丑陋的有钱人

商场如战场, 谁能最不抛真心,保持理智,最能玩这商场游戏。谁最能在适当的时候出卖自己的朋友,就可以卖到好价,就能出位,少奋斗几年,快别人几年住大屋,开大车。 你奸我诈,利益当头,金钱挂帅,大家吃吃喝喝,看起来真是好朋友,但是只为了一场交易,close 了这个sale,又有几千块进账,这钱不难赚, 何乐而不为呢? 所以有人把一天有限的24 小时,十六个小时吃吃喝喝,赚到了钱,在亲友团里才能永远做受欢迎的人,免的在同辈中被瞧不起。 你不需要真情,就能赚到真金,当然也换不到真情,不过真情有何用? 又不能换饭吃,生病时更买不到病床,来探病的也怕要付医药费,生病时已很冷,人情这时更冷。 这个年代,这是我工作的世界,我们都在努力当个丑陋的有钱人。

Ikea vs Court

If you had switch on your radio in the car, or just watching any tv advestisement lately, you must have notice the Court's ad for stock clearance...should be their closing sale, or meaning the Court is finally closing down. I use the opportunity to look for a better sofa, so I head on to the nearest Court after office. I went in the store, and first come to my view is a row of chairs, new and old, listed nicely, waiting to be purchase by the customer, and the price tag is very attractive, RM10 for a looking-new chair. So here i go, even not needing one, I help myself pick up a chair, and 'boom' the wooden chair's top drop to the floor immediately. Look like the condition is not so good though, I think. So I pick up another one, now I am clever enough I sit on it to try first. To test the chair withstandibility to the maximum I sit on two legs of the chair like a rocking chair, and suddenly I heard someone shouting at me, ' Hey, you buat macam itu, mesti lah dia rosak, kalau semua orang buat sekali, saya tak payah juah lah' , i turn my face to this fierce, unfriendly salegirl, she is showing a I-not-welcome-you & you-better-go-face. Ashamed by that, I make myself stand-up and explain to the girl, I want to buy that is why i need to make sure the chair is really in good condition.The salegirl's reaction is 'I-not-really-care'....so I just head for the main door, and would not want to look back. Inside my car, I keep thinking is it me who is rude that the salegirl has to react that way? Then I am thinking should I just write to complain to their management about the girl attitude toward customer? Then immediately I think of Ikea our foreign major furniture seller who is so successfully conquer the Malaysia's market, people go to buy, carry, and instal by themself yet it is everyday crowd everytime i visited the store. What is the reason that Ikea is so successful, wheress the Court is closing now?? I think It is buried deep inside the culture of the store, which put customer satisfaction first as the soul of the spirit of the selling team. Customer went to the Ikea are actually encourage to sit, lying, twisting and testing the product, they even go to the limit to allow return of their product purchased within 60 days if you are not satisfied with it. Try to compare that with the Court where I was humiliated just to test a chair. Attitude is something Malaysian company need to learn from the international company, our kampung boy and girl is always lack of it, shame on our culture which is suppose to be more polite. I finally realise why Dr Mahathir included the Pendidikan Moral in the secondary school the time he was in power. I would not spare my time and paper to complain the salegirl, she already learning the hard lesson - unemployement soon, if the lesson didn't teach her anything, I would not want to waste mine too.

This is using the 'close up' mode, avoid the sunlight as possible. The result is clear flower color and mixed green.
