Sorry. Haven't been updating much, even so during the weekend.
Next week is gonna be rather hectic so I can't spare much time to relax.
The old saying goes "You reap what you sow."
So I ask, do you always reap what you sow?
Take studies for example.
There are people who can do well even though they don't study or don't study much.
Is it because they're smarter?
NO, I never believed anyone is stupid or is less smart than anyone else.
Probably they have good studying methods and exam smart?
Actually the paper chase in Singapore is so moronic.
And yeah that makes me a moron too.
Everyone is just jumping on the bandwagon, everyone just have the general perception that having good paper qualifications equates to successful careers.
But, sad to say, NO NO NO.
How many graduates have failed to find a job within half a year of their graduation?
The supply of graduates in the market is simply too saturated.
Turn left, ah graduate! Turn right, ah another graduate!
That makes being a graduate nothing special. And thus to make it big, you must have the X factor!
You don't have to be a graduate to be a SUCCESSFUL businessman.
Or simply put, most graduates don't want and don't dare to risk because they think they are superior in terms of qualifications.
Oops I digressed too much. Getting too carried away.
They always say bootlickers go far.
YES it's true. I'm saying this after my working experience in DBS.
Officer A, who's selfish, bossy and just simply intolerable, does nothing much.
And all the work is delegated to this lower ranking officer B, who does so much that she can only eat lunch at 4pm and comes back for work even on her off days.
Oh yeah I forgot to mention this bit about A having a fiance who is a Vice President in another department.
And when the promotion day comes, who gets it?
A, the lazy, irritating one with a VP fiance for backup?
OR B, the one who has to slog her guts out?
Well, you should have guessed, in relevance to my topic, of course it's A.
So there you have it. I seriously think in the working world, even a bootlicking bimbo can be a manager.
Reality bites.
