Survival Tips - Part 2

We can dig trenches, "topo", built tents, camouflage our faces to blend with the jungle, but all these are futile if we do not even know how to feed ourselves. Read it, print it, burnt it & drink it.

1. Gather the best hunters

2. Use the best weapon of choice

3. Use the best bait you have

4. Economise the best you can

5. God works in mysterious ways

Keep It Together

"Keep, keep it together

Keep people together forever and ever"

Regret

Maybe I've forgotten the name and the address
Of everyone I've ever known
It's nothing I regret
Save it for another day
It's the school exam and the kids have run away

I would like a place I could call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up every day that would be a start
I would not complain of my wounded heart

I was upset you see
Almost all the time
You used to be a stranger
Now you are mine

I wouldn't even trust you
I've not got much to give
We're dealing in the limits
And we don't know who with
You may think that I'm out of hand
That I'm naive, I'll understand
On this occasion, it's not true
Look at me, I'm not you

I was a short fuse
Burning all the time
You were a complete stranger
Now you are mine

Just wait till tomorrow
I guess that's what they all say
Just before they fall apart

Singapura, sunny island set in the sea

1. The education system: It may seem unforgiving, but it 's so competitive that by the time the kids here complete tertiary education, they can face anything - nightmarish jobs, hellish bosses, crazy deadlines and everythign else.
2. Flip flops and shorts: Hey they're the national dress, man. Who needs high fashion?
3. How Singaporeans pack everything in just 2 words - "So how?"
4. The speed at which things get done here: The government makes it really easy for us to pay for things like taxes, fines, ERP ... so we have no excuse not to.
5. Our resourcefulness: Just look at how we "chope" seats in crowded hawker centres by using packs of tissue paper.
6. Our long suffering patience: We queue for hours if we think it's worth our time.
7. Our Ah Lians and Ah Bengs: They're completely Singaporean - and you've got to love them for their stylish togs, tinted hair, white slippers and short shorts.
8. Our multi-linguistic abilities: Singlish is our first language, English is the language we use for work while dialects are for swearing.
9. The infinite knowledge of taxi drivers: We love how they manage to unearth the latest and most scandalous insider gossip about celebs and politicians, their conspiracy theories for everything and thier tips on the best coffee shops, betting shops, durian stalls and late night hangouts. Now if only ther could only find Nicoll Highway.
10. Our Mentor Minister Lee Kuan Yew: You'll never know what he's going to say next.

10 Reasons Why You Should Leave Office Sharp

1. Employment letter stated that working hour finish at 6.00pm.
2. Work is a never-ending process even you stay until next morning you will never finish it.
3. Human are not robots even robots/machines have to rest or else it will face breakdown problems.
4. You love your career, but your family is even more important in your life.
5. If you failed in your life, your boss is not going to be the one who gives you a helping hand whereas your family would definately offer help.
6. You do not want to screw up or make your life miserable because of your job.
7. Monthly salary = Work from 9am - 6.00pm

If 6.30pm = $0.00 + 0 bonus + 0 Ang Pau + 0 appreciation + Bad Health + Bad Social Life +. Poor family relationship

Equals to: Unproductive Employee + Performance Drop + Company Reputation Drops + Retrenchment Rate Increases + Resignation Rate Increases

8. If the person who disagree to the above formulation, then he/she is a loser who has no life, heartless, doomed workaholic, etc. He/She deserves the 'Best Employee of the Year Award'!
9. You don't give a damn if you boss fires you.
10. For the Chinese, remember this 'House in the East no longer keep you, then just move to the West House'
