Too much demand

Human is a very bitchy species, you give them 10 cents, they ask for 1 dollar, you give them tiger prawn, they ask for abalone... the chinese got a proverb called "得寸进尺", which literally means give them an inch and they ask for a feet (measurement).

Lets start a story of company "M", it's a pioneer company, set in the peaceful Industrial Area, overseeing a tranquil river lake. Company initially subsidizing RM1.50 per meal but the employee complaint that the food sux (because these people previously had the luxury of choosing 8 different caterer, now it's down to 1 and they complain the food is monotonous and sux).

OK loh, management understand the plight, requested a reformation of caterer...

1 month later, a new caterer came in, it's from an established source and the food is 2 fold better than previous caterer. And yet employees complain that despite the good food, it's expensive and lack depth (whatever that means). Management listen to them, discussed with big big boss and reform the caterer again....

This time in the form of FREE food from morning till afternoon, all the way until the night. Give a special instruction to the caterer to serve only 'nutritious food'. It's by far the best food benefit in the region, and yet today, I heard this complaint...

"Aiyo, today I didn't finish my food... give so much to eat, sure will get fat 1 lahh, die loh, will die of diabetes and heart disease loh..."
"This Marigold juice drink no good 1, less vitamins compare to xxx...."

I don't know really how is it to feed human and to make them happy, if so bad then just go OUT and eat lah, yet these bunch of stingy kiasu people eat EVERYDAY inside the cafeteria, and they won't stop complaining....

How lah you tell me?
