I recently had a conversation with a friend of mine who asked me about my job in Ernst & Young.

Friend: So, what is it that you do in your office?
Me: Well, I’m in the tax department where we actually help our clients and advise them on
how to handle their tax problems by calculating and minimizing the amount that they are
required to pay to the government.
Friend: You help people to evade tax?
Me: No. We prefer the word avoid tax. Evading tax is a crime. Avoiding is not.
Friend: Ok, so what do you do in your department?
Me: I assist my seniors in obtaining and reproducing valuable information from data sheets
submitted by our clients and to ensure that the information provided is clear, relevant and
unharmed in any way.
Friend: Wow. So what exactly do you do?
Me: I do photostating work.

Cha tou.

K.U.L.I – the Kritically Ucclaimed exempLary employ-I of the month

In upholding our fine traditions of awarding incredible (lacking credibility) awards to outstanding recipients, Critically Acclaimed is proud to honor one such outstanding intern from the payrolls of Earnst & Young.

For upholding the good image of the Company (even when he is fully aware of the illegality of tax evasion),

For taking great pride in the tasks afforded to him (no matter how menial and insignificant they may seem),

And most of all, for continually striving for excellence (even when underpaid, unappreciated and overworked),

We are proud to award Daniel Khoo Boon Swee, K.U.L.I of the month!

Congratulations, Daniel. May you continue to find satisfaction in this job you so greatly excel at for as long as you remain bodily able…
