Actually call me elitist or whatever, but I firmly believe that
at a relatively "young" age, you have the means to improve yourself
through further education secure the white collar job. Its all a
matter of choice. That holding true, who would still want to go do
a cleaner job etc.
However, the kind of opportunity and time coupled with the lack
of burden to carry on the shoulders do not apply to people of the
older generation aka auntie/uncle.
Another observation I made is that very often, younger people
who are holding these jobs tend to be basically real
@sses. Im sure many people have come across young guys
driving lorries/vans transporting stuff who think they
own the damn roads. (just like taxi drivers but thats another
story) Then there are the Mcdonalds delivery man again young guy
who knocks on your door who has "you owe me a freaking million
dollars" written all over his face.
Usually I smile it off but deep down I despise them and laugh to
myself and pray they're stuck with their jobs for the rest of their
pathetic lives.
However, let me make this clear, I do not in any way despise
people holding such posts, BUT if you are young and basically
contented with doing such jobs for the rest of your life, all I can
say is good luck with the inflation, GST increase(more to come),
CPF contributions and feeding your family especially if your a
guy.
We are all made for something more.
