    @LokiJr depende siguro sa state pero overall maganda naman ang outlook. Medyo hindi lang maganda lagay ng ibang industry sector (esp gov jobs). Ex nagtangalan sa mga medical and admin profession sa public health. Yung city hall i-outsource yung IT dev nila sa india. Siguro gawa ng pressure para mag-surplus, who knows.

    Hindi kasama.. tsaka walang natutulog dito kapag tanghali. After lunch bumabalik na sila sa kanilang desk at nagtratrabaho. Yung iba naman nakikipag chicka ng ilang minuto o kaya nagja-jogging o walking outside office o punta ng mall dun mag lunch.

    Just wondering...sorry if OT itong question.

    Sa Australia po ba eh nag iissue ng IC (identity card) for PR, 457, 475 etc..?. Like here in SG pag PR ka may blue IC ka, tas pag di PR meron S-pass, E-pass atbp. And then pag di PR (475 or 457 visa holder) kelangan ba kumuha lage OEC if mag travel to and from Aussie to Pinas?

    Thanks..
