To think that this type of mentality still exists in our developed world whereby some people of high ranking (supposedly) are selective about the persons who can speak to them.
If you are from a lower social class or if you are situated lower on the corporate ladder, you cannot address people who are at the top of the hierarchy because they look down on you like vulgar insects from where they stand. What's so different between them and us ?!! Aren't they made of flesh & blood as well just like any other humans...'I'm not necessarily asking them to treat everyone as equals but at least show some respect to someone who is an equal to you in species, right!!' I mean you are still human you know !? You're not a god !! Even God treats humans better than humans treat each other...for Pete's sake !!
You can even get severely scolded for even taking the initiative to speak to someone from that supposedly high level to request something. Is this really the 21st century?! Where is the freedom of speech!? Can't you even voice out your opinion when you're not even being insulting or sarcastic with your words?!
Is this some kind of K-drama in which the rich Chaebols look down on the middle class or lower class people. What's so great about them that they think so highly of themselves and even get you into troubles because you just spoke to them. A person victim to that type of treatment would feel greatly betrayed by that unfairness inflicted upon them by their own people.
No matter how hard you work to do your best, people always find ways to bring you down with their remarks and criticisms. People just don't realize how hard you have been working and what you have to put up with to achieve certain goals. On the other hand, you might also be inflicting the same unfairness to your peers but you have no choice due to the social pressure or work pressure. When you think about it, pressure & stress is just something created by humans and inflicted by humans on each other...
I guess all this brings us to think that people should just stop interacting with each other and just do their own thing & live their own life like Robinson Crusoe. But if you do that, you might just end up lonely and depressed as well. Either ways you'll end up hurt. Life is just so complicated. Even little insignificant things / happenings can be turned into such huge issues / scandals when they don't really matter much or cause any harm in the first place.
It is after all humans who created Apartheid (which reminds you of Nelson Mandela's sacrifice
for freedom).

It is humans who created racism.
It is humans who created social hierarchy.
For animals it's just the survival of the fittest.
All this brings us to the conclusion that unfairness / injustice will always exist in the world (even among animals).
You can never escape from unfairness unless you are that lucky person who never suffered any injustice in their whole life.
I guess it's enough now, I should stop venting out my annoyance in this blog because it can be seen as really gloomy and pessimist by my viewers.
Thank you for reading. This is just an insight on how bad my day was today.
Lets keep on living to find happiness.
I'm feeling really sleepy right now and I've ranted enough for today, so lets just take a break from this hell of a living day.
Ciao
Alice
