    we are not slave to time and we don't measure our work with the amount of money we are being paid for..we simply do our best.

    Filipinos are jolly, generally happy and hospitable (sometimes overly hospitable). Filipinos are very resillient and are over achievers in other countries.

    [QUOTE=Radical: Filipinos are very resillient and are over achievers in other countries.[/QUOTE]

    I couldn't agree with you more. I was an OFW (accountant) for more
    than 10 years in the Middle East and dito ko talaga nakita ang inate
    abilidad ng Pinoy.
    Kasi iba-iba kaming lahi (British, Egyptian, Pakistani, Sri-Lankan,
    Thai, Indian, etc.) sa office and I can tell you from first-hand
    experience that kaming mga Filipinos dominated them all!
    Yung mga British and Egyptian occupied managerial positions
    pero sa Pinoy sila umaasa sa office work. Mga Indian magaling sa
    English and maporma pero mostly tamad. Ayaw mag-overtime!
    Mga Thai matalino sana and masipag (good in the technical stuff and
    computers) kaya lang bobo sa English!
    Mga Sri-Lankan and Pakitani forget it! Hindi pwede iwan sa
    trabaho kailangan pirmi kang nakaalalay!
    Ang Pinoy minsan mo lang turuan sa trabaho after that pwede
    mo nang iwan. Not only that ang average Pinoy worker is good
    in spoken and written office communication.
    Would you believe yung mga boss namin na British sa amin pa
    nagpapagawa ng mga inter-office memo!
    Halos kami na ngang mga Pinoy ang nagpapatakbo ng office!
    Thats why I'm proud to be Pinoy because I have seen and
    experieced first-hand that they can compete and even excel when
    placed side-by-side with other nationalities.

    Resilience . . My previous american boss told me na when he travelled even on remote places, he will see filipinos working.

    I was once in Kunshan China on a business trip 6 yrs ago , walang nag eenglish even sa shopping mall unless your in a 4 or 5 star hotel, pinoys still work there as technicians and operators in an electronics factory, they told me they are working there for > 5 yrs back then . . Kulang talaga opportunity sa pinas.

    I don't see it as "kulang" - mataas masyado minimum wages natin kaya a lot of companies left

    I think mas mataas pa din sa neighboring countries ang minimum like taiwan and malaysia. China labor is no longer low cost too, my company have a site there.

    Hindi ba isa sa problema ay pag naging member sa union sa pinas.

    China - labor (and copst of living) sa big cities are expensive. pero sa country side nila mas mababa ng malayo. ang maganda sa kanila, pati yung taga province will need approval to move to the big city. unlike sa atin na bus lang ang katapat.

    Malaysia is a different story since they have Petronas to support them

    let's reframe it

    kunwari you're abroad and someone asks you where you're from and you say the Philippines...

    ano reaction nila

    "your president duterte is a killer"

    ganito

    pag may resto or pop up store na american brand first time dito sa pinas madami pumipila

    it's status signaling

    they're signaling nakapunta sila sa states at nakakain sila diyan

    I think majority ng pumipila never pa nakakain there. It doesn't make sense to line up sa Pilipinas kung makakain ka naman sa US na walang pila.

    Also, they are giving the wrong signal lining up for hours to eat fast food

    is this fact,
    or is this someone's opinion?

    the only time i heard someone pride themselves over a fastfood, was in the movie "escape from new york".
    taco bell.
    heh heh.
