Why Singapore Need FTs! Cannot Rely On Lazy Sinkies!

[JohnTan]

Dear TRS,

I would like to highlight and praise one Filipino worker here whom I had encountered when I went to Sengkang Kopitiam hawker centre on the 3rd day of Chinese New Year (Sat, 21/02/2015).

She was hardworking and friendly and smiled to customers even though she was clearly facing an overwhelming workload with very little to no help.

Around 9 pm plus. she was alone manning the drinks counter, and there were an overwhelming of customers queuing and ordering drinks, cold and hot alike.

Apart from that, she also has to take care of the fruits section, where customers would order fresh fruits there.

There was one male staff not in uniform, and he did help a little, taking orders and collecting payments. However after seeing the crowd thinned, he also left, leaving her to face the never-ending crowd.

While queuing, I also noticed three full large rubbish bins totally filled to the brim. I have no idea when her shift started, especially when most, if not all, Chinese staff would be on leave. I imagine she had already been standing on her feet for hours, and catering to the tsunami-flood of customers coming to order from her.

Despite the clearly stressful workload, she was polite and attentive and hardworking.

We Singaporeans are not Xenophobic. We are wide-hearted and compassionate. I am sure there are many other Singaporeans who have noticed and silently appreciate the work of foreign staff in Singapore who work hard while he take leave to spend time with family.

Admittedly, there are jobs we may not wish to take up, but that is not the real reason. The high costs of living, from housing to transportation to medical, forced us to shun many jobs which could not cater to our living expenses, especially so if we are to raise a family. Because of this, in the end, these jobs are taken up by foreigners...

While we are going to face an upcoming election that may shape the façade of Singapore's future, let us thank the many nameless foreigners who helped us in crossing over the manpower crunch, when most of us are celebrating and resting, and all the more ponder over the manifestations of such scenarios and occurrences, tracing down to the root of all matters; It is certainly not foreigners' fault that we have not taken up these jobs and most of them are friendly, hardworking and just wanting the best for themselves.

[greedy and cunning]

more nonsense from you again ?

most FT working as waiter , construction worker , cashier , etc have low education qualification.
sillypooreans are not lazy and most got at least a sec 4 cert.
it is the low pay and higher education qualification that cause the problem.

btw , I heard grass-looters are opportunist , low life scum.
in events organized by CC , PA . . . .
u see them and their family rushing for the free food and
those cheap things that are given free.

In reality, the nation have been providing welfare state benefits "minimum wages" in millions to each individual leech aka papee, (juz because of one party rule system) to leeches aka papees leeching on the system. These leeches aka papees wasting nation's time and resources and etc every single second of the Mother Earth's day. By some unfortunate default, we as a nation have to put food on table and tonnes of $$$ for these leeches...


The country needs the government (employees of the public) to work for the country.
Can these leeches aka papees become self reliant? Get a job and be prepared to work hard
at least for once in a lifetime. Stop Leeching on the system.




FUCK PAP, FUCK PAP, FUCK PAP.........
MAY PAPEES, CRONIES N FAMILIES BURN ETERNALLY IN HELLS.........
MAJULLAH SINGAPURA.........
GOD BLESS SINGAPORE..............
REMEMBER to

VOTE papees OUT



do yrself, yr forefathers and yr generations to come, a favor, a service and a long-awaited justice









iamhere says a lot about this:"The democracy shall cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those LEECHES who would not.”
