Do you think you deserve better?

Many of us (myself included) spend a significant proportion of our lifes complaining about our problems, the countless dreams that elude us and what we really deserve..

Amongst our constant whining:

- "I don't understand what that bl**dy foreigner is doing here and robbing our jobs, he can't do nuts.."

- "I'm working long hours and earning peanuts.."

- "can you believe that hawker is driving a BMW?"

- "Even the Bangla can return to Bangla Land and live like a king happily after.."

- "what is the gahmen doing?"

- "OMG, he is earning peanuts!"

Well, children of Singapore, this is basically how the world works, so get on with it.. So that bl**dy foreigner is not exactly competent and you can do a much better job than him; you may not be the most ideal (or even close) person for your job either yet you're still getting paid...

If you're working long hours and earning peanuts, then for god's* sake treasure your hard-earned salary! If you're that talented and so hard-working, you should have gotten your break by now.. Farmers of the world work pretty damn hard either, some of them actually grow nuts... Merchants on the other hand, use their brains..

* not to be taken literally

(Some) hawkers drive BMWs, high level executives and managers drive BMWs, high-ranking army and police officers drive BMWs, genius criminals drive (sometimes stolen) BMWs.. Successful people get the perks, get it? If you can't even cook a decent plate of char kuay teow, why should you get the flashy car?

That Bangla dude you often see wearing the table cloth as a shirt and holding hands with his happy Bangla pal, is an expatriate among his countrymen standards.. Do you dare to go to a place where every guy is holding hands, has a Bangla smell and spend hours under the sun building useless sheltered walkways, pavilions, etc for them? Or go to a place where white skin is the dominant color and work as a waiter/road-sweeper while getting sh*t treatment from the locals..

The gahmen is doing what it believes in and the best it can.. If you feel you can do better, go run for a place in the cabinet or something.. Not enough credentials? You can always volunteer your services at the RC and help out.. Can't be bothered? Then don't bother us and shut up..

Sometimes it is easy to point the finger at someone but be honest.. How many of us would turn down such a huge packet of peanuts? Would you give up your nuts for a noble cause?

Btw, I'm just crapping... Don't get offended.. TaTa!
