which job don't need hard work wor?? only depends on whether u willing to do or not lor.

go to work also need to be scolded by boss. if u r boss also need to see ur clients' black face. everyone also need to see everyone else's black face.

if so easy, everyone also don't need to work, goyang kaki ler.  doh.gif
get from those agencies that also supply maids lor. some ppl get from there to do stall/restaurant work also.

btw, i thought abt it and i think rojak, chicken wings, are few things that don't need too many preparations.

rojak. buy fruits, buy rojak sauce by bulk and add chilli paste or make urself only. no need cooking skills also. just good at cutting fruits fast and nicely

chicken wings. buy chicken wings, add marinate then overnight. open stall then panggang and sell.

both things also don't need so special cooking skills and hardly can make until so terrible no one will buy. lol

belum cuba belum tau ler. i rather see these ppl who wanna go ahead and do it than just talk talk talk all day about what could have been. let them go ahead and do it than discourage them lar.

so what if u fail??
failing is the mother of success (chinese saying)

having no ambition is the only sure-fire way towards failure. not failing once or twice.

lexiqa,

<<which job don't need hard work wor?? only depends on whether u willing to do or not lor.>>

How many people work 60 to 80 hours per week on their job?? That is HARD WORK. Anything less than that is just working....

Okay. Let's say that you are SUCCESSFUL. What is there to stop people from COPYCATTING the same business??

ahpoh,

lexiqa CLAIMED that no special skill is REQUIRED. So, she is the ONE that you need convincing...

<< both things also don't need so special cooking skills and hardly can make until so terrible no one will buy>>

In fact, HAINANESE Chicken Rice is EVEN EASIER. So, WHY not EVERYONE make a GOOD Chicken Rice??

lexiqa,

Let's look at this two different POVs.

A) YOUR ASSUMPTION

People are AFRAID to try so that they could not succeed at anything.

B) MY ASSUMPTION

People always try MANY THINGS but NEVER stay at ANYTHING long enough to be SUCCESSFUL.

<<skills are just whatever u know put into practice over and over again until u are used to and good at it, isn't it?>>

So, it is NOT as easy as you just buy EVERYTHING from supermarket and just assemble.. It requires SKILL and /or HARD WORK.

And. let's be REALISTIC here. For anything that is SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS, a person has to EXPECT COMPETITION.

YOUR BELIEF is (A). People just need to try and they will be SUCCESSFUL.

MY BELIEF is (B). The PROBLEM is NOT about TRYING. It is LACK of FOCUS and EXECUTION.

The QUESTION is in general. Is (A) or (B) more prevalent??

A person could be SUCCESSFUL in job, business, or whatever. A person could be rich selling Wanton Noodle, Chicken Rice, or whatever if they are WILLING to put in the NECESSARY EFFORT in order to be successful. Now, if a person COULD NOT take a little bit of COLD WATER from someone in a forum, that person has NO BUSINESS to do this kind of stuff. The REAL WORLD is a hell lot tougher.
