Hi guys,
Is this possible scenerio in singapore when both papa mama doctors but son can't study end up selling hokkien mee....
Btw if you and your spouse are doctors but got a hawker son, will you feel ashamed>?
The hawker son may just earn more money than his parents maybe even start a franchise
i'll be proud if he cooks food people loves and is earning a living. if he is living righteously there's nothing to be ashamed of.
For me, I won't.
As long as he is doing a legal job ^^
Although just a hawker but you would never know maybe one day he will running a chain restaurant?

too bad the chiobu ang mo gal has already a big tummy with baby inside.
it's an honest way to earn a living...
no matter what he does, as long as the work is honest, and is happy with his life, who else should give a shit?
it's not the business of anyone else who do not know them and care even less for them...

A humble job is better than a crooked one.

And PHD driving taxi. Nothing wrong with that too, as long as it is a honest living.
As long as he/she love the job.

u cant compare him with his parents..they have their own life.

No. It is not possible for papa mama to have a son selling hokkien mee since its Singapore. It is only possible for the lawyer papa to be a politician and the son selling mee siam mai hum since its Singapore.

Oh, so now the taxi driver's grandson is hawker selling hokkien mee?
Why? Seems like TS put it that it is a shame to be a hawker. Hello, this is also a decent job, what is wrong to be a hawker? Hawkers don't go round, robbing, setting fire.
not all hawkers drive merc and live in condo, but quite a few of them do drive big cars and live in condo/private properties.
some hawkers really earned more than us working in office.
