Poor performer needed

Recently, I received an enlightenment from a co-worker.
I was constantly pissed off with the "not up to standard" of some people (many are the high level staffs) in the current company.
I am definitely not the best performer but I care about the well fair of the company and understand my decision and performance affect the company growth in a way of its own. I work and be responsible of my area.
However, there are a couple of workers that receive high pay and did not deliver their tasks. Why do company need these people?

Reason: when come to the annual ranking; there got to have people at the bottom of the chart. Without these "low level" people, the worthy people will be demoralize if they were ranked below and not receive the bonus.
Can you imagine if you were rank among the best; you will be at the bottom - Not nice! It's a world of survivor wins.
Therefore, there are some managers that employ these "low level" people for this purpose; this will guard the good and worthy staffs.

Of course, thing is different if the organization is corrupted; still, we need the good and bad people.
Like we need different level of skills which translate to pay scale different.
Like we need the food chain where the weak got killed so that the strong can continue the chain.

Make sense?

Reason why I need to Work -> Salary -> Travel -> Pleasure and Food -> Friends -> HAPPINESS!

Bad service

Am I getting paranoid? I wish I can go home. At least I got bad service but not these rock bottom service.

The cars refused to give way to pedestrians.
People refused to queue to get their food
The shop owner ignore your order even you are in the first in the queue.
So, I walked off without getting my lunch..
I have been thinking - why?
Was it my attire? or Was the shop busy?

The day before, I head to the mall after work to get some gift and the service was great.
Today, I head to the mall with a simple tee and dress down day. I receive no attention at all.
Man!

Sweet tooth

Was at Chinatown over the weekend and found that it has been reform.
It is no longer the Chinatown that is in my memories; not sure if that is a good thing.
Anyway, the desert does look attractive but taste was average.

Try if you have a chance.

Mango and Strawberry milk shaved ice


Chestnut cake


Mango and Pomelo - This is exactly the same desert that was served in a wedding dinner which I had attended on the same day :)

Gosh, I need a break.
