The effects of the Scottish Referendum

It's Monday 15th September, a few days away from the voting day that decides if Scotland remains in the UK or go it alone.

There are many backing both sides with all sorts of reasons. I think most of them remain ignorant of the most important factors for a successful independence.

Economy and Infrastructure.

Friends and family (at least some) are at each another's throats. This issue has caused more arguments than good causes for the country of Scotland.

I will let you know my vote...it is a NO to independence based on a few things.

1) Scotland's main sources of income is dominated by revenue from the North Sea Oil...Whisky export...and taxation of All Working People.

There are other factors too but isn't large enough to be significant.

North Sea Oil WILL run out...revenue will then cease.

Whisky export will continue long after the Oil but it ain't going to be sufficient.

Taxation of the working...50% of entire Scottish population can't possibly contribute enough tax to feed the elderly, disabled, ones on benefits/welfare AND themselves. You can't spend £/$10 as if it was a £/$20. Simple math really...

2) The infrastructure DOESN'T even exist! If Scotland is to go solo...where is the tax system that will take the place of the UK one? Where is the Scottish equivalent of the DVLA who sorts out car tax and registration? Where or who is going to fund the MASSIVELY in debt NHS? The working people that's who!

3) There's talks of using the Pound Sterling as currency...flip sake!!! You may as well NOT be independent if you still want to keep that!

Or

A new currency...Scottish Pound or something like that...ok...WHAT will it be backed by? Scotland...we have no gold reserves...no silver...no commodities to back a new currency with! As for Oil...probably won't be enough to trade with...

These are only 3 of the most thought about factors...for myself...plenty more from where it came from.

Alex Salmond, you sir haven't thought this out AT ALL, NOTHING IS IN PLACE!
I'm a Chinese who was born and raised in Scotland...I love Scotland too much to let you screw her up the arse.

Scotland CAN be independent but not under your pathetic...unorganised way of doing things. Until my 3 concerning factors are answered to a highly satisfactory degree...you ain't getting my vote.

NOW FUCK OFF!!!!

Well... It's been a few years since my last update, and quite a bit has transpired. Since January 2020, our journey has seen the national lockdown in March/April 2020, during which Maki and Ramen held strong. In 2021, Maki and Ramen secured a prime spot in the new St. James Quarters, with yours truly being crowned Branch Manager of that flagship establishment. I put in the hard yards, but there were some twists and turns. My employer, Teddy, scheduled two events specifically on my days off, both with a hefty 50% discount. This turned my peaceful days into utter chaos for my staff. The audacity was that Teddy tried to pin the disarray on my supposed lack of organization. Fortunately, I'm not one to shy away from transparency. My work orders from the higher-ups were an open book, with both the Head of Kitchen and Head of Sushi in the WhatsApp group chats, privy to all the event planning for my branch. While we knew an event was on the horizon, the specifics were conspicuously abs...

Just ranting!

WHO THE HELL GAVE THAT WOMAN THE "BIRTH RIGHT" TO HAVE ME TAXI HER AROUND AND EXPECT ME TO JUST AGREE?!?!?! SCREW YOU TO HELL AND TO THE NEW AREA WHERE THEY ARE MAKING IT ESPECIALLY FOR YOU YOU STUPID VA***A COW!!!! OK that had to come out, here's the story, throughout this week so far, my employer's wife who is looking after the work place in his absence has used a Chinese curse word on me several times. This curse word itself curses you to basically trip over and bust your face. It sounds lame translated into English but if you are Chinese and know which word I am referring to, then you know my anger, I can take it as a joke every once in a while but when you use that consistently,  you are testing my patients on how long I can withhold from punching that face of yours! So, its 12:46am now in UK, just over 2 hours ago, I was finishing up at work, Lisa (Boss' wife) comes strolling along and says "Hakuren, you busy tomorrow morning? I need a life up t...

Sleepless...

The past few nights has been horrendous for my sleep...mother needs to book flights, she seems unable to get the flights that suits her...,relatives visiting late (i mean after 12am late, while I must be up at 7am latest)... and their constant chatter, with the occasional laughter wake me from my almost deep sleep stage! Yet they always tell me to be more considerate to those who sleep for they have work the next day... At least I've got a night out planned, that's something to look forward to as well as a couple of drinks and meeting new people! Viva Le Weekend!!!
