Well, back to that 'M' question. The question arises because he's talking about hiring more people. No matter how much sex indiscrimination talk at a work place is out there, employers are still hesitant to hire females who are married, especially young ladies when pregnancy and maternity leave will come into the picture. I don't blame employers totally. When a company, especially small ones, hires new staff, they want people who can work for at least
My reply to him, "Why you so kay-poh one?" And he retorts, "I need to do my manpower planning!" I didn't answer him and after some more talking (he talks, I pretend to listen), he left. Oh God... he can really talk until my face turns blue.
Only last week, somebody asked me the same question. What is it with these people? They probably thought marriage is my only goal now, or the only goal of single ladies out there. I have to disappoint them and am being very happy to do that.
What I want is to be happy. I'm not exactly unhappy now but I feel like there is something else out there for me. Something that will probably change my life, yank me out of my comfortable zone and gives me the exuberance I once have when I started working... when everyone started working. After a while, all the enthusiasm and joy of working dissipated in inverse relationship with ones age. Whatever that something is, I haven't figured it out yet. But I know it is out there.
And no, marriage talk did not give me the exuberance feeling I'm looking for.
