Post no. 957
I used to have a colleague who can be classified as a Chao Keng Kia. Lets call him Soulman for short.
Hes CK because hes not around half the time... and the other half of the time, hes away on childsick leave.
Being the very true blue fighting soldier that i once was... hes was everything that i didnt want to be.
Recently, our path crossed again. I had to do an interview for my new company for SAF. SAF is apparently revamping its image and would like to do a series of shoot for publicity. As luck would have it, the interviewee turned out to be Soulman.
I only had about 30mins with him but it put to rest my previous misconceptions about him. From the moment i stepped into his house till i left, i could feel through my veins the family vibes that resonance between himself and his family.
It became clear that work was perhaps never his 1st priority. His family was.
Suddenly, i feel ashame of myself. I never did understood him previously because i never saw this sight of him.
And i thought i knew the meaning of what 'family ties'.. Looks like i have a lot to learn.
