Sim Kwang Yang

First of all, did any of your many advisers try to stop you from unleashing tear gas on those demonstrators? No?

Difference: Between White and Blue Collar

A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of BMW Car when he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car.

The mechanic shouted across the garage, ? Hello Doctor!! Please come over here for a minute."

The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic.

The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively, "So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind "em, put in new parts, and when I finish this will work as a new one. So how come you get the big money, when you and me are doingbasically the same work? " .

The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic......
