 60s , 70s , if u are smart u made money for the company,
nowadays if the company made $ u are considered smart.
