Did I?

Heard many instances of my frens getting a better starting pay than me... Haiz.. now a bit begining to wonder whether I've made the correct choice to becoming a software engineer, or more specifically a firmware one... According to him, we can make much more by becoming a project manager.. or moving into project management cos the pay should be higher over there and u dun have to crack ur brains like mad like when u are a developer on a project... Anyway for me now, I dun think my interest is in management lor... no doubt it's a possiblity tat we may get into it..but I think for now my interest lies in development...
But in some sense he is right, now we are debt ridden by the study loan, so hack care the nature of the job, as long as it pays alot who cares... like DSTA, but according to some "deserters" , the job at DSTA sucks...
I dunno why but the more I think of it I feel that my fren's view is abit simple-minded lor... Give u more $$ of cos ask u to work harder/more lah right? which coy will be so good to pay u alot of $$ to slack around? wif more $$, means also more responsibilities. Things in life is not tat simple right? U are clever but ur employers are also not stupid...makes sense?

Who won't want to have a very high pay? at the same time I also want a job that interests me..
To tell u the truth when I heard that people got more than $3000 tarting pay, I also a bit sad/disappointed cos I would say damn why can't I get so much? I think I decided too early, forfieted my chance too soon..

Anyway I think siemens VDO is a good place for me to learn alot of things... like whether I am suitable for this line, good enough? competent enough...? Anyway I am contented wif my current life, current job... to be content is bliss right? just think that although my pay is not the highest but it's also not the lowest.. however, I think it would b better if we had some OT pay kekeke

"RnD Software Engineer" stills sounds more appealing to me haha
