Trying Times

Last night my hub's best friend called him to inform that he will be retrenced by his multinational company in Shah Alam. The last day would be end of February. The news came as a shock to us... and he himself could not believed it was happening. Before the company announced the closing of its operation, they have offered VSS 3 times since October last year.
The key for this trying period, is that we still need to spend...wisely. But we think that when there's limited cash, there's no way we can spend. But by stop spending, there won't be buy and sell activities. When there is no demand, the supply will also stop. Therefore workers will be put to retrenchment.... This is the chain reaction thingy. A good company should absorb their losses during this hard time as much as they enjoy their profits during the good times.
That's why people, we should save when we got cash, (***and spend it when we don't??? Hmmmm**)!!!
To my hub's bestfriend, we know that you'll make it through. There's a silver lining in every sky.

  5. Hmm tulah kan...kadang2 kita nie kerja cam nak mati nak meet KPI ler...nak make sure assessment bagus lah...tapi bila company in bad time cam nie tak ingat semua apa yang kita dah buat untuk company...so camner...senang citer jangan lah put priority on our job...sebab bila kita susah company takkan letak kita sebagai priority depa...sad but true...
