Last night we went to blk 380 for dinner. The auntie there was seriously quite wonderful. Very efficient and steady. We got all our food within minutes, which was quite amazing considering that the coffeeshop was almost packed. Later, my mum went to compliment her and she came to thank us, but she didn't dare to smile too much because she said that she'd just dropped a tooth and she didn't want to scare us, haha. Anyway, I was just thinking about how people like her are the ones who make things work. Either she really loves her job or she really needs the money. I'll choose to think that it's the former. And I think that's really great of her. I mean, working there isn't exactly the job most people would dream of. And yet, she's doing it and she's doing a good job. There will always be a need for people like her as long as there are places like coffeeshops. So there are people like her who are just suited for working there, and there are people who are not. It's not a shame working there. In fact, it's much better than working at some office but dying inside. So no matter which job you take, the only important thing is that you give it your best shot because you love it/believe in it... And when I go out into the working world, what kind of job would make me want to give it my best shot? I guess any company would want to keep moving up and getting more successful. As an employee, would I want to be part of this? If working is just about gaining personal success, then what's the point? The world does not revolve around you.
Then I think I'd be better off being my own boss.
On a less philosophical note, it's raining right now and I'm craving for grilled/fried chicken wings, haha. :p
