All good things must come to an end

Was super sad yesterday morning, when our boss broke the heartbreaking news to us. Two of our jap colleague have to be posted back to Japan, due to the cost cutting measures. Gosh almost cried in front of everyone when e news was said. the service manager looked like he was goin to cry when they announced that he have to go back. He is honestly the nicest guy in the company. He is a good father, a good colleague. He really love his children a lot and his really sincere to all of us. He is e guy who will speak in jap to me to train me to speak jap. Very grateful to him for all e help he gave me with my japanese homework. Hee..

Realised that when they go back their position will be lower than their current position. As there isn't any excess space in the company they will go to where ever that needs ppl. I heard that ppl might go back to be a storeman. Gosh really ridiculous. Hmm.. Also the service manager's eldest son might not be in time to enrol to a jap high sch over there. So well e sch might be alone here. Quite sad! He love his family very much and i don't think he would want to leave his son alone here, but no choice. So sad.... Gosh will really miss him when he go back and with two people gone there might be a lot of ppl trying to gain control of the dept.

Actually I was a bit pissed with the sales manager.. When e announcement was made, he was quite wu qing. Instead of feeling a bit "will miss them" he immediately tot of who will take their places. Seriously y must make the place so political. Furthermore it is none of his business he is already a manager he can't get promoted any further. Anyway it will no affect me in anyway so jus let it be.

Today i told my colleague abt a show i watched on tv abt darren lim and evelyn tan. They visited their house then they r currently living in a bangalow. Then the ae suddenly say girls don't have to be so smart jus have to marry good. Honestly!!!! What age is it now! Still got people think this way... I realised the world is like that people who have old thinking will bring their old thinking and superstition to their children. And somehow these superstitions will never die. Those people who "can't study" wouldn't think much about studying, likewise people who "can study" will think highly of studying. my other colleague rebutted her saying need smart people to have smart offspring. Hee.. In my heart i was thinking not everyone can marry good. If you are not able to depend on someone you must at least have some capabilities to survive. And studying open up your options, and having more knowledge is better than having no knowledge.

Actually i think studying more give people confidence. A person who can study more have more confidence than people who study less because they have knowledge. In a sense i think knowledge is power, one way of gaining knowledge is through experience and the other is through education. So likewise a person who didn't study much but have lots of hands-on experience is as knowledgable as someone who study and only have book knowledge.

E ae also said don't need to learn english. Actually another of my colleague who couldn't speak good english feels the same. But in singapore e education system is in english, w/o english the person's math and science would also be in trouble. And if you are able to speak in english you will feel more confident when a foreigner speaks to you. Actually it applies to chinese too.. So i think we have to be bilingual and be very good in both language.

I have to say I have trouble communicating with these people at times. Not that i think that i m smarter. Just that i couldn't understand their way of thinking. Like she can tell me study so much jus for a cert. To me i don't study for the cert i study for knowledge i don't want to be dumb. Urgh... i can't stand dumb ppl, so i can't stand myself being dumb. and i totally can't understand their weird logic. Maybe it works... but then the people will nv improve..
