定義: A code-mixing term used by working class Hong Kongers who believe that rejecting people is more comfortable than being a “peaceful good person” because being the latter often leads to more work with the same salary.
用法: E.g. 識得 reject 嘅人，過得舒服過「隨和好人」好多 以前總係唔敢拒絕人，明明唔係自己範疇都照攬上身。最後發現：越好說話嘅人，工作量只會越來越多，人工就永遠原地踏步。學會定邊界，工作生活先有得救。(People who know how to reject, live much more comfortably than "easy-going good people". I used to always dare not reject people, despite the work not related to my job position. Then I finally realised: The better at talking a person is, the more the workload will become, and the salary will always be the same. So learn to set boundaries, so that work and life will be saved.)
