Okay, just about 30 mins ago, I heard this small argument a few units down my house. It was this chinese man who was looking for his employer, I suppose, to get back payment for wages they owned him for quite a period of time. He came a few nights ago and waited from 7 to like 1am? Yeah, he just sat there quietly waiting for the owner to come back. And those bloody idiots didnt ans his call nor open the door when he went up knocking on their doors. This got him damn fustrated and he just went into a rage and went knocking at the door just now. The mother, I suppose, came out and argued with him. They sorta owned him 680 dollars in wages. They claimed they sent it to the bank account but he didnt receive it. So they argued and the man is now waiting at the void deck downstairs for the employer to turn up.

Well, I deduce those people might be bankrupt, because to be able to own a mansionette in toa payoh, you have to be quite, erm rich. Im not saying Im damn bloody rich, but selling my unit at the current market price can get me a condo if you add a few hundred dollars more to it. So cant pay 680?! Impossible, unless bankrupt.

Simply to put it, I HATE people who owe others money. Money is not important , health is, some might say. But no money, how to buy food?! Before you even can take care of your health, you would'nt need to, if you get what I mean, i.e. to heaven. So I NEVER start the borrowing habit. No borrow, no oweing. Spend within your means. I read in The New Paper today that a lawyer absconded with his clients' money and I think this is happening too often. Lawyers, the ones who argue the best among the society, have no ethics and moral values? So I dont see a person by what qualifications they achieve, but by what kind of EDUCATION they receive. EDUCATION does not mean a doctorate degree. Its the MORAL EDUCATION and willingness to apply what you have learnt INTO HELPING SOCIETY. That is the true purpose and cycle of education.

That poor man is still waiting downstairs and its past midnight now. He's been doing it for a few nights. I know the pain and loneliness in waiting alone, with no aim. Seriously pity that man. Haiz.
