"i do get job discrimination from ah nehs that happened to be the team lead/managers. the ah nehs here look down on the chinese. i can see them thumbing up their noses when we met and behave like an ass. man, i hate them!"
Now that you are/were at the bottom of the food chain looking up, maybe you now have a good understanding of the intense feelings other minority races feel towards the chinese majority(Spore) who dominate majority of the top and better positions. Of course, the magnamious chinese used to claim that the minorities shouldn't be complaining as there is no such racism. They hide behind the word "meritocracy" as long as it suits their own selfish agenda.
Unfortunately, in your case, tables have turned..haven't they? And you hate the ah nehs? No?..
In this new world order, its time to get used to the fact that people like yourself (definately still a true blooded sinkie even though you are living in oz) are a nobody. You don't and never will get the "respect" by default just because you are a "hardworking" Sporean chinese (well...only maybe in Spore..hmm..debatable these days).
I have worked with ah-nehs before..and yes worked with fellow chinese and the likes of other races. The mediocre ones are those who practice discrimination based on race and the whingers (like yourself) are a truly a noxious weed....hard to eradicate.
Still don't understand? Let me give you another angle.
Just as you have shown your hatred for the ah-nehs, can you now imagine and feel the intense hatred of the white angmohs towards the chinese?
Food for thought.
