Sweldo day for Makati Senior Citizens

Napadaan ako sa Barangay Hall kaninang umaga at napansin ko na ang haba haba ng pila tapos may sumisigaw ng mga numbers. Nakausap ko tuloy ng wala sa oras si Manong Pedicab.

Ako: Manong, ano po yun, bakit madaming matatanda at saka ano yun tinatawag na numbers?
Manong Pedicab: Ah yun ba, sweldo ngayon ng mga senior citizens. Binibigyan sila 1000 pesos.
Ako: 1000 pesos wow naman! Para na din silang pensionado ng gobyerno!
Pedicab: Oo, 3 beses sa isang taon sila kung makatangap. Tuwing ika-apat na buwan. Pero makati lang ang gumagawa nun.
Ako: Sana sa ibang municipalities din meron din nyan...

Bukod sa 1000 pesos na natatanggap nila, meron pa silang cake tuwing birthday or wedding anniversaries, P3,000 burial assistance at libreng sine! O san ka pa!

At least naman sa haba ng panahon ng pinagtrabaho nila, naranasan din nilang ma-enjoy ang tax na nakaltas sa kanila.
