60 year old sacked by FT


Below is a letter by a Wei Yi to TRS.
 

‘My father was terminated last week as a senior waiter by his Pinoy supervisor for no apparent reason. He had been working for the hotel restaurant since the 1990s and is well-regarded by both his colleagues and bosses....
 

The worst part is that this was only 2 months after the new Pinoy joined the hotel as the F&B manager. My father had complained to HR which then did an investigation but then the supervisor said that he was too slow and this did not give the hotel a good image….
 

Although I have long heard of middle-aged Singaporeans getting replaced by foreigners, I cannot actually believe how suay that it would happen to my own dad. Worse, I work for the HR industry and an increasing number of Pinoys have joined the industry.
 

With a target of 6.9 million, it seems that less than 50% of our population will be native Singaporeans and the only jobs for them are in the government sector, NS as well as taxi drivers. It would really be damn disastrous if we don’t act fast and kick the PAP out.’
 

This is the new normal. But fret not. My advice is for the sacked employee to go for upgrading training. Then he can get a new job as a table cleaner in the foodcourts or hawker centres. And the upgrading training is heavily subsidised, maybe free some more. '
 

The 60 year old uncle can then work with dignity until 80 or maybe 90. Be grateful and say thank you for being a citizen. The Govt will take care of him all the way.
 

If not happy, can go and see Gilbert Goh for some pep talks. Sinkies are really so lucky.

No one is going to give you chances. You have to make your own "lucky" breaks.

Those of you still sleeping, enjoy your dreams of a "perfect and fair" world ;-)

Pioneer Generation Package or no, one more sixty year old and his daughter and perhaps the whole family voting with their heart instead of their brain.

Sad really. All because for some reason or other, this sink hole is so obsessed with cheap labour from India, PRC and Pinoyland.

Well, like they say, the winds of change are blowing and that duffer in the hot seat better do something fast.

Vote PAP and have a Pinoy sack your father.
Well done PAP!
Come, I clap for you!

We better start teaching our children to vote Opposition when they are young.
Or else our children will have to look after us when we get sacked by Pinoys.

Will there be cronies also become unemployed?
What about the $2 companies?

You make Singaporeans cry.
Singaporeans also make you cry.

Sg gov should set up an organisation to help sinkies find work irregardless of age instead they spend money on helping foreigners find work here, processing their visas and their entire clan visas, training them, giving medical care to them, rewarding them etc. I am not anti foreigners, I just think that the gov should spend their money more wisely.

To protect us Singaporeans, we must choose the opposition. We tell opposition to pass a law that FT must never sack a Singaporean, regardless how capable or how hard working the Singaporean is, until he konk off or he choose to retire. If he don't want to retire, then he can continue work as long as he can walk, like take walking stick go work.

FT of course, cannot sack 60 year old local. Like that where got law ? Local can sack FT but it must never be the other way. Wait till 2016 then they know.

Agree.
Traitors & Aliens make Singaporeans cry.
It's time Singaporeans make Traitors & Aliens cry.

Sacking a 60 yr old man is more reasonable than sacking a 50 yr one.
Army generals are seldom beyond 50 yr old in sg.

Why not sack a 90 year old MP?

It is blessing in disguise, at least, your father now know who he should get even with.

Yes, survive and living well is the priority.

I guess many PAP Ministers must be sending their resume to George Yeo by now.

Send resume to George Yeo no use, must send to George Yeo's boss.

George Yeo, although Chairman of a company, was also appointed as chairman by a boss or group of bosses, tio bo?

>>1131 -"dont forget we are small country."

Many smaller countries are richer than bigger countries or resource rich countries. It does not matter whether the country is big or small, all is in the hands, mind and will.
