I’m now seating next to one of the main walkways in the office. Inspections are coming and massive changes have been undertaken to ensure that everything positively gleams under inspection. It is sadly so like this place to only improve itself when terminally needed. And even then, only on a superficial basis. Some of the improvements are great but the joy of it is soured by the fact that they weren’t implemented for our wellfare, more so just for the sake of inspections.

I still pretty much love the job except for the occasional propaganda meetings which I personally feel are an absolute waste of time. Sitting in the loo and taking a dump is a more positive use of my time. It is frustrating really… but it is only a small bitter pill we have to swallow. We should be allowed to concentrate on what we are here to do, teach the kids not listen to unsconstructive motivational talks.

I also notice that it seems to be a very Malaysian thing to do the bare minimum and worry about everything else only when the shit hits the fan. What a mind-set.
