i'm so disappointed in the world and the way people are brought up in my country. so mercenary and calculative.
i had a duty on thursday in the middle of my planned leave and i was looking for someone to cover it for me. the only 2 people who could possibly do it for me flatly refused because they finished their quota, and their main reason was, what if they had no duty next month for me to cover for them as a form of payback. working to build up a reputation as a dependable, reliable, trustworthy and honest person is useless when people are just so realistic. if you have no duty next month definitely can work out a form of compensation. i could always just report sick and have my i/c throw the duty to one of them, but that would be irresponsible. also next month they would definitely have duties still. because the replacements only come in the month after. sigh. yet there are redeeming people who have helped me and i would help them in return no questions asked. people like brian. he offered to cover my duty on monday just so that i could go see a dentist to solve my wisdom tooth problem and get an appointment to remove it asap. he did a weekday duty for me, and next month if his only duty is a weekend one i'll do it for him still no problems, even if i had to walk the whole day. people like these are worth helping because they help you unconditionally. he never expected me to do one for him next month anyway. i'm glad God put people like these in my life. how did i solve my problem eventually? i didn't. God helped me. a guy who had duty on another weekday came up to me and offered to exchange duties with me. i believe that it was God or Christ who had done that, to guide me to that option when i was out of options.
