The grass is always greener on the other side

"Do you prefer working or studying?"

Having worked at UOB for 6 months prior to my course of study, I'd say working beats studying (somehow).

Here's why:
If you're working,

1. You get MONEY!
2. You get paid to do your work!
3. You don't have to bring your work home! (Depends largely on the type of job/boss u have)
4. You probably won't have to worry about deadlines as much.
5. You get money!!!
6. your work doesn't generally require you to do as much research! (I'm talking reading journals and doing Harvard referencing)
7. You get employee benefits!
8. You get free food and drinks! (assuming your company has adequate level of employee welfare)
9. You get money!!!
10. You can use that money to hire a part-time housekeeper so you won't have to do household chores!
11. YOU GET MONEY!!!


Of course, being a student, you can:

1. have flexible time
2. skip lessons
3. have school hols
4. choose who to hang with
5. productivity measured by grades
6. responsible for self only
7. student perks (not much though)
8. Bitch about your classmates and don't have to worry it will come back and bite you in the ass
9. Get allowance from your mom
10. Stare at your reflection in the mirror and fret about the numerous zits



I guess as a student, you have much less worries except for projects and exams. Then again, I'm practical. I want MONEY.
Evidently, working beats studying.
