UN egos

I do think some of these UN pple think too highly of themselves... They are given a daily allowance to spend at a UN meeting/ event but they refuse to pay for anything and want to charge everything to the master bill. So wat is their allowance used for?? To fatten their own pockets?? Is that where our donations are going to? Their own pockets??? I thought they were a non-profit organisation?? So what is this profitting of oneself? Perhaps their systems works in that organisation cannot, but individuals can.

I suppose I should not look a gift horse in the mouth, but I can understand why some people will question why they can spend this kind of money when they are a non-profit organisation. Every cent counts in this case isn't it?

And then you would think that as a humanitarian group, they would be a little more humane and understanding of other cultures. The way they speak down to the staff here cos their English is not as perfect as theirs... disillusioned man. And the way the speak, "I have been to many countries, stayed in many luxury hotels blah blah and none of them have charged me a cancellation charge." right, so now UN pays you enough to stay in luxury hotels huh? And that hotel policies are not applicable to you because you are...UN?

I am not against the instituion/organisation as they do offer a lot of help and I know the idiom about one rotten apple in the barrel and should not assume that all are equally lousy, but I think too much hype is given to them. They used to be so WOW to me, but now meeting their representatives face to face, I'm disappointed. I want to help kids, but now I really really want to know where my donated money goes to, to the children or to these arrogant, pompous representatives who apparently think they are above everyone else and above every rules.
