Semalam sia masuk kerja balik selepas cuti 'Chinese New Year' selama 4 hari. Ramai lagi staff lain yang masih cuti, so ofis pun tidak la sibuk sangat. Sedang sia check² email tiba-tiba datang satu 'amoi' dari HRD (Human Resource Dept).. Dia bilang, "nah, ini angpow dari company".Wah, itu amoi bagi wa angpow wo!! Hoyee..hoyee..wa lapat angpow wo!! Gong Xi..Gong Xi!! Hoyee..Hoyee.. (Maka RM10 saja pun..wakakakaka)
"When giving money on festive or auspicious occasions, never put money in a white envelope or you would face the anger of the recipient! Money wrapped in white envelopes is given when the occasion is sad, like during funerals, when a gift of money is given to help with the funeral costs. This is called 'Pak Kum' money for the family of the departed. So if you ever come across a Chinese client please think twice about giving him or her their fee in a white envelope although in our western countries it would be unlikely to offend. "
