Incident happened on : 1/3/2004 @ around 2045hrs in Jurong Point
Carpark.
I was to meet my friends in Jurong Point so I decided to drive
there. I drove there, found the Jurong Point Carpark, went into the
3rd lane from the left and stopped at the barrier.
I wind down my window and was going to press the "ticket issuing
machine", well, I never expect it to be a cashcard reader. I was
like... WTF!?!? Realising I have no cashcard with me, I quickly
reverse up the slope and enter the 1st lane from the left, thinking
that at least 1 lane should be accepting cash payment.
But ALAS!! I was wrong. I stopped at the barrier, switched on the
hazard lights and called my dad, hoping that he'll tell me he's got
an extra cashcard somewhere in the car, but no.
Feeling anxious, I got out of the car(hazards still on), was trying
to get a fellow driver to lend me his cashcard, but feels too pai
seh to do so. Luckily, I remember a security guard by the carpark
entrance and quickly seek his help. I paid him $2 and he opened the
barrier. He also informed me tat I dun have to get out of the car
to get him, just talk to him via the comm(@ the cashcard reader)
and he'll get to me.
Sooo pai seh... I was like a country pumpkin, dunno anything. Hell,
when did this "cashcard carpark entry" applied?? I didn't know a
thing bout it. *slaps forehead*
