Last night, I had a very unpleasant dinner.  Originally, it's a dinner with an old friend, talking about unhappy things at work.  But on and on, it became a complaint of colleagues, and then finally ... a critique.

Maybe because I fully support freedom of speech, so many people around me who don't will criticize me.  Last night, we talk about people too care about the China market ... "they all say China has 1.3 billion population.  If each of them buy a can of Coke the profit will be huge.  But do you think anybody in China can afford a can of Coke and how many people is willing to pay for a can of Coke?"  Then, I started being criticized.  I was only saying my opinion and I didn't need your support.  Then I had a full "lesson", "you ought to see things further not on the surface (ha~ I wonder who is see the surface ...) and don't be too extreme ... (oh~ people having different opinions from yours are extreme ...)

Then it's further elaborated that China is having a big progress during the decade, "some worker, you know they may not be literated (who knows?) but they can do things so nice (please, think about the workers who work in the factory for the chinaware ... hand craft does not need much knowledge from book ga ...).  I'm OK to buy thing and eat with them (then did you position yourself more superior??? then why need to emphasize that eating with them would not be a problem???) 

I think she has already drilled into the game of office politics and she always warned me not to be cheated by the "good intention" of the colleagues ... can't other people be nice to you?  Oh~!  One more thing, seem that she was shocked to know that I'm sharing my bedroom with the nanny at home.  What is the big deal?  We are only sharing my room, not my bed, and most important, it's a SHE. 

Maybe I'm too shallow but I really don't want things to go to gar away.  The dinner last night brought me about indigestion.  

So from now on, I have 2 prohibited topics - religious belief (especially Catholics related) and China / office politics related.  Let's all talk about WIND, FLOWER, SNOW, MOON ...
