PV is not dirty work, even for toilet cleaning


even when washing the school toilets, you would be thinking, wow, got to scrub it super clean for my kid to use it ..... :rotflmao:

got to make it squeaky clean and sparkle .... (background jingle of \"mama lemon!\")

Just out of curiosity, do schools really ask PVs to wash toilets? Surely not? I washed toilets when I was in primary school (don't know if this happened in all primary schools but it did in mine) and now I have to wash toilets to get my kids in primary school! :slapshead:

no lah, just for laughs

can you please laugh ?!

Can get maids to do the SH*T work n parents clock the 40 hours???

Cannot lah. Ah gong ah ma also cannot, not say maid. Some schools only allow one parent to clock for the child, others allow both parents to do so.

I saw some PR ah gongs substitute for the lao peis when the lao peis went outstation and cannot do the PV.

But are you sure it's really ah gong? Some pp have kids late, so their kids look like grandkids.

if you see that happen and feel strongly about it, complain to the school. it's not fair. else one day you will see an army of retirees and maids going around doing what the parents were supposed to do.

I'm still doing PV for the school. Just not sure if I should complain or not.

Yet another perversion of the PV avenue.

Does no one share my sentiment that the PV system is so riddled with inconsistency and lack of transparency, that it should just be summarily terminated?

Inconsistent and lack of transparency, yes in some cases (which unfortunately I have so far heard of 2 cases). However, it has also done a lot of good for those who has the time and are willing to contribute to the school and gotten in based on the proper route.
