每当在外, 看到老人家打工时, 心里总是很难受。
好比在Yoshinoya Bugis 快餐店外,发本店传单的老婆婆。
人潮来来往往, 也没人理她。
手里的传单不知握了多久, 才终于发出去。
人们的视线里, 似乎都看不到她。
矮小, 驼背的她, 时不时还要把传单放下, 赶紧快手快脚的把食客吃饱后的餐具清走, 好让其他食客有位坐。
看了心好疼。
为什么这样老了, 还要在外站几小时, 打工呢?
还在一间忙的分店工作。 人潮来来去去,持续不断。
她家人呢? 为什么舍得?
收走了餐具, 看到一群学生在门外,她以最快的脚步走上前, 告诉他们如果想吃, 不必担心没位子。她可以帮他们找, 还问全部有几位。。 这只不过是一间快餐店, 不是餐馆。。 天啊!! 还有那么关心的服务?? 就好像奶奶怕孙子饿坏了肚子。
现在的年轻人, 很讨人厌! 老婆婆站在前面热心的想帮他们找位子, 这些个个高头大马的学生 basically have no qualms at all to let her stand and was discussing among themselves, making her wait for their decision! Damn! come on man... yes, she is working and perhaps they thought for her to serve 是应该的, but at least open your eyes and see... she is after all an elderly.. it's sad to see just how well educated these youngsters can go but the basic courtesy and respect for others is disappointing! Zero, totally hopeless. Life is not all about scoring, making to the top, and points to dictate the goodness of a person nor how much a person is worth..
老婆婆看起来好疲倦。。 她是为了什么而那么卖力工作呢? 只为了能有一口饭吃, 养活自己吗?
手里握的一叠传单,照理应该很快就被发完。。。 但就是没发完。
我在看的当儿, 有一股冲动好想把那叠传单拿过来, 帮她发。 我想会比较快一些。
她就不用像八爪鱼,一会儿做这, 做哪。。 轻松一些。
我很欣赏老人刻苦耐劳的精神。 这是我要学习的。
我是其中一些常说好累的人。
老人不是更累, 辛苦吗?
但老人本身的答案总是, 不会辛苦, 以前更辛苦。
敬佩,敬佩。。
老人当然是能以他们能力范围内, 打工,打发时间。
不管背后打工是什么理由,也不是说要可怜他们, at least the next time you encounter an elderly who happens to serve you, please be thoughtful abit and make things easier for them. instead of seeing them just as a service staff. these oldies place great pride in their work too.
it's not easy to have to work when you are as old as 60plus, having to stand, clear plates, bending up down, trying to be fast and etc...
for eg, instead of making a mess on the table when you are eating (cos someone will clear it up anyway), which i have no idea how some people eat, at least keep clean. it's funny how food can appear on the floor.. if it drops, it's effortless to bend down and pick it up actually...
在这个忙碌的社会, 有多少人会发现一小部分的服务业其实是老人?
这些老人是被社会忽视的一群。
在我们的世界里, 他们是被排除在外的。
我觉得我国的老人好辛苦。。
