No Biggie.
Like many others, i wish i could be an Ang Moh sometimes, for they've got blue or green eyes & they don't have to spend all dat money on dyeing their hair blonde or brunette. I oso admire dat most of dem r tall & their currency has a much higher value.
Not to mention their very fee-lee-fair-leh command of Eng Moh, well, most of dem anyway.
B4 we jump to concluding being an Asian is so unfortunate, i must tell all of u dat Ang Mohs can be so freaking...n i mean SO FREAKING stoopid too.
Of coz, almoz all situations do not hv an absolute, i said Almoz. I'm sure u noe some nice & frenly Ang Moh folks as well.
BUT!
After having got the chance to liaise wif some many Ang Mohs in work, i tink dey r not daaaat different as compared to some fellow stoopid people/ locals we hv around.
Wot's worse, dey r a freakin' arrogant bunch too.
Just today i spoke to dis freakin' President of some wine company who wanted to make an offer to a candidate but due to some misunderstandings, he wanted to retract his offer, until i talked him into re-considering the candidate again.
But he didnt let it happen without cutting SGD$200 from the original offer, & i quote him "...because she upsetted me, instead of the original SGD$1900, she will only be paid SGD$1700...I'll not bother to tok her into taking up the offer as i've got other interested candidates waiting in the line."
Rite.
....can somebody please tell mi wad just happened...?!
I had to clear my ears to make sure my hearing didnt fail mi.
"...because she upsetted me...", did he just say dat!?!? The President of the company??!
Wad the hell~?!?
I've oredi explained dat it was all a misunderstanding so like...get OVER it oredi!! The last thing i wud expect somebody of his status, daaat reputable, to boil down to nothing but a sour wuss & an arrogant jerk.
He cut somebody's salary by $200 just bcoz he feels upsetted~!!!? Rite. I'm sure he feels so pain-ed, hurt-ed & belittled.
Not only did dat diminish his high & mighty professionalism, as he obviously took things too personally, he was oso so damn crude & sarcastic dat the sour-est lemon wud hv hidden itself in shame!
Wad is dis $200 compared to wad he is getting paid?!!? For all he noes, somebody's livelihood mite depend on dis $200 can?! Fuckin' expat....
If Mrs Goh CT had used her infamous "peanuts"-counter in dis context, i m sure nobody wud even bother to flinch an eyebrow, much less splash it across our headlines.
To add to the bill, i've oso liaised wif Ang Mohs who do not noe a single shit about our working culture & labour laws but still try to poke their fat noses into our businesses until when things get a tad too technical, their balls shrink in the face of responsibility & dey will arrow it to their counterparts to cope with the aftermath, blatantly washing their hands off the situation.
Not dat different wif the some of us isn't it?!
I'm beginning to discriminate. Can't help it. It's hard not to. Everytime i spot Asians wif Ang Mohs, i ponder over the plausability of dem having a blissful & everlasting relationship.
Exactly wad r these fellow locals tinking of??
Ultimately, Ang Mohs r humans too la huh. In fact, some of dem behave much worse than their Stone-Age ancestors.
Reli, Ang Mohs, not daaat cool. ¶ J poppycocked at 9:44:00 PM
