=Do not see work as work=
Work is defined as to have an effect or outcome. Exactly, why most of us are so lazy to work? Are we so silly we could not see the outcome of working hard? Strive hard to achieve triumph – an old saying even in which the advisor himself could not accomplish everytime. The life is funny and fun to understand. We’re the smartest species and it does not make sense at all if we can’t see an immediate outcome out of a simple job. How about seeing the outcome but did not find it interesting or propelling enough for ourselves to persevere the hard work especially countless and repeated jobs like auditing?

What comes first into your mind when someone tells you to work? Endless day, boring, yawning, pressure and more work – this is my answer, currently, but I guess from now on I should change my idea about working, especially when realizing pessimistic mindset like this will not bring me any further in my career start.

I received this fwd email today and got agitated by illiterate smartarse like these ones.

The message goes with a short passage written by the fwd mail author followed by a scanned newspaper.

"
Cannot eat Pringles chips any more

For those who don't read Chinese:

The chemical used in Pringles is also used in hair-perm chemical, a very harmful chemical even on a very insignificant quantity (will cause kidney cancer), adult shouldn't consume more than 0.01g per day while children not more than 0.003g!

Product called back from all HK markets & banned in USA !! It contains cancer causing ingredient for those who don't read Chinese! STOP EATING PRINGLES NOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!

Please see attached article..

"
Obviously the author doesn't know how to read a newspaper article. The cancer-causing chemical has to be consumed up to a certain amount and prolonged consumption to cause cancer. He/she said stop eating it, it can cause cancer even in insignificant amount. What is insignificant amount by the way? some drugs are effective in minute "micrograms" amount. In other countries like china and EU, this chemical can't be used at all, in other words, Pringles in these countries doesn't contain the carcinogen complained! This email is crossing national borders to everyone and the author is telling "dear all" it will kill you if you eat it? Rediculous.

The HK and US government allow this chemical to be used in pringles, part of the responsibility goes to them?
