Title: Do you believe that at the end of the day, it’s every man for himself?
Post by: Philipkee on Sep 07, 2024, 03:44 PM
And it's always ownself take care of ownself?

Beyond family and loved ones la

Examples
In army, commander gives orders to soldiers say I am commander I am in charge you follow orders.  Soldier follows and gets injured or dies.  Commander will come up with 101 legal reasons why it's not his fault

Management- tell employees company is ok.  Work hard and we will pull through.  Employees listen.  Retrenchment happens.  Management actually planned escape route liao.  Employees suck thumb and struggle being unemployed

In both cases, if the soldier and employee had thought of themselves first, they would have been better off but they would have cause chaos in the army or company. But they were thinking higher rank means higher responsibility but at the end of the day, even management or general is think for themselves and not for the organisation and they feel it's right

If that's the case then all the talk of loyalty is just propaganda

Loyalty to what and who?

Job? Family?

There are but those rare and few. And we may nv find out how loyal they are unless you face a crisis tgt

Everyone is selfish lah, even siblings cannot cooperate together, think abt money first. If you think people got empathy and very helpful, that's naive.

It's all about self benefit. No benefits, no loyalty whatsoever.
