So it's like going back to familiar ground

next to the losers who complain that they did not have enough education, what i hate about these people going back to work in ktv again, is that they blame society for not giving them chances to get a proper job.

i have seen many being given the chance, especially in retail. i can often see those who really tried to get out working in the perfume/cosmetics sections in big departmental stores... but alas, not for long... tell u why:- everyday stand, leg pain...

a few went into beauty line, and for my ex-gf, she has had enough qualifications to walk into any beauty chain and demand a job, and most probably, she will get it.

but such jobs will only net them about $2k/mth... still must pay income tax, must pay for own drinks and stuff!!! they r complaining why they can make almost $7-8k a month!!! hell, even an accountant with 5 years experience might not be able to make that kind of $!!!

so all in all, sorry to say, all excuses. but no offence meant to u in bursting their little lies...

Neh........... dun worry about it as there isn't any offence.

Can understand where u r coming from as it is all too familiar that they will try for the retail sector instead of those office work.

Almost same analogy for a bookie trying to get a normal 9 to 5 job

office job quite difficult lah... the pay even lower lor!!! most likely can only be receptionist or general clerk, that is if they can type. know of 1 girl, became receptionist... kept telling me that she couldnt keep her eyes open cos too used to sleeping in the day liao... she persevered for about 6 months. finally found someone to marry and from then on, never worked liao. whole day can spend on watching those drama serials...

let's just face it... they dont have much education and cant expect much... actually retail still got commission and stuff, except that the hours r longer.

one thing i have to say, i really pity those guys who fall for the lies of WLs. i ever heard from WLs that the guys going after them were trying to get them to change to a proper job... duh!!! they even go cut out those recruit ads from papers for the WLs to go apply... if bros here have such friends, tell them no use lah!!! they will just leave them unread and lying around... but of course will tell the guys that they have applied but no news from the companies... haiz...

bro, can marry WL... just dont let people know. but even after people find out (eventually), just make sure dont be poor lor... people, especially in sg, they "xiao pin bu xiao chang"... hooker, mistress, people close 1 eye... poor, been to jail (unless u celebrity lor), people "siam" faster than SARS lor...

Maybe we're reading too much into it... maybe all she wants is good sex with multiple partners... is that so wrong?

Pretty much the same as gynaecologists... very few people get all stressed up and think of work when they see a pussy.

Report from The New Paper dated Monday 14 May 2007 :-

I gave up everything for love - Former civil servant recalls how Geylang prostitute became his wife This report inspired a reader to tell us his own love story with a Thai girl

IT may be hard to understand why he chose to give up so much for someone who sold her body for money.

He resigned from his civil service job, turned his back on a flashy lifestyle and left Singapore, just to marry the Thai national, in 2002.

He ended up jobless in Bangkok, with his wife supporting him and their two children.

Now back and working at two jobs here, Ben, 35, just wants to be with his wife, 30, who used to be a sex worker in Geylang.

His parents are still clueless about his wife's past.

Ben, who asked that his real name be withheld, fears they won't be able to live with the stigma. He told The New Paper on Sunday: 'I will never tell them. I will keep this secret as long as I am alive.'

The diploma holder was moved by the love story of Singaporean Wai Keen Weng.

Mr Wai, a 32-year-old delivery man, used up all his savings to fight for the release of his Thai fiancee, Amue Athu, a former sex worker serving a one-year jail sentence for entering Singapore illegally.

Mr Wai claimed that Amue, 24, was a victim of human trafficking and had been forced into prostitution. He is still trying to stop her from being deported, by appealing to the President.

It was their story that inspired Ben to call The New Paper on Sunday to share his own.

Like Mr Wai, who used to have a lucrative job in a family business, Ben had everything going for him.

He used to drive fancy cars and splurged on branded goods, he claimed, and dated attractive air stewardesses and professionals.

But his life changed when he met the Thai prostitute.

Ben said: 'I have tried to apply for my wife's long-term stay in Singapore but was rejected twice.

