The insignificant nobody me would like to share an experience on social REALITIES...
a) It was in a private institutionalized club in Singapore where members and like minded individuals working hard to put food on the table not just for oneself, loved ones but society as a whole,,,,had dinner together one night...
b) One of the members was a Sunni Muslim, not and never a Radical one, whom own a multi million dollar company through hard work with working with other races TOGETHER to achieve success, told us of his tale with hiring a fellow Muslim 'graduate'.
c) The graduate that he hired was not from NUS or Harvard, but from a prestigious Islamic college in Arabia with a degree in Islamic studies....
d) Being a manufacturing firm, he tried to help the graduate, whom had faced long issues on being hired despite tens of resume sent, in a society whereby REALISTIC skills are necessary, not just mere words. That graduate had to start from the bottom, under the hot sun and heavy rain to prove his worth...
Mere memorizing a few words from the disputable Arabic Koran of 604 pages or the hadiths does not make one a true ' graduate' in an open World of diverse education and needs of civilization in many forms, let alone STEM style education....
e) Unfortunately, due to his perceptions of a being a 'graduate' in this modern World, he had high expectations - high salary, an office overlooking a city, a secretary, a company limousine, etc, etc, which ARE FAR beyond any sane employer's life savings to build up a pragmatic manufacturing company that needs more engineers to provide for long term sustainability, even an MNC, as his qualifications - Islamic studies - is irrelevant to the needs of an employer, unless the employer owns a mosque....
f) Equally unfortunately, the young Islamic grad did not realize REALITIES, and within a few days, he quit, blaming the mgmt and everything under the sun except his own used or misused free will, along with his naive and utterly ill-conceived perceptions, perhaps under influenced by Radical Islam, after attempts to change others and management views to his Radical views but FAILED, and that was the last of what the empathetic boss heard from him......sigh....
