This evening, I went to Mustafa to meet up with an EVC guy to pass him 2 peugeot logos i bought from IMM. This guy (lets call him Mr.M) is in his 40s, always dressed in those typical ah-pek striped polo tee + a pair of shorts/berms. He smokes heavily and told us he needs to drive his van to the construction sites at times. Nobody knows wat job he is having.

A few of us asked him for his occupation but he always gave different answers ranging from helping out with family business to doing sales . Today, he finally admitted to me that he is a medical doctor. He has chosen not to disclose his identity for fear of unnecc judgement and not able to blend in easily with the EVC ppl.

Dr M has been working in the US, Bombay, Australia and even once a sailing medical doctor on Star Cruise. He laughed when i told him how stressful my job is - cos he is handling life-threatening cases in hosptial almost everyday which are much more stressful. He also shared with me his views on what the correct working attitude shld be - knowing from A to Z of your job. He has asked me to kill the thoughts of quitting my job and told me tat i need to stay in a single job for at least 2 years (same as wat my HRM tutor told us) before moving on to the next job.

Dr M also told me that i shld not be bothered too much with my pay as working in a big firm + low pay is still better off than working in a small unknown firm + high pay. The transferable and 'carrier' value is not there for the latter, and the additional amt of pay doesn make up to it.

Lastly, he shared about the attitude in life - A person who follows the rules strictly may be a good man, but it doesn make him a better man if without true understanding of his own actions. Always strive to be a better man, not just a good man.

Oh yes, did i mention he is from myammar and a practising buddhist? Hehe. .talk abt karmic link
