u get up early for work, eyes dazed, mind in a blur. grab what u can from ur already empty kitchen. and u wander off to work driving a car that should’ve retired years ago.
u arrive in the opis and beep urself in.
u work hard and focus on doing ur job well – ur career depends on it. it’s way past opis hours before u get home, and if u’re lucky, spend time having dinner with frens or family.
more often than not u have time enuf to catch a short nap before 'the process' repeats itself.
luckily, ini bukan 'proses' idop aku. sbb aku selalu lambat pegi keja, sempat breakfast santai2 lagi kat rumah. dan kalau malas bawak waq gus, bley naek bas, or lrt, or kalau rasa mcm kaya, amek cab.
luckily jugak, aku tak perlu punch card. dan aku suka keja aku skrg, saaaangat bebas. walaupun kadang2 rasa bosan duduk dlm opis, but at least tak perlu berdepan dgn politik opis, sbb aku dah serik dgn semua tu. dan aku baaaaanyak masa utk diri sendiri.
taaaapiii...
the 'process' is perceived differently from persons to persons – some feel it’s about paying the dues, others see it as a system that’s ingrained into life in the working world.
the question is, where do u draw the line between exploitation and ‘not working hard enough’.
that line floats and dances in and out as i work through the days, weeks, months, years.
bukanlah aku tak bersyukur dgn the life that i'm living now, but really, isn’t there any other way besides this? isnt’ there a BETTER way?
or maybe it's time to step back and see what are actually the priorities in my life. and learn to work towards those priorities, becoz when push comes to shove, something’s gotta give.