'Since she is not welcome in Singapore, I was willing to give up everything here to be with her in Bangkok.'

He quit his job, sold his car and left.

He said his relatives and friends are still puzzled over the sudden move.

Only one person, his best friend, knows the reason.

Ben's best friend, who wanted to be known only as MrLim, said: 'I was shocked when he first told me that he wanted to marry a prostitute.

'But after he explained to me why he loves her so much, I tried to understand and support him.

'He's a grown-up and I trust that he has thought about it thoroughly.'

Mr Lim, 28, a civil servant, has met Ben's wife on a few occasions. He said she came across as friendly and polite.

Ben first met his wife in a Geylang brothel in 2002. He had gone there with a group of friends.

PAID $130 A NIGHT
He was smitten by her good looks and paid $130 to spend a night with her. Then they exchanged phone numbers.

She called him later and they kept in touch by phone.

On a day she was not working, Ben took her to Sentosa.

'She wore a casual long-sleeved blouse and jeans, nothing sexy.

'Although she speaks little English, we were able to understand each other and we had a great day together,' he recalled.

He visited her a week later. And paid to have sex with her.

She had only one day off in a month. So whenever he wanted to see her, he had to go to the brothel.

Soon, Ben found himself back at the brothel every night.

But they did not have sex every night, he said. Sometimes, they just chatted throughout the night.

Unlike other women he has known, he said she cooked for him and showered him with care and love.

She would buy him shirts and plenty of essence of chicken. Ben was touched.

'She cares for others more than herself. Once, I gave her money to buy a new watch. But I found out later that she used the money to help a friend who had just lost her mother,' Ben said.

'We could understand each other well. We could read each other's minds easily.'

Ben fell in love with her and he could not stand the thought of his loved one sleeping with other men.

So he paid the brothel $5,000 to break her contract.

But she had to leave Singapore after that, and was barred from re-entering for two years.

That was when Ben quit his job here and flew to Bangkok to marry her.

He used up his savings of about $10,000 to start a restaurant there. But it failed and closed down after 18months.

The couple lived in a one-bedroom rented apartment on the outskirts of the city, with their two children, now aged 2 and 4.

WIFE SUPPORTED FAMILY
'I was broke and had no money to return to Singapore,' Ben said. 'My wife had to work to support the family.'

She told him she was working as a beer promoter, but he found out later that she was prostituting herself just to make ends meet for the family.

'It was the worst time of my life. I felt like I was living in hell. I cried every day as I felt so useless,' he recalled.

'Being a foreigner, I couldn't get a job easily.

'After two to three months, my wife made enough money for me to get a ticket home.

'Which woman would do that? If she's someone who's just after my money, she would have just kicked me out of the house when I was down and out.'

After he returned to Singapore last year, he began living with his parents again.

During the day, he works in a construction firm and at night, he works as a security guard.

He sends $500 to $2,000 to his wife and kids every month. And he visits them every six weeks.

After the two-year ban on his wife was lifted in 2005, she and the children visited him here, as tourists.

Ben told his parents that he had fallen in love with a Thai woman and started a family with her in Bangkok.

Asked about his long-term plans, Ben replied: 'I just want to make more money and move to Bangkok to be with my wife and children.'

contrary to preconceptions that cultured pearls come from cultured oysters... what i know is that uncultured oysters will never have cultured pearls, and also cultured oysters might not produce cultured pearls. which is why real cultured pearls r some hard to come by and r of course, pricey... now, the correct question is: "can we apply this to women???"

Yikes! I must be in the wrong end of the industry.

The only reason that she would want to keep her own child would be to feed off him/her when they grow up. I've seen that happen... confused kid working hard to pay off parent's gambling debts.

Only Oysters I know are Perpetual. The Submariner in me still wants to be the Explorer that finds his Yatch-Master.

Thats a compliment. No one in his right mind would want to slave so much, make money and not have time to spend it... cosmetic surgeons excluded.

I'm a simple bloke. I just wanna put my culture in them oysters.
