MANILA, Philippines—The proposal of the Department of Foreign Affairs to subject all departing overseas Filipino workers to psychiatric tests drew flak from a militant migrant group, which said the government move “essentially typecasts OFWs as lunatics.”
Migrante International said it should be the DFA officials, not the OFWs, “who should have their heads examined if they really believe mandatory psychiatric tests could help prevent OFWs from snapping in the workplace.”
Hmmmmm.... lead by example. Employees of DFA should take the psychiatric exam before being employed - there are a lot of crazies in the DFA! Migrante says its the working conditions that make them crazy... true enough, I remember a friend who worked in the Consular Division, she works with passport applicants, she said she gets crazy with the people... that at one point, she was so annoyed she cut her hair in the bathroom.. wala lang .. (just nothing!)
