Reeny needs to rant!

Yes, I do!

I’m becoming a victim… and you know why? It’s because of people who have no ability to use English language at all! When I say have no ability to use English, I meant can’t even understand, read, write, speak or communicate in English language at all!

I know I probably sound very racist but if you read further, you will understand why I am so angry.

CASE SCENERIO ONE

I was asked to help this lady who doesn’t understand English at all to fill in a form.

Yes I can help you but how many times can I help you? You mean, I can always be there for you and I’m like your freaking babysitter who takes care of your life? You take advantage of the fact that you think I need to pity you for not understanding English. It’s annoying when you tell me you need to get things done and yet you’re dependent. If you can’t even take good care of your own life, then don’t do things that you can’t handle!

In actual fact, I do not pity you for your misfortune because I believe that you asked for it and probably deserved it.

CASE SCENERIO TWO

I’ve been told by work migrants that they want a better life, which is why they migrate to Australia (and they can’t speak Engish).

I think this is all bullshit. You came here to torture yourself. You came here for the MONEY. Just say it! Migrating here just make you become a loner (if you can’t speak the local language, how are you gonna make friends?)!

If you want a better life, then LEARN how to say the following words ‘I WANT A BETTER LIFE’ loud and clear, rather than hiding behind me, whispering me to my ears with another language and expecting me to HELP you tell the world what you want them to do with you.

Open your eyes and see what is around you. Do you even deserve me to tell you what you can do with life?

CASE SCENERIO THREE

A lady turned up in a three shop Northbridge (The three company workers obviously can speak and need English for their work description) because she can’t understand what the person on the phone asked her through three customer care service.

She expected the poor lady who works there to translate for her what the guy on the phone asked her AND she freaking forgot her 4 digit pin number! She can’t even remember her mom’s maidan name?! WTF?! The worker there is merely a three shop worker and translation, I believe, is not part of her job.

Some people are paid to handle customers like you but please, go learn SOME English before heading over here and turn your life into a disaster.

AND don’t go around complaining that because you had no choice blah blah blah you had to come here blah blah blah. Don’t disgrace yourself. Before you criticise someone, criticise yourself first. You chose this to happen, so accept the hardship involved. Don’t take things for granted!

-x-

I think those people should either…

Go back to where they come from or,
Go learn English.

I admire those who go and take English lesson and to try their best to fit in with the environment, rather than those we expect people to fit in with THEIR environment.

The world doesn’t evolve around you!

P.S. I’m not here to offend anyone but I just wanted to express and rant about my discomfort. Some of you might have different views cause of your cultural background. But I have my own opinion about this issue which is why I want to write them here. Don’t make a big fuss about it.
