System is much often dead,people can still be flexible and often can try to work things around if one met any obstacle. The situation dont change,i change. I dont change,the situation must change. 1+1 doesnt always have to be 2. Overly reliant on technology or towards a fix piece of system regulation can sometime become a stumbling block for a person's mind to think.
I often tells my boss who is a Malaysian,in malaysia,they can use 6 men to carry one pail of water (by hands) but in Sillypore,1 man have to carry 6 pails of water (investing in trolley). Thats for efficiency.
They are running on family business style. There are good,there are bad in every system. Family business style keeps hardworking and loyal workers regardless if they were productive enough. Modern business style,you arent productive enough,you are out of the team. They keep moving forward,but no one's really loyal there,some doesnt even have minimum hardworking workers.

- "Sorry, we sell only ham and cheese"
- "Don't worry, I pay the same price. Just remove the ham and I take it with the cheese"
- "Sorry, it's not possible, we sell only sandwiches with ham and cheese"
At this point, my friend was furious with that stubborn lady.
- "OK GIVE ME YOUR SANDWICH AS IT IS"
The lady smiled all satisfied, proud and happy that the odd tourist accepted the house rules.
Then my friend took the sandwich with ham and cheese, paid the bill, opened the sandwich, removed the ham, left it on the desk under the shocked eyes of the lady, and left the place with his sandwich with just cheese.
Wonderful example of fantasy against rigid rules.

This illustration from another angle of view also tells me,not everyone knows how to take the ham out of the sandwich. Most would probably just walk off and go look around other stores selling sandwiches with ONLY cheese which he is unlikely to find.
It still takes a person to 1st understand how that sandwich he/she ordered with ham looks like in that cafe in order to be able take the ham out of the sandwich in one simple stroke and in one piece. If it looks like one that has been cut into 6 to 8 pieces for easier consumption,the buyer might not want to make the choice to separate the ham out of the sandwich afterall. If he does,he is likely to have a little harder time doing that.
What i am implying is,knowing and understanding the 'game' is important too.
Just like when one didnt know that formosa hotel's membership can be transferable,he wouldnt have guess that i could actually leave behind my silver card at the reception for my other friends staying there (when i am not physically there) gets the 15% off King Massage and the food they ordered from the hotel.
