Irresponsible, F*cked-up, Malaysian...

CONTRACTORS.

Specifically, those Class-F ones who are usually tasked with repairing roads, changing light-bulbs, etc.

Why?

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, there was a Class-F contractor simply known as Eff-U. Now, Eff-U's "expertise" was changing light-bulbs of street lamps along major roads. So, one day, he was given a contract to change light-bulbs along a major highway. As soon as the contract was signed, Eff-U sent his men out to complete the task. Little did he know what would happen that day...

You see, Eff-U, in all his wisdom and idiocy, did not tell his workers that they would be working at a busy highway, the kind where 40-foot trailers, cars and speed-o-bikes were known to travel at speeds exceeding 300km/hr. Nor did he even bother to purchase warning signs or the like. Relying instead, on his "past record" of successful light-bulb changes. The workers, upon arriving at the site, decided that it would be too much hard work to go back and pester their boss to buy sign boards. Besides, they've done things like this before. So they drew lots to decide who would "redirect" traffic using a simple red flag and striped plastic cones. Mind you, they weren't even equipped with power armour or whatever, just plain cloth armour.

I'll now leave the rest to your own imagination.
*Hint: lots of blood, gore, and body parts strewn all over the place.

The End.

In some ways, Malaysians are stupid. I think the "cari makan" mentality has made us a nation of idiots, infecting each one with the notion that putting food on the table is all that matters, regardless of how it is done. The "bosses" don't seem to care about the safety of their workers, nor do the workers seem to have any common sense at all. What matters, is money. As long as there's money, it's ok, it can be done.

"Aiyah, no money, no talk-mah! We vote BN because mau cali-makan-mah! If we don't vote, they don't give us anything, how? Don't be so stoopid. Why find tlouble? If you ale lich, then all oso boleh-mah! Malaysia Boleh-mah!"

...well, f*ck you!

Note: the above story was exaggerated to make a point. Just one simple point: place warning signs BEFORE any maintenance works, not AT. And no, the blood, gore and body parts are just your own imagination.
