Went for job interview in the afternoon, but the original job that I was going to interviewed for, I felt very uncomfortable with the place plus, the store wasn't even opened! Strange...I thought I had spoken to the person-in-charge during the morning? I then went to a nearby cafe for interview. Seriously, half the time, I do not know what was the interviewer talking about cos she has a very heavy Indian accent along in her English! It is a 6 days work week. After I informed BaoBei about the job, he was objecting very fiercely. He said that he do not wish that we will become like one of his best friend's relationship.
On my way home, I spoke to BaoBei on the phone. He said something that makes me think through a lot of things. I told him that I feel very burden on our finances and that if I were to be selected for this 6 days work, he can find his own entertainment with his friends or go to services alone, while I work. He said that each time he went out with his friends, they spend quite a big amount on things. What he said was true, cos whenever we went out with his friends, they will either dine at very expensive restaurants, or those expensive cafes like "Billy Bombers"(The price there is super steep!!!) and went to T.C.C cafe to drink. Maybe for them, these amount seems nothing to them but for me, as I am a low-income earner, I feel very burden and stress whenever I go out with them. Do you know what did he said that makes me think a lot? He said this,"I don't mind being poor, to the extend that we both shared one piece of bread together. I rather to be poor and spend quality time with you, than to have you out there working almost 7 days a week, that we hardly have time for each other!" He also mentions that weekends is the only time we could see each other and if I were to work weekends too, to the extend that he can't sees me, he's afraid we might end up like one of his best friend - a breakup
I have mix feelings towards my own thoughts: Is money really that important?
