Just my SGD2.00 worth...
Wednesday, November 01, 2006
Audio : Listen

Just received a call from NEA officer. He told me that the stall I mentioned had already received quite a handful of warnings and tickets from NEA before and I was definitely not the only one to lodge a complaint about the hygiene issue.

The previous post was put up at tomorrow.sg and received responses from people. Those who posted there generally felt that I over-reacted and was kind of petty in asking for the SGD2.00.

Can I stress that I did not ASK for SGD2.00? I demanded from him what he was going to do now that he has spat into my bowl of dessert. (I had half expected him to apologize but..) His first reaction was not to apologize but to ask me how much was that bowl of dessert. Like I mentioned in tomorrow.sg, I was too angered by his earlier actions to think properly - so I just told him 'two dollars' and when he passed me SGD2.00, I took it without thinking.
I agree that I should not have taken the SGD2.00, and I really regretted taking it. Well I was angry then and just simply took it without much thought.

Why would I want his SGD2.00 anyway? I was just too pissed by his behaviour.

Maybe people are not understanding what I really meant in my previous post. His unhygienic handling of food and inconsiderate shouting were the main points. I have come across a lot of hawkers who do tout but not in this way, and I did not complain against them! But well... :-)

Something was brought up on tomorrow.sg by Anonymous Monkey. He/She mentioned that the "non-elite/neighbourhood poor/average IQ ppl must always conform to highly educated standard..."

Erm, I don't remember ever mentioning anywhere that I was 'highly educated'... :-( I am not an elite in any sense and definitely not highly educated. So, I was not trying to make anyone conform to any 'highly educated standard'!

For the record, I AM NOT AN ELITIST and I don't want anything to do with any 'WSM-ism'!!! :-) I'm just an ordinary guy relating a bad hawker experience!
