    A picture would solve that problem. ^_^

    Again, it's a lot easier to get a new job than it is to rise from the fucking dead.

    I don't give a shit if someone dies if it's going to result in severe troubles for me.

    And I don't give a shit that you might lose your job if I'm going to die waiting for the ambulance to find a space to park that's more convenient for you. And neither would you if you were the guy that needed the ambulance.

    It's not just losing my job, in my case it could mean deportation.

    He could take a picture with his phone as evidence.

    I don't give a shit about you maybe getting deported if I'm going to die waiting for the ambulance. And you wouldn't give a shit about your neighbour getting deported either in that situation.

    If they're going to fuck me over why would I care if they die?

    You should care because, if you were in the same situation, you'd want the paramedics to prioritize saving your life over finding a parking spot.

    Also, they are not "fucking you over". I would say it's your apparent asshole boss that's fucking you over. Or your inability to take a photo of the ambulance blocking your driveway as evidence. Your neighbour just wants to live.

    Unless the somewhere you had to be was also a dire matter of health, you'll survive, I'm sure wherever will understand. He can be annoyed all he wants though, he's just being unreasonable about it.

    No, I don't give a shit about the well-being of someone if I'm going to be fucked over.

    On another note, why is this in the wow general forum?

    Take a photo. If not, ask for a letter from the Ambulance service. I mean sometimes life happens, better your neighbour keeps his than your boss thinks you're telling porkies you can just prove later anyway. I'm not implying you necessarily are, but people can't be this self-absorbed can they?

    If you live in a place with no employment protection at all, then my sympathies. But I do distinctly remember you specifically in another thread saying even chronically disabled people should be able to find a job as long as they have the internet and a computer.

    I like how you cut out the part that clearly explains why you should care.

    It's just you saying your reasons why you think I should care.

    So are you saying you'd rather die than have the ambulance that could save your life temporarily block your neighbours driveway, potentially costing him his job and setting up a chain of events that might possibly lead to him being deported?

    Fuck if I know all the regulations or laws around it here in Singapore, I'm here working as a foreigner. If I lose my job, I lose my permit and have to go back home.

    I don't quite see what that has to do with this.
