Sikap Orang German yang Orang Malaysia Patut Contohi

              saya sangat wonder kenapa orang German has a very good attitude?sangat baik. sangat berdispilin. and i see a lof of good things in German people that we should emulate. didikan awal barangkali that turned them to be  a good person? ok we discuss about that later. now, mempersembahkan list of attitude orang German yang awesome yang patut kita contohi:

1) orang German sangat precise, tepat dan jitu when it comes to TIME. 

         - dialog berbunyi seperti ini: "Wani, you need to take the bus number 293 to get you to the office. here in Germany you can plan your schedule because the bus will follow the time exactly as written in the bus timetable." (yang ditampal di tiang), said my colleague. "oh please don't lie, if it shows 7.04 am, the bus will not be here 704 sharp right? (dengan nada yang agak sombong sambil terbayang situasi di Malaysia), said Wani innocently. my collleague smiles and said "you will know it tomorrow", atau dalam kata lainnya (tak percaya lantak kau lah wani, ada aku kesah??). 

    the next day and the day after, and until today (Day 15 in Germany), my colleague said it right!. kalau  jadual bas tu tulis pukul 7.04, memang bus akan sampai sharp 7.04 ok!!!!! sangat2 jarang dia datang 7.03 or 7.05. giler ah aku sangat impressed with the German Precision.

      - oh disebabkan German Precision ini, if one day you are late, and you are running fast, trying to catch the bus and there you are, knocking the bus door dengan muka kesian (dengan harapan pintu akan terbuka), you are wrong. 

the driver will not open the door for you even you are just a milisecond late! walaupun muka kau dah terpampang depan bas, tinggal tunggu dia bukakkan je. this is because the bus drivers do not want to be late and thus not following the German precision. "time and tide wait for no man" memang harus dipraktikkan di sini ye adik-adik.

2) orang German sangat berbudi bahasa di mana sahaja mereka berada.

         - first situation that i experienced with the politeness of the Germans are at the shopping mall or supermarket. you are queuing at the kasse (bahasa inggerisnya ialah cashier counter) to pay for your goods and when your turn comes, the cashier will always greet you (in German of course). kau faham ke, tak faham ke dia tak peduli ye. janji dia greet with a sweetest smile in the world and said "hello, wie getse ihre?". (ok nasib baik yang ni aku faham). 

         - second situation that takes place is in the bus. it was a monday morning where the bus i took is crowded with so many people and there is no seats available. the bus stopped at one station and there was a pregnant lady coming in. guess who is offering her a seat? jengjengjeng... a guy with a punk hair and he has tattoos on all over his arms! sounds unbelievable? believe it baybeh...

baby with punk hair adalah sangat comelness!

                    i remember reading stories from  hannah's blog, that she is travelling with bus everyday to work and still taking a bus until her pregnancy reached 9months!! i am really impressed with you, Hannah Johary! anda memang wanita cekal! 

now, please imagine the situation when you are finished with a very hard day at work, you are waiting for the bus like forever (how i wish Malaysian Precision is implemented here), and when you get into the bus, you are not being offered a seat and you were standing like hours in the bus! kemon, doncha see my huge belly and my swollen feet, holding this stupid bag and stupid umbrella? (aik,beg dengan payung tersebut tak bersalah kott? kesian mereka digelar stupid). tolong kesian sikit kat perempuan mengandung boleh tak???!!!@@@!!! dahla we have this morning sickness like crazy, tu belum masuk cerita Hyperemesis Gravida (severe nausea and severe vomitting during pregnancy). and you think we can rest like a queen at home even we are carrying a 3kilos baby inside us??? ha? boleh fikir takk???!! boleh ke tak???!!!!

            

 ok, next situation that takes place was at the supermarket. now imagine this in your brilliant head please: You go to tesco to do a monthly groceries shop. you must go to tesco because there is the only place that has a lot of entertainment for the kids- it's their playland! (tesco please bayar royalti dekat saya sekarang). 

then you go to one alley to another. you take diaper, milk, detergent and so on for a one month stock. kemudian kau turut hawa nafsu kau untuk membeli aiskrim, chocolates, junk foods and instant maggi mee. 

you put everything in the trolley sambil buat calculation in your head. sebab tu awal2 saya mention brilliant head kerana perlu jadi brilliant to do a mathematical calculation here.

 then you have left the dry food area and now entering to the cold area where they put juices, yoghurts, nuggets. tiba2 kau rasa tak jadi beli maggi mee because tetiba rasa macam makan megi is bad for your health. will you go back to the dry area, return the maggi mee back to it's original place? or you will just leave it in the place where you stand? 

pernah nampak tak satu rack yoghurt tetiba tersesat ada a pack of maggi mee kat situ? itu nama dia pemalas. saya juga sometimes tidak ketinggalan untuk bersikap begitu ye. ish teruk betul.. but for the Germans, they will not do that! i saw it in front of my eyes, they will returned it back to where it  belongs. bagus kan?

  

3) orang German mengamalkan gaya hidup sihat.

      -  you know how do they go to work?  = cycling and walking.      

     - you know what they have for breakfast? = salads, juices, fruits, oats.

      - you know what is their activity in the weekend? = jogging, gardening, bring kids to playground. (playground kat German tak macam kat Malaysia yg penuh dengan vandalisme. playground in Germany ada swimming pool ok)

4) orang German sangat strict to the rules.

             - they practice "reduce-reuse-recycle" in their day to day life. every house has their 4 recycle bins and they put garbage according to the categories. memang ikut betul2, kalau plastik masuk dalam plastic bin. 

i have it also in my apartment where i stay, tapi aku bantai je bubuh semua sampah tak kiralah plastik ke ,paper ke, bottles ke, left over food ke, masuk dalam satu tong sahaja. hahah agak pemalas di situ. sorry ye majlis perbandaran erlangen...

           - for working ethic, they have an akta says , "every employee is not allowed to come to work on public holidays". (kalau kat Malaysia dapat triple pay kalau kerja public holiday kan?) second rule says " no employee is allowed to work more than 10 hours per day" (kalau kat Malaysia, lebih 12jam pun ada orang kerja sebab nak kejar OT punya pasal). third rule says "employee is not allowed to work alone under any circumstances".(kalau kat Malaysia, aku selalu jugak kerja sorang2 dalam office).

sedar tak kenapa such rules are being implemented in Germany? reason is because they want us, parents to have more time with the family. supaya anak2 tak terabai.

5) orang German sangat berterus terang.

          

            - when they say No, they mean it. when they say Yes, they mean it. takde selindung2 ye. tak macam kita kan orang melayu sangat pandai menjaga hati. we, malaysians are very hard to say NO. sebab tu kot one of the main reasons why most malay couples are divorced because they are not being honest, communication-failure. sebab apa? sebab tak berterus terang, nak jaga hati, so pendam, lama2 meletup.

    i think thats all for now. oh, of course there also bad things about them that i wish i can fly to Malaysia right here, right now, tapi kita tulis yang baik2 jelah kan. tiru yang mana elok ler ye dak.

waktu di Malaysia sekarang : 1.59 am.

waku di Germany sekarang: 7.59 pm.
