...I was very surprised by how many people stopped to offer me a ride to town...very very surprised!...
Well I won't be surprise drivers offer to pick you up: :bsmilie:
I did have an old auntie in like a 56 Pontiac try to pick me up one day...:sweat: She was probably after my camera! haha :bsmilie: I think I will try to go find those snaps just to prove it to you! lol
Will all due respect bro I can understand your point and there is a grain of truth to what you say but even "very rare" is very far from the truth and "almost extinct" is preposterous IMHO.
Not a nice thing to do, making general and sweeping statements like this. Maybe you should visit America before making such statements. Many people there bust their butts working 2 or even 3 jobs just so they can put food on the table.
Not quite. You said "this kind of people in USA...." and that makes it a sweeping statement. Nowhere did you mention it was worldwide.I know many people, who work 20 hours per day in SG. I believe that there are hardworking people in USA, who may also work 20 hours per day. However, how many of these hardworking people will walk 21 miles a day to get to work ? You don't get pay for walking Most hardworking people, work long hours to get more OT pay to put food on the table, not walk long distance to work. Therefore, I said this KIND of hardworking people is very rare.

My last job before I "retired" to do photogrpahy fulltime was with a printing plant. Every morning I walked to the station in Dulwich Hill to catch a train to Redfern. From Redfern I hopped on another train to Straitfield and from there I changed to a bus. After a 30 minutes ride I got down to walk 15 minutes to the plant. There were cold windy days, raining days, days with hot winds, bus no come days, etc. I think I lasted about a year before I called it quit. I am now poor but at least I'm happy. Today I got to spend three and half hours shooting a German girl from Hamburg and after that had a late lunch with her while she previewing the photos. She has a beautiful tan and a beautiful English accent. This is the last shot while she towelled herself dry from the bathtub shoot she still posed for me. It's a Si Peh tough life but someone has to do it.
You sir have a harsh life.
