The Ugly Truth About Resorts World Genting
Not only the bad services I received from the front line employees of Genting Highlands, their internal operation is just as bad as politicians’ scandals.
I visited Genting a few days ago. I was EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED with the manners of certain employees. They were VERY RUDE! Spoilt all my mood.
I have a friend who has been working in the casino for 3 years. I met up with her only to realize that Genting doesn’t treat its employees well! This explains why the turnover rate is high.
My friend will be leaving this dark place soon. There is no future for most of the lowest level, front line employees. Promotion is given to those pretty women or those who can “wipe the shoes” for top management people. Otherwise, you lose out. Such a big company and this is how it runs. Injustice prevails.
I know it’s common for most big companies to have certain political issues but to the extent of such way of promotion, it’s just so ridiculous and unacceptable. Not to say the lousy services I encountered during my stay. If not because of the weather, I wouldn’t choose to go to Genting Highlands.

Housemates Gathering - PITSTOP
During study week, I had the first last gathering with my housemates as we are going on our separate ways after the exam. So we decided to take a break at PitStop. The only special thing here is the variety of games for us to play. Other than that, nothing else special. The food is normal. Not very nice but not that bad either.
A808 is the house where we have stayed for almost a year. Although sometimes I was struggling while staying there, it’s undeniable that I had fun time with them too! Take care pals! =)
Carrie Underwood - Temporary Home
A little too used to being alone
Another new mom and dad, another school,
Another house that'll never be home
When people ask him how he likes this place
He looks up and says, with a smile upon his face
This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know this is my
Temporary Home
Young mom on her own
She needs a little help, got nowhere to go
She's looking for a job, looking for a way out
Because a half-way house will never be a home
At night she whispers to her baby girl
Someday we'll find our place here in this world
This is our temporary home
It's not where we belong
Windows and rooms that we're passing through
This is just a stop, on the way to where we're going
I'm not afraid because I know this is our
Temporary Home
Old man, hospital bed
The room is filled with people he loves
And he whispers don't cry for me
I'll see you all someday
He looks up and says
This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passing through
This was just a stop on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know
This is our temporary home

Chris Medina - What Are Words
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see
How every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone
And I know an angel was sent just for me
And I know I'm meant to be where I am
And I'm gonna be
Standing right beside her tonight
And I'm gonna be by your side
I would never leave when she needs me most
What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone
Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
And I'm gonna be here forever more
Every single promise I keep
Cuz what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most
I'm forever keeping my angel close

Business Ethics
9 more hours to my 4th paper and here I am writing this post to recap what I’ve learnt so that I can put to good use later in exam.
Relativism: No ethical standards that are absolutely true that apply to all situations.
Absolutism: There is one set of unchanging moral rights that will hold true in all situations.
Descriptive Relativism: Accepts that different cultures have different standards.
Normative Relativism: Accepts that people have different opinion to justify their act.
Egoism: An action is morally right if it promotes self interest.
Utilitarianism: People should act in ways that produce the most happiness to the greatest number of people affected by our actions.
Principle of Duty: An obligation that an individual needs to fulfil as a result of his/her role in the society.
Principle of Right: Human beings have rights that ought to be respected.
Universalism: An action is ethical if people are willing to accept it as a universal conduct.
Principle of Ends: An act that treats human beings as end and never as mean.
Principle of Autonomy: Human beings have the freedom to make decision without being influenced by others.
Principle of Equal Liberty: Everyone has an equal right to be treated equally.
Principle of Fair Equality of Opportunity: Everyone has equal chance to improve his/her position in the society.
Principle of Difference: People should seek to serve the least advantage people to the greatest benefit.
………………………………………………………………………
There are so much more theories!!! At this point of time, I’m lazy to continue anymore. Does studying all these ethical theories really cultivate ethical behaviour?
NONSENSE!
Conclusion?
Examination is to satisfy the requirement of the society to prove that students meet the standards before being released to the working life.
