Ugly Singaporeans

yeah i guess this term is familar with most of us. Sometimes, i am really ashamed to be a Singaporean. We are pampered, we are rude, we are kiasu and kiasee.

Take for exam on the mrt train during the morning rush hour. People start rushing in before u can even get out. I mean....... obviously u must let ppl who wants to come out come out first before u can have space to move in?!?!?! Fucking logical common sense???
Common scene:
People who are rushing to go work are desperately trying to get out of the crowded train....
People who are afraid of not getting into the train or rushing to place their fat asses on tiny seats pushing and shoving their way in....
Tempers flare.....
People inside get pissed... they can't get out they gonna be late.
People trying to get in are pissed. They cannot understand why the train has a lack of space and how come people aren't moving in.....
Scene gets ugly......

Familiar?!?!?

Got a temp job recently. (finally)
I am an usherer for some bank that recently shifted. Since the premises is new, people are unfamilar with where to go for their various banking activities and so we are hired to guide them.

Unfortunately, this job also let me see the ugliest human behaviour.... SINGAPOREANS ARE BLOODY FUCKING IMPATIENT!!!!!! THEY ARE ALSO FUCKING RUDE.
They kept asking,"eh ..eh ... must queue ah ??? why must queue. Wah must wait so long.. can dun queue not...."
All the time i felt like telling them: "wake up yur idea la. You think what. You big fuck isit???Everybody also must queue. Why u cannot do the same? Yur ass more valuable is it??"

Pissed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of them sees five, yes only five people before her, then start asking mi how come queue so long. Can jus directly go see the banker not. Wah .... u no appointment leh, what u want mi to do. Help u cut queue is it??? Then i told her, yah now abit crowded cause got promotions. So must wait. No choice have to queue. They she sulked as if i owed her money.
Sigh..... its simply pathetic.... Some ppl they are just borned assholes.....

Just got Fucked by a customer today. Well he came in. Saying he wanted to checkup his account balance and withdraw some money. He din even say he wanted to open an acc. lo. So i showed him to the counters at the back. But the counters at the back has a rather longer queue, so he wasn't too happy. I can tell from his face. Anyway he joined the queue. After 15 mins he came back and said: "HELLO. U idiot. U din tell mi here can open acc. Now i wasted 15mins. U just assumed that i only wanted to withdraw money and showed mi to the back right. U are suppose to direct people and u din even know yur job well."

Well i was quite stunned. So i turned and smiled: But u wanted to withdraw money right? its at the back. If u want to open an acc u are suppose to queue up here.

He raised his voice in an agitated manner and said i din say so... he was supposedly in the first in queue then i ask him to go to the back la...

ARRGH...... LIAR. U were not even in queue lo....

He was making a scene in the lobby scolding mi and yelling at me while everybody looked on. Damn paiseh man. He dun want face i want leh ....
All the time i jus smiled and apologised while he scolded and scolded. Pathetic. I almost wanted to explode. Fortunately, he gave up and walked straight to the counter to complain. Complain la... as thou i fucking care. What an asshole. I think he just don't want to wait. So purosely make a scene so that he can be first. He got that proud arrogant bastard look.

Thank GOD i din explode. I can't imagine the consequences..... He thinks he is the only one with a temper. Well... all i can say is that he hasn't seen mine yet.
Well i do remembered his face thou..... Should i see him next time.............................................

Sometimes i do wonder... They say the level of service in Singapore is not good. I wonder do Singaporeans truly deserve good service??? Are they asking too much and taking it for granted?
Service personnels have pride too man. Don't push too far..... U might end up actually making a fool out of yourself.

quotes

I find these quotes hilarious....... :P

How long a minute is, depends on which side of the bathroom door you`re on.

If your dog is fat, you aren't getting enough exercise.

No one appreciates the very special genius of your conversation as the dog does.

You know, the more I see of people, the more I like pigs.

Eighty percent of all people consider themselves to be above average drivers.

The trouble with doing something right the first time is that nobody appreciates how difficult it was.

Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate.

If you have a difficult task, give it to someone lazy ... that person will find an easier way to do it.

There will always be a battle between the sexes because men and women want different things. Men want women and women want men.

Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

New phone!

Just got my nokia 3230. So happy :D !!!~

Signed a Singtel 2 yr plan for it. The one with the free incoming call and no sms one. Got one pt to note. This phone is COMPLICATED. Works like a mini-computer. Well its suppose to be a smart phone. GUess that i am a little suar khoo....

Overall very satisfied with my latest toy. Heh heh .... i love gadgets....

Will upload the pics that i took with this phone. Meanwhile, i am just too bloody lazy to install this program that allows mi to upload pics. Damn ...

driving and contact lenses....

Had just sent Joey home. On the way home i got loST!!! Again? Well.... visibility is different at night. Somehow, landscapes look different. My contacts are very dry and throughout the whole journey i was praying hard that they do not suddenly popped out. If it does, i will be in deep shit.

As i was driving along PIE, my contacts got drier and drier and my vision got worst. Shit i can't even see clearly now. I jus follow the road and hope that i can get home as fast as possible. Took a peep at the speedometer... 11oKmph. Opps... hope that there are no traffic polices along the way. My dad will kill mi if i got a speeding tix.

