Power of media

5 May 08

1 day before I enjoy my lovely Labour Day, I got hit a stroke by an electronic media, "S****P".

Because of 1 joker went post an article, 3 authorities gotta act fast to shield ourselves away from this pile of shit that's gonna land on our heads. Within 6hrs I have to climb high and low, perpirse like mad, stain my polo tee, almost wet my jeans... *arghz....

*Phew...

Think it is over by today...

Now I'm awaiting the most important period of my work, can't afford to suffer a setback.

Back to that issue....

Sometime I feel we have complained too much. I remember once I overheard my relative talking so loud about her 'bad' experience with M*c. I can only remember that it is a small matter, and she wanna make that meal FOC. But that's not the end, she even demand an compensation, by stating all sorts of lame reasons that may lead to all sorts of silly sickness.

Hope I dun sound to 'saint-tic', as I seldom complain that much. Even when I suffer a 'loss' during a meal or buying stuffs at supermarkets, I won't argue much, just let it go. Or maybe is that I dunno how to defend myself, or should I say I'm not tactical enough to bite back on their mistakes.

But anyway, there are so many people complaining all day long, maybe one day, I might be 'assisted' in a way? Who knows?


Nowaday, technology rises like no body business, people can write to Newspapers, electronic press, forums to blow their tops more openly. Those self-declared journalists, yet add in 'wonderful' illustration, were happily yelling their injustice to the whole world. Well, it is people in my line who is borne to suffer. Do they care?


I doubt....


Snap a few shots, draft out, send via e-mail, read it 2 days later in papers. He looks at it and smile, hoping for something to happen. If things perisist, yet another shot, SENT! simple as that. Never did they think about end of the day, how many poor souls were unfortunately 'murdered' under their article which may be even less then 1/10 of the page!

It's true...

Anyway, during my last outing with my poly-mates, I remember Ham saying,"Our complain is to let one's learn from their mistakes or things that they can certainly improve on." I absolutely agree. Put it this way, give them a friendly feedback verbally. Rather then, reveal your long knifes at first sight, confront them straight to get what you wanted.


Mmm.... Come to think of that, just do what in my scope of work. Always remember to cover my arse. If ever such merciless media get to me, at least will have some thing that can stand up for me, rather hide like an ostrich.

Am I right in anyway? Life still goes on....
