肚量

-
试问，假如你有个同事刚为她的新生儿庆祝满月， 你会不会与同事们合买一份礼物给她？

我的同事们大多数都有出钱合买礼物给她与小宝宝，只是有两位兼职的同事，可能因为工资较少， 家里有年迈多病的父母， 所以没有和我们参与此活动.

为了答谢我们，该同事昨天把拿蛋糕的卡送来办公室. 我们让审计部经理帮我们领取蛋糕. 今早，蛋糕被领了回来，大家都很开心的吃着，只有Q，她认为那两位兼职同事，因为没有“贡献”， 所以不应该吃那个蛋糕. Q 认为他们总是这样，叫他们出钱的时候，老是不给，但有的吃时，就总是会去吃.

我和L 都说 Q 没肚量， 因为蛋糕卡上都写上”for my colleagues”.难道，这两位兼职同事不是我们的同事吗？

真希望 Q 能为其他人着想，并不是每个人都像她这样有钱，每一家都有一本难念的经.

Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien

There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.

I guess Darling, SR & Rich want to watch "Memiors of A Geisha", especially after the ladies were so engrossed in the book at MPH during our last meeting. It can be afternoon or nite show, but afternoon is preferred as I would like to avoid the crowd shopping for CNY goodies & clothes. I would like to call the following people.

I started my day early today at 8.30am. I was helping my mum with the flower decoration & slept at 1am last night. Had received CNY sms messages from my ex colleague, LS, Angela, Rebecca, Darling, Caifeng, Huixuan, Huiyu, Mac, Jaslyn, Joey, Candy , Kelvin, Rich & Mike. Thanks for all your well wishes, my friends. The 1st stop was at my grandma's place, which we were lucky to get a cab almost immediately after waiting for just a short while. In the ride, my mum & I were chatting casually about some issues that happened in S'pore recently, when we actually touched on the old cobbler cheating Vietnamese gals to be his bride. The cabby told us an incident that happened to his friend. His friend, a guy aged 39 had married a Thai gal aged 23 some years ago. Soon after, they became parents to a baby boy. When the boy turned 3, the gal took away the money in the joint bank account with her husband. The savings totalled to about $100,000, which the guy had saved for years fr...
