I detest , let me repeat,
DETEST rude people with no etiquette or any form of a wee bit of thing called Formality; manners.
C'mon, you Americans should know better! (Being Asian, you know that manners doesn't furnish from Asia)
Before I came years ago, I painted a nice picture of America in my head where it's surrounded by fresh pastures and nice people who took their grins to their ears and all they said was "Please, Thank You & Sorry"
Guess I wasnt that far away from home.
But being Singaporean, does make a difference to how rude Americans can be.
Yea yea before you get offended & start pointing fingers.
When you have a job like mine that engage with 1)formality
and on good days I get --> 2) manners!
Makes it easy or the latter.
More like your rudeness is killing me.
I would actually say I am very well-mannered out of many Singaporeans.(well brought-up thanks to my <3Mama, this I have to say my mom has done well. Single mom-3-kids and she had time to teach Proper Manners?/ How bout that ) Even with the adapted British ways in Singapore, you still find many obnoxious people out there.
I don't hold a grudge towards ill-mannered people. (Under many circumstances, families have different way of teachings, tho i may not agree with some of their ways of life & mannerisms, I respect & understand that) But I still insist that no matter your family background or teachings, by now, with our informative society, one should at least know proper manners or at least embrace others' that show it.
I get really ticked off with the rude. (Rude is just plain obnoxious, no acceptable reasons I can find)
So there is a difference.
Back to my job.
I worked today and just realized my dislike for rude people is growing rapidly stronger.
With that, would come a nice pleasant person who have some decent amount of manners in them
& help make my day that converge to forget about the worthless hostility.
Overall, I hate my job.
Well, this big aspect of it.
Co-workers also apply to this.
But that would go into a whole different area of topic..
Cooperation.
Still, I don't go to work to make friends
I go to work to work!
No wonder the last time I checked, I enjoyed my scraps of paper & pencil & L'OFFICIEL magazines more than people. * well the good ones in my eyes are hard to find. therefore i waste no time.
I guess this isn't my world. If I could only paint it the way I see it.
Really, amazing how I can sleep tonight and look forward to the bland days ahead.
Amazing too how much of a long way I still have!
Good luck Amanda!!!!!
I'm staying positive out of this negative life that continues to breed and breed..