The time is 12.45am. I am tired, very sleepy and i cannot see for nuts. Argh... bad situation. Hmm is this what they call the worst case scenario on TV? Ok hope it doesn't get worst than this. Just then i suddenly see alot of cars in front. Heavy traffic. Oh wait a min.... they are moving darn slow. I slammed the brakes, hoping to stop on time. Luckily i did... Checked the rearview mirror and saw the taxi driver behind did the same.......
They had closed off 2 lanes leaving only one.... the extreme right lane opened. Damn... can't they give more advance warning? Maybe they did, i didn't / couldn't see. Turns out they are carrying out some maintainence work....

When i finally got home, i thank my lucky stars. Shit no driving late at night with contacts again. Too painful, too dangerous. It feels like i am seeing thru a glass of water throughtout the whole journey.... Maybe i shld bring my spects along in future. Phew......

aftermath...

For the past week i have been trying to find that silver lining behind the dark clouds...
I have to look no further. I have found it already. The storm is over, the air is cleared. One more obstacle that allow us to know each other and ourselves better :)

I have quitted my starhub telemarketer job. Too sian. No sales for despite trying for 3 weeks. Oh man, thats super demoralising. However on the last day of work, i actually got 2 sales!!! (excluding the one that i signed up for myself) One of the sale is actually for MOL6500, one of the harder packages to sell. How ironic is that. Is that suppose to be a farewell gift, a morale boost that came too late, something to save my face, or just a sign that i have been too impatient and quitted too early? Well, KJ told mi that no one ever broke the record of not having even one sale before leaving starhub... Hmmm... i came close to breaking this record. CLOSE....... Phew.

Sigh.... The colleages at starhub are nice and fun. Gonna miss working there man. :(

Gonna look for a new job soon. I NEED THE MONEY. damn!!!!

amusing incident.

As i was working at Starhub, i called up this tread leading to this girl. It was a residential line, so her dad picked up the phone.

me: Hi, may i speak to XXX ( i forgot what her name was...).

Dad: Nope she is not in. ( in Chinese)

me: are u her dad???

Dad: yes, what do u want????

me: oh sorry to bother u, i am calling from starhub.

Dad: yah so what?

me: oh do u have internet at home????

Dad: i dunno. U must ask my daughter. U ask so many questions for what??? ( sounding suspicious.....)

me in my broken chinese: Oh coz we are having PRoMotiOn/ Discount /.... ( whatever u called that in chinese... if u dun have internet u might be interested in Starhub Broadband Services.......

Dad sounding extremely paranoid: WHAT??!?!?!?! What interested?!??!?! Interested in who?? who the hell is Starhub??? Who are u??? My daughter INternet Dating?????

Me: No NO nononO!!!! Sir.... Starhub!!! Starhub!!! The internet service provider...Xin Her... whatever.....

Dad sounding amused: Orrrhhh!!! Starhub ah .... hahahaha that internet, cable TV company ah .....

Me: ........................... yah yah..... uncle relax relax.......


This incident left mi extremely tickled............... :P

Solitaire.....

What happened these few days was so terrible i din even feel like writing it down..... :(

Solitaire - The Carpenters

There was a man
A lonely man
Who lost his love
Through his indifference

A heart that cared
That went unshared
Until it died
Within his silence

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him takes him down
And by himself, it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again

And keeping to himself, he plays the game
Without her love, it always ends the same
While life goes on around him everywhere,
He's playing solitaire

A little hope
Goes up in smoke
Just how it goes
Goes without saying

There was a man
A lonely man
Who would command
The hand he's playing

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him takes him down
And by himself, it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again

And keeping to himself, he plays the game
Without her love, it always ends the same
While life goes on around him everywhere,
He's playing solitaire

And solitaire's the only game in town
And every road that takes him takes him down
And by himself, it's easy to pretend
He'll never love again

Paradoxes and Ironies

Just realised today that my blog is more than one year old. Wow!! well done dude, you actually *managed* to keep it updated.(more or less) Ok at least there is an average of 2 entries per month. Heh heh....

Been feeling rather moody recently. Perhaps i am disappointed, perhaps i have come to self-realisation. Maybe reality hit too soon??? I don't know. But one thing for sure, I will not accept what is at the surface to be true, and to push and fight on rather than fade to oblivion, living the life of an average man with average abilities with an average life. Funny isn't it? The ordinary man always wanted to be extraordinary while the extraordinary man always wanted to be the ordinary man? Irony???? Paradox????

I do believe in fate and destiny but i also believe that we can choose to not accept them. We are what we made ourselves to be.

Idealistic??? Fighting a battle that you can never win?

Random thoughts floating around.... Somehow i feel that its more and more difficult to articulate how i feel. As a result??? ---> surpressed......


Its funny how often we overlook the finer things in life. Things that would normally would have been thought of as nice has now become mandatory. Expectations increases with time. Are we taking things for granted??? Are we recieving less or are we just actually expecting more???

Life is full of paradoxes....
