A worldwide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was: "Would you please
give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?" The survey was a huge failure. In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant. In Eastern Europe
they didn't know what "honest" meant. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage"
meant. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant. In the Middle East they didn't know
what "solution" meant. In South America they didn't know what "please" meant. And in the
USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
Speaking different languages between the government and the people. Here are some excellent examples.
While on the cruise last week, we asked the Windjammer server regarding the steamboat. She brought us some steam buns. We demonstrate a pot and cooking food in it. She went we called it 'hot-pot.'
I got up from the table to fill up my drink from nearby. Forgot to wear my mask. The guy promoting the package of drinks approached me and said something. Thinking he was selling me the drinks, I said NO. Then I heard mask, order and law. I put on my mask which was under my chin.

What a widow in her 70s was put through by a robotic and unsympathetic system?
ReplyDeleteMy father died a few months back. I tried helping my mother in transferring the helper to her
name, but I was unable to do so on the website. I took a day off from work to visit MOM at
Havelock Road with my mother, but was redirected to Bendemeer Road.
After 7 days, she received a reply at midnight that her application was unsuccessful, with
a tick in a box that she did not accompany her bank account during her application. Huh
did we know? She was asked to appeal. She slept with her phone beside her. At midnight
she got woken up by a buzz on her phone ( she hasn't been sleeping well on the bed, which
had been empty since my father passed away). Half asleep she called me up at midnight that
her application was rejected and she forwarded me the mail from MOM, asking for help to
write an appeal. She is now living alone with the helper. The agent fees for doing
the transfer was going to be $850 excluding GST. After going back to my parent's place
and read what all the rejection was, I sent her bank accounts with the appeal.
All they could have done was ask if she would send her bank accounts without sending her
all the bullshit about rejection and appeal. This elderly lady had just cremated her
husband of 47 years.
