Excuse me, can you give me a job?

[Hangover]

"Excuse me, can you give me a job?"​

That was how i felt during my jobless days. It kept lingering on my mind. Very often, I wished I could look into someone's eyes and said these words.

Here's a toast to my dark days.


For our friends who are jobless or unhappy at work,
Do whatever you can to stay alive.

If you can't fly, you run
If you can't run, you walk
If you can't walk, you crawl

I know it's tiring, but do it for your family and loved ones.

I know decent people who have a passion for teaching getting rejected.

MOE prefers to hire those who can wayang these days.

You mean the PAP is scouting for new blood in the teaching fraternity these days?

Yes, they have been doing that. In a recent example, they recruited a former principal of Mayflower primary school who has many kids, everyday happily go home early but gives tonnes of shit to his subordinates, until one of them had a miscarriage.

In the beginning, family was understanding. Then finances are tighter, as much as I could, i just eat one proper meal a day at night. Daytime, i survived on some sweet drinks in the morning, like F&N Barley and bread for breakfast and lunch. I will buy a loaf of bread, and eat when I am alone. If I want something better, i will buy those $1.10 hot dog bread once a while.

Then eventually, family lost patience with me (once a while, I really don't blame them). There was a little tension and I don't like to stay at home because I wasn't supposed to be around during weekday daytime for years. I was jobless for 7 months so people around me assumed I was choosy (just like the CDC job placement officers).

Some friends did treat me during meetups. I am glad and thankful that they didn't forsaken me during that period.
Driving Uber tide me through in the later part, until i found a job.

for me during jobless days i have the urge to look into rich people eyes and say "excuse me, can give me money" and look into someone eyes and say "excuse me can give me a blow job".

If you need help, your local RC will help you. Contact your nearest RC or come meet with your ward's MP or PAP grassroots advisor during the meet-the-people's session. Don't waste time with the lame duck opposition MPs. They can't help you.
