Dance like there's nobody watching, Love like you'll never get hurt, Sing like there's nobody listening, Live like it's heaven on earth, And speak from the heart to be heard. ~ William W. Purkey

Etiquette training anyone?

Two posts in a day. Amazing! :P

Anyway, I was in a bit of a bad mood this morning (partly from a mouth ulcer, mostly because of inconsiderate LRT passengers & the Rapid KL management)

Yes, inconsiderate & rude. All of them!!

If you travel on an LRT during peak hours, you'd know that unless you get on the train at the first stop, there's relatively no chance of you getting a seat. This isn't a problem, as long as you have something to hold on to during the journey to avoid falling over on the jerky ride.

I get frustrated sometimes, when passengers, instead of holding on to the railings / bars, they lean on it!

What made it worse this morning was the fact that this guy not only leaned on the railing, he practically squashed my hands doing so many times! (Even the other lady holding on was not spared) He continued to lean (even after I roughly pulled my hands out) when he decided to reach out to grab the railings with both his hands (in the process leaning on me with his massive frame, again) when I already had no space to move.

Next was the fact that having a Touch&Go card sucks. They suck because half the time, there's no point in having one. Either the card reader doesn't work / you can't see what's on the blur screen or there's only one freakin' T&G lane at busy places like KLCC!

What's the point of having a supposedly "faster" lane, when there's only ONE lane??

The personnel there didn't even want to check my card when it didn't let me through. The lady had a scowl on her face & told me to just go through the manual ticket lane.

In the end, I think I managed to travel for free for 2 days.

Grrr. Snort. Gaarrrrrr. Baahhhh. Growl.

Taller buildings. Cleaner toilets. Better roads. And sub-standard social etiquette.

Malaysia Boleh konon!
