Screwed System

Once a upon a time, there is a certain school in a certain country. How perfect it looks, with its "hospital like" facade and seemingly remarkable reuptation.
Lets dig some dirt!
(guess dirt digging has become Singapore's favourite pasttime since the NKF saga)


A certain director of a certain school, been in the same office for more than 10 years. Believe it or not? 10 f**king years and still don't feel like shifting his/her butt.


Fine, people may argue "what's wrong with being in office for more than 10 years if the school is prospering?". Indeed this certain school certainly is propering, I mean in the sense of dollars and cents. As Yoda might say- Driven by greed the director is.


Prices of items sold in the school's shopping district are all inflated. Hard to believe? Just compare the cost for yourself. What f**king angered me is the fact that employees of this shopping district are NOT paid a damn single cent!
This certain school would just claim that all the revenue generate would go back into the system to enhance the free labour's learning experience.
Employees would not be paid, instead be graded.
Very cunning way for this employer to ensure running of the school- tapping on the student's only fear and nightmare which is of course a F grade.



17year old students reaching home just before midnight often on weekdays due to late school activities and lectures. 4 to 5 hours of break in between lessons.
Something wrong? Of course!
You might want to believe the director's very wise excuse: WE PROVIDE YOU WITH THE BREAK FOR YOU GUYS TO DO YOUR PROJECTS/GROUPWORK AND ACCESS TO OUR SCHOOL FACILITIES.


What a load of rubbish! Unless he is totally ignorant he would be well aware that students do not have projects/groupwork every single day for the full 16 weeks.


The real reason: there's a lack of staff. Staff are quitting yet the director refuse to employ more. Most are working on double work load thus schedule are so packed they don't even have time for their own students.


Dictactorial, manipulative and bearing uncunning similarity to Mr. Tee Tee Durian that's how you could describe our dear director. Feedbacks and suggestions by employees were never taken into consideration, Warning: it would only backfire.


Ok that's all I shall stop for now. Think about it.
