Why GLCs employ so many Foreigner customer service staff ?

[batman1]

honestly, when u read or hear employers that give --> "Sporeans dun wan to do..".. I rarely believe them nowadays.. last time.. maybe.. but not now when there are so many feedback from PMEs and even fresh grads who can't secure jobs.

The shortcut is to employ foreigners.. it's the fastest.. and at most times.. the cheapest alternative.
But did the employers and biz owners actually look into WHY the job does not appeal to SG locals?
If i hear or read them say "not of high status", i feel like slapping them.
Give real figures on how many gave that response, and also be transparent on the figures of those who don't want to do the job, why, and also on those who did.. but left.

Since the gahmen likes to do and show statistics so much.. let's go down this road and ask them for REAL HARD FACTS!
I bet wif u, 99% will not dare disclose the true picture.. cos most jus wan to save on hiring costs.. and jus skip over the local and hire the foreigner.. and sometimes can even "force" the foreigner to further wage cuts.

IF u believe the govt will produce true statistics on the jobless singaporeans in singapore,then pigs can fly !
My friend related to me his story.He registered with CDC for employment assistance.The CDC Career Consultant (High sounding name but actually only an ordinary civil servant) interviewed him and stated firmly that he must attend interview appointments when contacted and he must stay in employment with the employer /company for at least 3 months.The Career Consultant gave him a false impression and also false hope that there are many job vacancies waiting for him.After the interview,no one from CDC ever contacted him again.But after 6 months out of the blue
one night the Career Consultant contacted him to find out whether he has found a job .If he has found a job,any job,whether full-time or part-time,the Career Consultant will close his file,one jobless digit deleted.My friend told the Career Consultant :"What u mean I have found a job ? All the while I have waiting for your call and u have not arranged for any interview appointments as promised to me !" From that day onwards,he vowed that he would never contact CDC or any Govt Agency for job assistance.
Is this how CDC or Govt Agency sell out the citizens of singapore in times of their need ???
And we have this Doughlas Fool proclaiming that although he is willing to pay $3K he could not find a cleaner .This farking braggart liar is lying though his teeth and we all know that he is telling lies to the media for free publicity of his company.He didn't tell the truth of the scope of work :12 hrs per day,6 day-week ,1st person to open the door,last person to close the door,do housing chores at the boss' house,feed the boss' dog,on standby 24 hours a day even on a rest day,even suck the dick of the boss Doughlas Fool as and when required.........................etc.And don't forget,even if Doughlas Fool employ u today,he can sack u next week and give the reason that your performance is poor.
Doughlas Fool is the typical Singapore Employer in Singapore i.e.Most Singapore Employers are nasty bastards.
Fark the PAP !!!
Fark the 60% !!!
Fark the Singapore Employers !!!

Hello to TS,

I dun think t68 believes in any statistics that doesn't show fully where, how and exactly who they got these figures from.
And your fren's experience with CDC is exactly the same as mine.
You know what was adding insult to injury when I went there?
Facing a Indian GIRL.. with a job title as "Career Consultant".. and she IS in her late twenties.. and me in my early 40s.
What's the insult? Would you believe that a 20+ girl would have more experience in hunting for jobs than a 40+ person?
Perhaps.. if the 40+ perso stayed in a job for more than 30 years.. but my resume din show that.. so I was quite miffed that the CDC did not hire a REAL CONSULTANT that would give credibility to it's helping PMEs.
But t68 tells me that e2i is the place to go.. and not CDC, for PMEs.. as CDC mostly caters to lower education citizens.
I really don't know.. but everytime that lady from CDC calls.. and asks, "you have a job yet?", I feel like it's adding salt to my already deepening wounds.
I once told her, "When I have a perm job, YOU will be the FIRST to know.. because I want to show you that YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME.. I DID ALL THE WORK MYSELF!"

Well, I want to join your slogan.. Fuck the PAP! Fuck the daft 60%! And FUCK YOU to those Employers (SG locals or not) for taking the shortcut of employing CHEAP labour and not looking into solving manpower/labour shortage issues from a long-term viewpoint!!

Why SingTel employ so many Filipino customer service staff ?
Most of the time,they call up to promote a new product or service and we don't know what they are mumbling about.U mean Singaporeans cannot do this type of job ?Then our education system is useless and should be thrown into the gutter !
Why DBS employ so many Filipino customer service staff ?
Most of the time don't know what they are talking about,don't know they are talking in Tagalog or English.


and they want to promote credit card and insurance policies .Once,a lady Filipino called up to say whether "I need accident ? " After some clarifications,she meant "personal accident policy ".WTF,u mean Singaporeans cannot do this type of job ? Then all our education in Singapore is useless and should be thrown into the gutter !
KNNCCB to the PAP !
KNNCCB to the 60 % !

Yesterday this Pinay irritated me like hell when I phoned DBS hotline 1800 2222222!

First the pinay bitch made me answer a bunch of questions, some of which are really irrelevant given that all critical questions were previously answered correctly. When I told her my purpose of phoning was to request my bank account statement. She replied tersely that they all have been mailed out & it takes 5 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I said I did not receive any but needed it urgently, she just tell me to wait another 5 days! WTF. Why I do I need to live with this shit? DBS takes my money, pay little or no interest at all & lend out same for atrocious profits. In exchange DBS customers get such shitty treatments? I understand the service is outsourced and the Pinay was actually talking to me from Phillipines! If service is acceptable, fine BUT it is not. Why can't we spend money earned in/from Singapore in Singapore? Is this the friggin reason why we are also paying A Ah Neh Gupta salary from money earned in Singapore?

Down with DBS which is really poking holes in our economy.

It's good to get the frustrations and anger out of your chest,it makes u feel LG (Living Good) and keep your sanity.
Some law-abiding and hard-working sinkees only vent their frustrations once every 5 years during General Election and ended up having severe mental illness and migraine.
Remember,the more u condemn the PAP,the healthier u become.
Fark the PAP !!!
Fark the 60% !!!
Fark the Singapore Employers !!!
