A New Equation
2008 June 18
I have been meeting up with my old high school buddies in Alor Star. Inevitably, we updated our friends on what we’re doing. Some said “one more semester towards graduation.” Some said “one more year.” Then, when a friend of mine told us that he has graduated, the person who sat next to him immediately corrected “No, he has been unemployed!”
Everyone chuckled at the quip. This witty equation makes sense nonetheless – being graduated = unemployment (畢業就是失業).
Oh yeah, I couldn’t agree more with that. The equation has been lingering in my mind during the last semester in college… Sigh. :p
The in-flight meal for MAS was great. Haven’t got the chance to try Cathay’s ones though.
Somehow or rather, it equates. LOL.
People have been lamenting about unemployment in Malaysia. Apparently, from what I read, one of the main reasons that causes unemployment among fresh graduates is “job pickiness.”
