Work or Play

Its been a busy weekend for me, on Saturday morning the crowd over at my work place is swamped with crowds, some are going away for a holiday while some are going away to play golf. Each Saturday morning. the crowd will double up twice sometimes thrice and on Sunday when everyone returned back to Singapore.

I was deployed at baggage pier where I am in-charged of making sure that all the baggage that arrived and depart are in good condition as well as are safely load and unload by the porters, also ensuring that all the passengers received their baggage. There is 4 staffs deployed at jetty on weekends usually its 3 staffs on weekdays, 2 will be handling the crowd and ensuring that all departure passengers and ferries are on scheduled while I have a partner to help me around with my duties.

One of my colleagues is a senior citizen so definitely he is not up to pace so I pity him for he has to run around the jetty doing all the work while his partner is so busy playing game in the pier office, playing his PSP. We are busy working, running the pace up ensuring everything is in proper, he is enjoying himself to relaxation. When it comes to work, I am very particular, I divide my time between working and happy hour. But that person took advantage of the time and to have more staff working that period with his unreasonable attitude.

Its very frustrating and annoyed having to experience this problem. Furthermore, while his enjoying his time playing game, we will have to cover his duties and when comes the end of the month, we all have the same paid salary but the different is he is working less. So I and my colleague informed our superior about his attitude. Before this, that person was caught downloading softwares and games using the company computer and he was given a verbal  and stern warning, still he didn't change though he is given chances. While others are worry about losing their jobs, he in the other hand care less about securing his work. I wonder if he ever care about himself, not to say about his work. Its hard to find work nowadays, securing the future, even though you have dozens of certificates that doesn't promise you a brighter future or work. We should be thankful and appreciate of the things we have and owned before we loose it.

I hope he will come to his senses someday before its too late to change and mend his ways, not for other people but for himself and his future. Let this be a lesson to learn and something that we can take note of.
