//hearing aid: i predict a riot - kaizer chiefs

i detest people who don't say thank you

i use to just take it that i'm the better person when it came to the ps and qs and not demand that people say them when they should. now i just think singaporeans are getting downright ungrateful and rude.

Case 1:
just the other day, i held a door for a lady who was a good distance away from me. i saw her coming and so i held the door for her.

happily, without a grin, she waltzes right past me and not with a single acknowledgement or anything.
NO NOD, NO SMILE, NO THANK YOU.

i just smiled and called out: "your welcome!".

she turned for a bit, startled as though i called out her name.
even then she just walked away puzzled.

Case 2:
getting fed up of people just being complacent, i went around doing a few more your welcomes and getting weird stares. oh come one, you never heard of your welcome?!

then finally i decided to push the envelope.

as usual, i held the door for a woman and she saunters right pass me.

"excuse me, you forgot something!"

"oh what?" she searches frantically in her bag

"your thank you." and i walked off

you need to learn how to apprieciate the people around you.
and bloody kindergarten kids are more polite then you.

ok. i shall not rant. i've got more impt things at hand.

shall we saatchi?
