Stupid Buses
Just thought that I might update. Work's going fine, financial closing is up and coming, so no labour's day holiday for my colleagues. Talk about the irony, lol. I've too many "rude people" anecdotes that I find it cumbersome to recall them and post about it. Something about Singapore makes people this way I'm sure. Oh, and I found out another reason to favour intelligence over persistence. Apparently, having some woman pushing her trolley and hitting another individual's legs repeatedly is a great way of getting the her to know that you want her to move and let you pass. Doesn't matter that the width of the aisle barely allows two trolleys to pass by at any one time. Doesn't matter that there is another trolley parked directly adjacent to me. Doesn't matter that any closer to the edge I move, I'm going to fall into the refrigeration compartment. You absolutely must get that special offer deal before anyone else does.
Although these are just mini stuff that seem to gnaw at the edge of your sanity everyday, what I cannot stand is the fact that this week, a grand total of 4 buses have zoomed past me when I wave them down at the bus stop. This prompts me to ask a very critical question: Are my arms too short? No, nevermind that. But the fact that 4 different bus drivers have done the same thing, there can only be two options: One, my arms are really too bloody short in which the case, I'm sure I'm fat enough for the drivers to see my body standing at the usual bus flagging spot from afar. Two, they just plain suck and can't give a damn about the poor passenger to-be. Oh, and they are all from SB*. Great week for me, enjoy your long weekend people and Syl, don't be too cheap with the protection. Tata.
