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.

I certainly agree with you. Having been in several customer service jobs, i think i have seen enough to conclude that majority of Singaporeans do need some form of retail therapy first before they start demanding good service. I mean, their manners can be atrocious and really drives u to the wall. However, no matter how 'boiled' you may be, you'd still have to keep that smile (faked one) on your face and say 'yes, how could i assist you then?' I must say, i'm impressed by your tolerance level. Hmm.. your temper have improved a lot!!! haa haaa...
