Its been ages since I last blogged and lets just say i got tired of blogging..haaha,.Now I'm back in the mood to blog so im gona blog about something I've soo long wanted to tell..:)
Life took another twist when I helped my dad with his work as I was basically doing nothing..xD Let me introduce my dad, he is not very old but he works preety hard for a man his age..A totally down to earth man and i am thankful that i have him as my dad..I always was and will be proud to have a dad like you..:)..My dad drives a 3 ton lorry and he delivers goods for Siemens..When I say goods, it means chemical products..
So, my first day at work..dad woke me up and told me to wear some bigg clothes which are not to be used anymore...I got dressed up (man,i looked funnyy) and followed him to Shah Alam to load the goods..There were about 24 colummns of chemical water the first day with each weighing up to 120 kg..Bloody heavyyy.!!!
Bt I had noo choice, helping my dad was more of a necessity at that point of time..After loading all the goods we had to leave to Melaka to unload...Travelling in the lorry was not like travelling in the car..there was no aircond,bumpy all the way and it was freaking hoottttttt...We unloaded all the stuffs and got back home..Preety tiring but it was just the first day,..The best part was it got harder everytime i went..
During this 1 month, my relationship with dad became stronger than ever..we used to talk, joke, argue and work together..All those things he told me whether it was about girls or life, everything made complete sense and sometimes i was like 'daddyy, you dont have to tell that'..xD..Well, you preety much will talk about anythng when your in the lorry with no music player for 3 hours..xD
There were a few things I learned during that period...Dad taught me the hard way of life and that everyone deserves the same amount of respect..from a manager to a cleaner perhaps, you got to respect them..Work was always dirty, especially when it rains. Noo complains were allowed and dad told me that when it comes to work you work...rain or shine,dirty or clean..One of a few important lessons il ever learn..And to lift up a 120 kg colummn is never near the word easy. Dad taught me to work as a team, to use all our strengths for the best of everyone..I put on extra weight when i was working with him and i was getting darker..bt I didnt bother cos when you have to work, you work..nothing else matters :)
I wouldnt say I loved my job but then sometimes you gotta do wat you've gotta do..I knew my dad couldnt do this work himself and he definately needs help. But dad being himself, rarely asks for any help..I see alot of guys from church and other places and I can bet they dont quite know hardship..They are veryyy much pampered..I dont envy them tho, I pity them actually..Dad always tells me..real men are not born real men..they are made into the men they become through hardship and pain..We were preety much well to do ouselves when we were at Klang but after moving to Kajang, things were never the same..I wouldn't blame anybody tho..I believe that God is teaching us something new..
I learned that during times of trouble like this, the family gets closer than ever and you may not be in the best shape financially...but deep inside, you got that sense of joy..you know that amidst of all the hardship, there is a sense of hope if we stick together..Thats why I love to tell that I have the best family aroundd..I definately couldnt ask for more..:)
And dad got a new job..a much easier one with much more salaryy..cant wait to take his new lorry for a spin..;)
