rules,rules & rules.

at work...
rules sometimes suck especially when you can't do anything about it. sometimes rules for other people sucks even though you're not affected by it.
why do I care anyway???
Because it's the most ridiculous rule i ever-ever heard!!!! seriously!

"IF YOU GAIN WEIGHT, YOUR SALARY WILL BE DEDUCTED"
- take note every kilograms or lbs. you'll gain will be counted as 100. (PS. I'm in Asia)  What do they want? Workers who are super skinny? & are not capable to work? or fat ones who are efficient?
NOT only they'll gonna deduct from your salary, but the "monthly weight list" was posted beside the scanning machine where everyone can see who lose or gain weight!!!!!

Duh! good thing it's only applicable for local workers., if that happens to us (Foreign workers) we'll sue them!!!!

So, what's the next possible rule???
let's guess!!!!

Your salary will be deducted because you're ugly? black? flat nose? short? super tall? etc!

Toil Is Meaningless

Just want to share this very inspiring words from the Bible, it gives me comfort & strength every time I'm reading this. The words will speak for itself, no further explanations.

So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun was grievous to me. All of it is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.  I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun, because I must leave them to the one who comes after me.  And who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill under the sun. This too is meaningless. So my heart began to despair over all my toilsome labor under the sun.  For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune. What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun? All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest.This too is meaningless.

A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God,  for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?  To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

...On Photographing the Moon

I was able to photograph the moon (a night) after the so called 'Blue Moon'. Last night's weather was gloomy & the sky wasn't clear, sooo nothing to see. But thanks GOD, tonight was clear so I grab my camera (D5100 w/ 55-200mm lens) & from my window shot this photos.
Hope you'll like it!
