Do you know how to read signs? If your answer is yes, are you 100% sure? It was like any ordinary Tuesday, when I have Chinese Orchestra training which ended at 6pm. The conductor, however only let us go at 6.30pm. He did not feel like stopping as the competition was coming nearer and nearer. When it ended , I would usually complain silently in my head about the work load while walking towards the bus stop. At the same time, I will guess what time I will sleep .11pm? 12midnight?
That day when the bus arrived and the door opened, a pungent smell of curry and other smell of dishes greeted me. Looking around the bus to find the source of the smell, I spotted a man eating from his styrofoam box which was wide open. He was sitting like a gangster eating 'proudly'.
Did he even notice the striking sign that says no eating??NO! Was he afraid of the fine?NO! Does he feel out of place when doing so? NO!This is one of the worst ettiquete I have seen on a bus.
Next problem, or shall I call it bad ettiquete. When the bus is crowded, people tend to be on a constant lookout for seats. That is the typical SINGAPOREAN STYLE. Nothing wrong that I can find out from. One day, when I was on a crowded bus , the person that was sitting on the seat in front of where I was standing was getting off. Yeahs ! I was going to have a seat!! Just as I was about to 'celebrate', this man squeezed his way past me to occupy the seat. I was furious. SO angry that I felt like puling him off the seat and throwing him out of the bus.( oops too violent ).
What has happened to you commuters? Why such unruly behavior? I do not understand someone please enlighten me........
