Definition of unfair: comparing to the past or other people in your time

"WAH WHY LIKE THAT ONE HE CAN GET A BUT I CANNOT"

or

"WAH WHY FATHER CAN GET A BY STANDING ONLY BUT I NEED TO RUN"

Well, son, life is unfair. Get over it. I'm sorry your teachers never told you that and probably my fault too since I never told you so

kecian SPM. standard so low but fight so hard for nothing

I am NOT over-reacting.

There was a classmate of mine. His grades were much better than mine.

Today he works as a mechanic.

Why ?

Simply because the marker failed his BM paper (his BM is SUPERB, no way he could have failed that paper, but it's a long story ...) and because of that he LOST ALL CHANCE OF GETTING ANY HIGHER EDUCATION.

He was from a very poor family. Family simply couldn't support him to study abroad (without BM paper you can't enroll in _any_ of the local U) so he ended up working as a mechanic.

I am not implying that working as a mechanic is a "cheap job" or what, I am saying that, that classmate of mine WAS A MATERIAL FOR GREAT HEIGHT, based on his grades.

He could be a damn good lawyer or damn good engineer or doctor or whatever, but now, he's a mechanic.

Why? Because some farker who marked his BM paper failed had cut off all the blood supply he needs to further his education.

And btw, at that time there was NO way to petition for a "remarking" of your paper. Once the MOE says that you failed, you failed, end of story.
