WHAT'S WITH THE YOUNG PUNKS THESE DAYS?

Is it a case of lack of commitment, upbringing or educational system these days that are different. Or is it because there are lots of job choices?

I had a 24-year old coming to work 3 days and decided that he would not come on the 4th day. Another 23-year old confirmed starting work today to only sms me this morning at 12.30am to say he had decided to continue his studies. Duh?

And it is not like I had never warned them the demands of the job during the TWO interviews i conducted with them, the abominable boss, and they had nothing but only disilluionment of the glitz and glamour of this industry had to offer in the beginning.

Now I also have to deal with the emotions of another returning 40-something year old staff who feels the junior staff are not giving him enough repect. What the...... ah........whatever, as if Im not busy enough to have had performed seven shows in seven days last week.

Ok, so here goes, my last week's pole performance and first time ever for a heartland crowd. Nevermind some who were there to take a peek underneath the skirts. The majority of the audience were sincere, appreciative and simply adorable

Pardon some of the typo errors, if any. I have to get back to work to conduct my "human relations" role

Yo! Sister, u are HOT STUFF!!!! Bet the aunties & uncles are still gasping for breath!!!

Hey, different generation lah! And the thing is the more "glamourous" the industry, the more hardwork there is. Pp don't realise that. They think it is just abt looking good and standing around and money will come yr way. Dream on, baby. Want to hire me or not?!
