Desperate to make sure he fulfills all his orders for Chinese New Year (8 Feb), the boss of Uggli Muffins is dishing out more dough in the hopes of enticing people to work for him as a stall assistant – to the tune of 2 times the typical market rate.
The job sounds simple enough – you don’t need any prior job experience, just a pretty smile (because those muffins are already damn uggli).
But Towkay says that despite the sweet pay package on the table – which doesn’t even include bonus yet – he’s only been able to find one suitable worker after looking for help for one month.
Most fresh university graduates in Singapore would be thanking their lucky stars to land a job in the private sector that lands them S$3000 a month.
So if you’re still job-hunting, or unemployed and sitting on your ass playing Xbox games the whole day, why not brush your teeth and see if you make the cut?

Seriously if you are interested, you’d just goggle his company address and make an effort to contact him instead of expecting him to whatsapp you like you are the bloody towkay!

You are doomed. It’s you who are finding job now, there are hundred – thousands of singaporean / malaysian looking for an opportunity to work each day. You are not qualified to work if you don’t look up for urself instead of PM’ING..
No thanks

This one never say how many off day a week
Lets assume 1 off day a week lah.
12hrs x 6 days = 72 hrs work week
Normal work 44hr work week
Assuming using pure figures. 1 month pay is 4 weeks
Muffin is 72 x 4 = 288hrs
Normal is 44 x 4 = 176hrs
No need to take bonus into consideration.
muffin 3K divide by 288hrs. $10plus per hour
Assuming poly starter. 2k.
2K divide by 176hrs . is $11.36 per hour.
Assume degree starter. 3K
3K divide by 176. $17plus an hour.
Summary. don’t bullshit. it is common sense
Muffin working hours is slightly below poly hourly pay and work 1.75 months of work in 1 month.
So? Conclusion. Pay peanuts u get monkey. Pay Cucumber. Monkey also won’t come.

Is those days …most foodstall runs by family. I think this is not a Singapore issue …everywhere in the world have difficulty in getting worker to work in small food stall. Foreign work can because is worth it for them (salary x3 or x5 send back home in echange rate). Honestly not many want to take this prospect. May i ask? How my parents want their children to work as helper in food stall? Please don’t propogate the matter of not enough foreign worker. Or can’t find local worker. Go get your family or children to help.
