Building Up


Dear Construction workers of Korea,

Just a few observations and suggestions from a concerned alien... Please STOP working so hard!!! You are at the building site every morning at 6am. And I do mean every morning. Saturday? Sunday?! Holidays?! Why must you interrupt our sleep at the crack of dawn? And why must you do it so loudly? Using bizarre machines that seem to just make the process take even longer rather than speeding it up? Also you may want to work on clearing all your materials out of the street. I see kids playing on the long metal pipes as you stand above them working on the second floor flinging nails down & I have to say, its quite scary!

My poor neighbors haven't been able to sleep in for weeks now - and you've barely got going! (Not to mention your new job has abruptly removed their view.) Although I will not miss the fish heads and their aromas pouring out of bags in the empty lot on my walk home from school everyday, I do wish you'd give yourselves (and the rest of us) a break once in a while! Oh, and just so you know, they invented measuring tape so that you could achieve correct measurements of things... starting it from a solid point and measuring to a piece of tape blowing in the wind does not constitute an ideal measurement!

Carry on!... Quietly...
