TS’s questions very chim, have to think long long.. But since
today chia pai in workshop, TCSS lah..
I joined TD not cos lost job to FT or no job. I was doing well
in my career, quite good pay/propects. Everytime I got retrenched,
I can find another that pays about same, if not better within
short-time, before the retrenchment benefits used. But I quit my
job cos of own special issue which I don want to talk about here.
At first, TD is just temporary, but after a while, I find its not
too bad. Earn less but can be enough to be happy. I also met a lot
of Tds that command my respect. They are the hard-working upright
ones, helpful, self-sacrificing always thinking for family, simple.
More respect for them, then the rich and powerful but use
underhanded ways. I met a driver 5 years ago, says can earn 300+
nett per day (off only a few days per month). I believe him. He
skips rope everyday to keep fit and drive 16 hours a day w short
breaks and mileage of 700km + per day. His motivation to chiong?
His father was sick and monthly hospital bills alone already 3.5k.
How long he last at this rate I dunno but he motivated me to make
the most out of wat I hv and TDg.
I used to admire my ex boss.. 2 landed properties here and other
countries, cars, 5 figure pay and his wife also 5 figure pay in
civil service…didn’t want to hv kids want to enjoy life and chase
more $. A few years ago I saw in obituary page he died of illness
at 47…
