do you know?

me to dad: why do they only come up with the tsunami warning system after the tsunami has striked?and it's only at phase one after more than a year since it happened?

dad: well,you only start looking for the toilet when you feel like shitt-ting right?

me: but in this case,you've already shitted!what's the use of the toilet?

dad just shrugs.

someone told me this yesterday night.i thought it was pretty smart,seeing as to how both of us are now in the same boat when in comes to work. we realised that there are a lot of things that we are EXPECTED to know but the system keeps forgetting that we are neither trained nor familiar with their system.the perfect answer to the common sentence thrown at us "come to me if you don't know anything." in a system where no information is dessiminated and no guidance is offered to noobs,is "if you don't tell me what i have to know,i would not then know what i have to know and what i should know.and i would not know what i don't know."

ha.
