Raffles place has indeed developed a culture of its own, that is so uniquely Singapore, by the number of tissue packets on the seats than the number of ppl looking for seats.
Well, I just discovered another interesting fact, is the conversation which ppl talked abt.
You dun have to eavesdrop on the person sitting next to you, abt what they are talking abt and what they are complaining abt. They seems like they are nvr shy to share with you. It will definitely always be some complaints from the office!
Usually, the morning accumulated nonsense and unhappiness, will all be spilled during lunch, already there is not enough time to eat, the person sitting next to you will still be grumbling, "whoa lao, that betty hor, ppl 9 o'clock work, she come in at 9.30..", "the thing Candy ask me to do is ridiculous, y? think i'm her maid ah.." etc etc etc..
Since it's Monday, these complaints are unneccsary louder, the way they sound, they are nvr wrong, but what can they do when they go back office again? Behave like nothing happen and work...
Well, it's not ethically or moralely (think the spellings all wrong) unsound or bad, but hav you wondered who is sitting next to u? could he/she be your new colleague or ur new boss, even worse. Could that person know some one from your office, since half of the ppl working there wears a pass during lunch? Imagine the foreigners moving ard us, do we want them to have an image of Singaporeans as really complaint king / queen? it's really about time to shake away these tags!!
Since the morning is already bad enough and nothing can be done, well, y dun we just try to forget them and share wif your lunch mate what happening / happy / interesting / funny things is goin around you over the weekend? wouldn't that be more interesting and enjoying? hav a gd laugh and go back to work smiling.. and hav a better day from there on.
