a brief acquaintance,B told me that she's quit her administration job. thk goodness though, she's found a new one.
as she was relating the unfair practice at work since the boss employed a foreign talent (filipino), she shed tears. she's in the 50s and the new worker is in late
20s.
she said,"the filipinos are crafty!"
it's again a case of office power play. but knowing B, she's a responsible worker. she was pissed off upon learning that the new worker is paid more than her but worked shorter hours than her. the latter blatantly showed that she's taking over her job and showed no respect for her 'seniority' and 'experience'.
aye, she mentioned that the boss sided with the new worker and apparently, has disregarded all the overtime and commitment put in by B. it's disheartening, i guess, when one puts in many hrs of hard work, only to be granted, and have a new comer (foreign talent, yeah?) towering over her in many ways....
i wish her all the best and told her that the new environment might be better for her. i will surely look her up in the new office, should i drop by there. after all, she has really demonstrated her respy, commitment and hard work in her area of work.
competition from this foreigner....what can i say? i am indeed lucky not to be bothered by all this office politics, so is red.

I read some online stories too of how crafty the pinoys are and ganging up to ostracize our local workers at work. Which is why I really doubt the foreign talent policy of our gov? Are they really the foreign talents or just any Tom, Dick & Harry who are given PR/ citizens in S'pore to vie for jobs with our people? Sad....
ReplyDeletehaha, i didnt knw u call them pinoys...really a pin on my head lor.
ReplyDeletei dun like them. the maids are worst, frankly. too playful, too aggressive and too keen to bare their curves..joy and i always can't tahan the over-display of front chest.
knw why? we are too flat-chested.
I learned this term online. Hehe! Btw, we dun need to be flat-chested to dislike them over-displaying their front. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha... yes, Red is right. You don't need to be flat-chested to be disgusted by their displays, always hunting for lusty men.
ReplyDeleteI work with people from all over the countries in my office. I don't have the luck to be away from them so just have to keep my b/w clear to cover my ass!
