You get up early for work, eyes dazed, mind in a blur. Grabbing what you can from your already empty kitchen you wander off to work driving a car that should’ve retired years ago.
You arrive in the office and beep yourself in.
You work hard and focus on doing your job well – your career depends on it. It’s way past office hours before you get home, and if you’re lucky, spend time having dinner with friends or family.
More often than not you’ve time enough to catch a short nap before “the process” repeats itself.
The “process” is perceived differently from persons to persons – some feel it’s about paying your dues, others see it as a system that’s ingrained into life in the working world.
But really, where do you draw the line between exploitation and ‘not working hard enough’.
That line floats and dances in and out as you work through the days, weeks, months, years.
Isn’t there any other way besides the one we have now? Isnt’ there a BETTER way?
We’ve to really decide where out priorities lie because when push comes to shove, something’s gotta give.

Man, you entry comes once in a blue moon.
Well, that it's time to step back and see what are the your priorities in life. And learn to work towards those priorities.
Hi Matt!
I've still got a few more years before 'The Process' applies to me. :) I'd better enjoy these few years!

Hey Matthew! You must be really really busy with work!
I was just talking to Wei Xian online the other day, and we were reminiscing about choir days...We really should organize a choir reunion someday when everyone is back for holidays.
Take care!
