Sembang Kami - Bayar Gaji Kerja Sendiri

Assalamualaikum,

Wanita biasa macam kita-kita semua setiap hari ada sahaja tugas tetap menunggu untuk dibereskan.  Tugas tetap ini tidak pernah habis, celik sahaja mata sudah ada tugas menunggu.  Hendak kejam mata waktu malam pun ada tugas juga.  Mak Long sudah pencen bertahun tidak payah kerja pun masih ada tugas tetap.  Itulah kerjaya Mak Long ni jadi surirumah.

Hari ini jadual bersihkan rumah.  


Pak Long:   You work too hard my dear...

Mak Long:   My job!

Pak Long:   You need to pay yourself for the hard work!

Mak Long:   Huh!  What do you mean?

Pak Long:    Get your pay and treat something nice for yourself.

Wah!! .... boleh bayar gaji kerja sendiri ekk!  Ok... bagus juga.  Berapa ekk!  Lawaknya orang rumah Mak Long nih!

Mak Long:    How much do you think I should get paid?

Pak Long:     Whatever amount you want!

Wah ini sudah baguslah.   Lebar senyuman isteri dari telinga kanan hingga ke telinga kiri.  Benarnya dalam usia lewat sebegini sebahagian besar keinginan duniawi sudah banyak mengundur diri.  Alhamdulillah syukurlah apa yang sudah dikurnia Nya...  mencukukupi bagi orang tua ini.

  1. Betul juga kan? Di hujung-hujung usia ini, dapat menghadiahkan 'kerehatan' pada diri sendiri pun rasa bersyukur...

    1. Ya benar Kakcik. Telahan sememangnya di saat usia begini memerlukan kerehatan. Kerja sedikit, penatnya yang lebih hihihi.

  2. As Salam Mak Long
    Pak Long is progressive in his thinking. Not just that. Pak Long is also generous. Housewives have long been short-changed. For all practical purposes housewives do contribute but their contributions are not accounted for. It should in terms of the country's productivity at least if not being personally rewarded as suggested by Pak Long. So how's the going Ma'am? The year is slowly coming to a close. Regards to you and Pak Long!

    1. Waalaikumsalam Hank. Thank you for putting good words for Pak Long. He is a good, loving, generous and wonderful husband a woman could asked for.... and I am very “bersyukur” to Allah. We are doing just fine, Alhamdulillah and thank you for asking. We are hoping to go for a short trip somewhere in the mountains to see the fall foliage season probably in two weeks time.

      How about you Hank? Hope that you are doing good.

      Regards to you

      Mak Long
