MC + Correctness vs Kindness

Hi readers,

di malam2 yang galau ini (ceilehh galau bok) mau cerita neh..

Sedikit tentang hari ini :
Gw MC bok, well not literally MC sih, gw ijin kerja karena sakit dan gw males MC karena gw pikir outcome nya gak worth it (20 for medicine, 35 is my daily pay thus i just get 15 for going to south spine and getting an MC while I am able to rest in my room for free, which is better to me LOL)

Karena tadi pagi bangun trus badan gw sakit semua trus meriang trus panas gitu rasanya (bukan panas kayak di gurun yeh, panas kyk demam!!) Tapi sekarang udah oke dan besok gw bakal dtg kerja lagi kok! Hihi..

2nd thing to ceritakan (lol @ my grammar T_T)

Gw mau coba kasih cerita yang imaginary BUT might happen in real life.. Ini juga build up dari pengalaman gw yang similar tapi gak seekstrim cerita gw ini lahh.. Here goes :

Budi (Yer typical schoolboy) sedang ulangan. Di soal ulangan (by the way it's an english test) tertulis :
1. How's the relationship between the word "marvelous" and "awesome"?

He answered : They're good friends.

The teacher gave 0 marks for that question. Tapi Budi protes ke guru nya, marah2 dan berkata "I answered correctly!! What is the right answer according to you maam?" She says "Of course the coreect answer is "they are synonyms of the word great!! And moreover you're being disrespectful by giving a joke of an answer!!" Then Budi takes it further "OH If you're looking for an answer like that, you should have asked 'WHAT is the relationship... not HOW is the relationship!!! Are you competent enough to teach ENGLISH maam?!"

Yeap segitu aja cerita gw. Yang gw mau sampaikan disini adalah : Budi is not wrong (YEP he's technically correct) but by doing so he's being a douche. The thing is, most people these days, they are not wrong, but they do correct things in a way that induces a negative effect as to the whole environment... Dalam kata lain dia gak bikin situasinya jadi lebih baik..

Sama aja kayak orang yang ngomong "excuse me" rudely to an elder yang ngalangin jalan dan bikin orang2 di belakangnya jadi terhambat/very slow. Maksud dia baik, bikin orang2 jadi jalannya lebih cepet, tapi kan bisa ngomong excuse me nya sopan gitu.. This is a very usual case in SG ya kan?! Hahaha

Sama aja kayak orang yang debat sama polisi di jalan sampe bikin macet karena ditilang atas alasan yang obscure. Gw gak blang dia salah, apalagi kalo emang polisinya yang salah in the first place, tapi by berdebat dan gamau ngalah (at least talk things nicely lah, gausa pake debat marah2) dan bikin macet (well this is a specific condition, most of the time gak bakal bikin macet sih) dia kan jadi merugikan orang lain. dan dia juga leave the day grumpy. (tapi ada efek samping polisi indo yang memang sudah di posisi yang "GW SALAH TAPI GW POLISI CUI" jadi qt mau minta surat tilang/denda juga emang mesti emosi dulu sih yah hahaha.. :p

The point is, let's do things not only correctly, but also nicely/with love (ceileh with love ud kayak ending surat cinta aja nehh lololol)

Sekian readers, tunggu kisah2 saya selanjutnya yo! :)
