2/11

Had a hair cut today.

Going to my dad's business banquet today.
It's called Weiya.
Companies treat their worker for a dinner, and is being hosted at the end of the year.
My grandma told me that base on tradition, by attending the banquet, the workers will find out whether if they will be hired again next year.
Usually a whole chicken will be service on the table. The chicken will be chopped up and displayed with chicken wings, legs and head. If the chicken head is facing your direction, that means you will not come back to work next year.
It's a pretty indirect yet direct way of firing people.
But in modern day, people don't do it anymore.
