Please forgive me for my ramblings yesterday in KTM... Yes, I am still unsatisfied with the 2 half- women.. Did I mention one of the imbuhsul body odor stinkss? Oh already? Now I have traumas on body odors of sex exchange men.. Wow.. Now that's complicated..

Done with yesterday's ramblings.

I need to settle down this year. I am striving for it and I hope I succed. Amin!

迷惑(read: meiwaku)

迷惑です！（めいわくです）

Meiwaku is a Japanese word that has a nebulous definition.  It approaches the English word 'inconvenience' in meaning but it encompasses a much greater range of ideas.  Most simply put, it's anything that causes trouble or shame for other members of the groups you belong to.  Each person has the right to take pride in the reputation of their group but at the same time has a responsibility to maintain that reputation.

The core of meiwaku is the idea of group membership.  Everyone is defined by the groups they are a part of: the neighborhood you live in, the school you graduated from, and even the company you work for.  If you bring dishonor or hurt the reputation of the groups you're in, it reflects on the whole group.  Because of this, there's a huge amount of self-policing and peer pressure within groups to conform to the standards of the group and of society.

Meiwaku range from walking in late to a meeting to executives embezzling funds from their company or accepting bribes to car crashes.  The only way to atone for these meiwaku is to apologize profusely in an overly melodramatic fashion by western standards: "I deeply, deeply, regret that a person of my wretched status inflicted a meiwaku on my esteemed fellow members."  Another example of these apologies are the yearly statements released by the Japanese government on December 7, apologizing to the Japanese people for the great meiwaku they committed in 1941.  You don't even have to know the person to have a meiwaku inflicted on you.  Say you work for a large company, for example Enron.  It's discovered that several executives have been embezzling funds from the company.  Even though you have never met the executives or even know who they are, they have committed an atrocious meiwaku on the every employee of the company.

The whole concept of meiwaku is meant to preserve the wa; 和.  Wa is the Japanese word for "peace" or "harmony" and represents the absence of conflict.  Everyone can accept that social harmony is preferable to individualistic anarchy but in the United States, social harmony usually is balanced against the right of an individual to make their own choices.  In Japan, however, wa wins out nearly every time; people having more loyalty to the harmony of the group than to their own interests.  In fact, wa itself is frequently not only a means but a goal in and of itself for society.    By minimizing  and apologizing for meiwaku, both accidental and intentional, that are committed, people create a state of wa.

Tulah, perasan pandai sangat! (refer to cerita mamat K*REA tempat kerja aku in previous entry)

本当に迷惑ですよ黄鵡やろう。

Meiwaku desuyo. Majide! Aaaahh.. Puas!

Jangan ikut cakap orang bulat2, investigate dulu laa....

 Aku tahu bulan puasa, kita perlu mengawal nafsu Amarah. Ya, aku sedang berusaha, tapi, kena jugak cerita.

Well, there is this on K*R**n guy in my Team. (Yes, the * is a nationality). I am not judging him on his nationality, because I have seen more decent human being from his Country. Therefore, please ignore the Nationality.

Yes, and memang bulan Puasa. Tp, orang tuh tak puasa! Pasal tuh dia bleh buat menda sesuka hati.

Ok. kita buat kerja ikut standard. Follw the Rules la wei budak... Nak kata budak, xbudak dah... 27 tahun tuh, setahun muda jer.. Tapi, memang xreti buat kerja!

Kenapa ko suka2 hati aje buat Solution tanpa merujuk L2?? Kenapa ko pandai2 jer, sebab 1 user buat mcm tuh, lain User pun sama? Hello?? Condition User lain daripada satu sama lain. How can you say something permanent without even seeking advice from L2? Is ti because your English is like Taik Lembu?? That's why you try to prepare the simplest Solution to user, is it? You want easy job, is it?

Well, let me tell you this. Baru masuk kerja memang la dapat kerja senang, bodoh! Kalau ko dah nak dekat setahun, tak kan orang still nak kasi ko kerja senang??!! Stupid dum dum la ko nih! If you know the job is not simple, then face it lah! Work hard about it!

And you are so stubborn, egoist MALE! You won't even provide me with a ticket for Reference. Kedekut? Stingy or you have just realized your mistake? Hah! Memang dari dulu bangsa EGOist! Tak reti mintak maaf? I mean, among collegues, just a simple Sorry would do, but YOU?

Do you think that by making an apology, meaning that you would throw your pride away? Kalau you CEO fo the company, maybe aku paham lah... Tapi, ko kuli bangsat je ok... Oopppsss... Crossed the border line? Aku pon kuli bangsat jugak... Tapi, xderlah sebangsat ko.

Ok, enough with the shoutings in the heart. heh.

I am planning not to talk to him anymore. Yes, he has been making my life miserable and I hate him. I even hate myself more for believeing him and following his stupid solutions.

Yes, I won't be manipulatized by him anymore. I am bringing up the fences and my Guards. Go away Stupid Man!

P/S: Excuse me, I know it's Ramadhan. But I can't stand it. Especially when Didie-chan is away on Holidays.
