So after integrating into Vietnamese and Canadian workforces and lifestyles, I am the 5000% complainer.
So the immigrants that bother me and the Canadians that bother me are whatever.
They complain, they bother while Vietnamese like Son (Erikson) Nguyen is working and having a family for himself?
Finally figured it out that there are different people and different perspectives that can coexist in this world.
…
If you get annoyed, simply you maybe just a Canadian that the immigrants and Canadians deem you nothing and a bothersome.
So yes, I got to move where I am unbothered and I exist like another person.
…
So in 2019-2020, I was living in Scarborough.
Was that home?
Good question.
I felt comfortable there with the people and places but the problem was the work. I was studying 24/7/365 in health care.
Was I going to be an all day snot wiper while shopping for dim sum daily at the Asian supermarket?
Hard to justify living in Scarborough or anywhere in Canada to be a snot wiper while eating dim sum when I can be in Vietnam repairing cell phones or selling microwaves with excellent weather and good fresh food ???
I like repairing stuff.
…
After talking to Erikson, you realize people are the problem and not you.
…
My generation is the 2nd generation, we lived externally like Canadians. But some people don’t like that. The frequency here is to live externally.
I guess it bothers me and them so much I got to move.
