Failed to see the bigger picture!

Every time in the library, never fail to notice that The Straits Times Classified recruitment section is always the most popular. Can't blame it as the unemployment rate remains at a relatively high level. Why spend 80 cents on the paper everyday while they can get the required information for free in the library!

Another observation is that many thrifty ones copy whatever they need on a piece of paper and head home with a hope.Some actually took out their mobile and called up to enquiry the job on the spot. The call duration is more than 3 minutes per call and more than 3 calls per time.

The Straits Times costs 80 cents while 3 calls with 3 minute duration each adds up to be more than 80 cents.

So why don't they go buy the paper and do the calling at home!
