Employer VS employee

In below article, capitalist, employer and entrepreneur are use interchangeably.


Capitalist put their money on stake, searching for the maximum return. Their money at stake may be loss entirely, even face bankruptcy. Their venture may prove successful and earn enormously. But according to statistic, 1 in 10 venture will survive, much lesser for the successful venture. Out of the successful one, most are started by seasonal experience entrepreneur.

That is why most of us are employee, not employer. That is why most of us choose to save money in fixed deposit because most of us want safety life and avoid risk. We are trained in our education (Malaysia) to become a good employee. Yet we always complain about the unfairness of employer and employee, complaining employee are doing most of the work and getting all the blame, while boss (entrepreneur) driving Mercedes benz, BMW, getting high paid, and seems relax. We complain about the unfairness treatment by government between the rich (successful entrepreneur) and the middle and low income people (employee).

Government likes entrepreneur because they create jobs, bring tax revenue to government, help boasting economy. Without them, we don't even have job. And entrepreneur is not relax, a lot of entrepreneur has heart problem because of the high pressure to sustain their business. They need to make sure the company continue to earn income, or they will lose money, or even bankrupt. They have to pay employee salary even though the company turn into losses because of bad economy or difficult time in company. They build the company, setup "high antenna" to sense any headwind that might affect the company business, always think of how to do thing the better way so that the company will not get obsolete. For them, all is about money, how to get the best use of money, how to increase productivity of their employee with the lowest possible pay, etc.

For employee, we need to appreciate because we don't have to worry too much about our month end salary pay. If you are still not happy, and if you think it's easy to replace your employer, please take out money to start your own company. if you are not willing to risk your money, please don't complain too much. If your salary is comparably low, you always have the chance to go to other company. Remember, this is a competitive world, you will be paid what you got: the talent you got and the gut you got.
