Sometimes people needs to realized extra though not given / getting berserkly in amount or content, would still be appreciative with some form of gratitude in return. Like this time around, we people get something least expect for no apparent reason.
I mean, no additional responsibilities, no additional roles and no extra effort and time has been taken to undertake anything while minding our own business with our daily job, and here you go, some extras. Think about it. When things at the front isn't that all rosy and the entire battalion is still fighting a battle we don't know if it is a sure win or otherwise, it is great. A momentous struggle to survive this vicious downturn which took longer than expected to recuperate and yet this effort to give something, is to me, something great.
I am disappointed (though I am passing no judgment) that people fail to appreciate such extras. Be it mere amount. This is out of nowhere. IF only those people realize it. The decision could have been not to allow a single cent of flow. There was a choice but the decision was that to remunerate 'something' at least for the palate, so to speak.
And I hear people say it's merely anything or it's much lesser then the 'ought' to be getting (and they don't even know IF they would be getting, ironic). Honestly, I think people needs to look at a bigger picture and embrace a wholesome attitude towards life. Not just about the things we do to make a living. But to appreciate people's thought. At least. Give people's thought some honor. That is actually worth more than any penny...
