by nature i am a very friendly person bro even if i outside i will strike a conversation with strangers.
so far in Australia the past 10 years the Australian majority of them are nice friendly people no dramas.
i used to work in CSSD and in there a power struggling bro!:
3 indian (1 manager 2 juniors)
1 malay (me junior)
2 philipino (seniors)
1 old ang mo(senior)
the indian manager wants to groom one of the indian junior to be second incharge while the rightful place suppose to be one of the philipino senior.
and just what the indian junior and the philipino senior backstab eachother and the indian junior she very bossy!
the old ang mo senior told me just ignore them just do my work and look forward to go home.
well one thing i learned in singapore when working inviroment is toxic i dont want to waste my time and resign.
the junior indian ask me why i want to resign i told her nicely i retiring she look at me surprise!
................................................
there one time we went to the zoo and met sgrean or malaysian family and i greeted and talk to the uncle when i ask he from he answer me rudely and say "MEBOURNE!
my dear wife was there and after they left my wife tell me not anyone wants to be my friend. she said she know i am a very friendly person but she said i should stop being too friendly. i known my wife more then 18 year she never tell me off. so since then whenever i see asian who look like or sound like sgrean or malaysian i just give them a friendly face if they talk to me i be very happy to talk to them and if they just ignore me (normally they just ignore me) its ok life goes on![]()
If you everyday have to serve 50 to 70 strangers asking you for this and that complaining left right centre.....
You see whether you still think the people nice or not.
