this little piggy went to the office

HY has 15+ days of holiday left till the end of this year, and he's grumpy about it. If I tell my working homies they will shake their heads in disbelief. Asian companies have the talent of making their employees feel guilty for taking holidays. They train you to work like machines 24/7, and then you loathe the idea of relaxation. I hope to work someday, but at the present stage I have a bloody long dissertation to write, and that thought is put till later. I can do anything I want and earn lots of money afterwards, that's what they tell me. Now it's difficult to judge the value of this degree though, what you can do is believe that it is very, very worthwhile--for what else motivates you to study in libraries during the weekends? But it's not hard to analyse my pig drawing actually, anyone can tell I wouldn't mind wearing a tie.
