2020 Too big to fall HSB/CAT & shame accident

Today the biggest local airline company is “chopping” 6000 staff!

Last month the biggest local bank allowanced stop the dividend interest.

This bank use to be anyone’s lover, now become anyone’s hater.

30 years ago when you told us you were working in either company.

We all envy you.

But today if you said you are working in either company.

We all worry your future.

Today I have a shameful accident.

I riding my bicycle and hit an iron fence.

Why is shameful?

It is a carless little mistake but now right leg is 1.5 times to left leg.

2020 Too big to fall HSB/CAT & shame accident


2020 Too big to fall HSB/CAT & shame: HSBC/CAT are "too big to fail" & my embarrassing accident 2020: HSBC/CAT are "too big to fail" & my embarrassing accident

I've suggested a couple of updates to this above. "Too big to fail" is a known phrase that was used to describe big banks during the 2008 financial crisis and I think it sits best in quotation marks. I think "embarrassing" is more natural than "shameful" to describe your bike accident - "shameful" has a very strong negative meaning.

This bank use to be anyone’s lover, now become anyone’sloved by everyone but is now haterd. This bank use to be loved by everyone but is now hated.

"Lover" means sexual partner, so doesn't work in this context! "Everyone" means "all the people" and I think it works better than "anyone" ("any one of the people") here. You don't need to repeat it twice in the sentence either.

Better to combine these two sentences. I think the "if... would" structure is a nice way of phrasing this.

You probably need "thicker" to specify what you mean by "1.5 times"
