/ WORRIED



I just learned that my brother in Japan had an accident while working. According to his wife, he and a co-worker was in the middle of moving some iron bars with very sharp edges. He got a cut on his wrist, no news yet on how deep that was, but it has caused him to not able to come to work for at least two days.


This kind of news really makes me sad. As in really really sad. To think that he does not have family there. But then, I am thankful because I heard that his co-workers which are also Filipinos are okay, they are like a small family there. It was only today that I learned that his job is really hard. The pay is relatively lower for others working there, plus the work itself is physically exhausting. He is doing a lot of lifting most of the time, and hazard is really high.


I only wish that this is the last instance of accident that would happen to him in Japan. I hope he find a better job in that country, a safer one, as soon as possible.
