Conversation with FT waitress

And i don't give a shit to what globalisation fuck or what theory. A society has to have its own core of citizens and that's that. Imagine Singaporeans flood...

I just realized the mentality of the foreigners whom you mentioned above:

They could be holding the same view as you (not saying it is wrong), that they are pragmatic in their approach where dialects and languages are concerned. "It is always good to speak more than one's own dialect and language though it is not as though they cannot survive if they do not."

That's why they do not learn English (for the Chinese PRCs) because their view is Mandarin Chinese is enough for their livelihood and it is not as though they cannot survive if they do not speak English.

What do you think, Pengawal? Woof Woof Meow

guru, in that post I wasn't talking about myself only, I was also referring to the prc.

Pengawal, that means, unless forced to a corner, those PRC may not learn English lah.

Every now and then I see PRC and the sales assistants or fast food chain crew communicating in "alien" ...................... I heard grievances on this problem from our local Malay and Indian singaporeans. tsk tsk tsk, what a shame!

Today I read an article in Berita Harian written to the Forum section by a reader.

Stupid internet very unstable, lag lag lag ....

My Malay friends are pissed off by PRC who refuse to learn English to communicate with other race. They have serious attitude problem to expect people to understand their Mandarin and kowtow to give in to them, this is not China. In Rome, do as the Romans do.

Exactly!

You are able to see things buddy.

Unlike some cunts living in denial.

who's the cunt?

your sister, your niece or your mother?

tell me. how does it feel when you read the above? you dont like it right?

if you dont, then dont do it? if you want to hurl insults i can do it too.

but then it will make both of us look very ugly.

we are here to give our 2 cents worth. nobody can tell another person to accept his opinion and say 'thats it. mine is right.'.

we dont agree we just accept and move on. but if you want to play personal attack i can too.

but frankly i dont want that.

so stop it ok.

if that is the case dont patronize that shop. the boss will eventually know the problem and do something about it.

This is sg in a dot.

Language is such a beautiful thing. I don't speak Chinese to another Chinese because of race or whatever but simply because there will always be certain circumstances best described in a particular language because of each language's peculiarity.

Why so contentious?

I still remember having a good laugh exchanging vulgarities with Indonesians, PRCs, Vietnamese years ago with the foreign scholars. It struck me that while they invariably meant to be insulting, there were always variations and twists peculiar to the different languages.

So while they learnt CCB, I wound up learning anjinxiangmehmeh (the contents of which are terribly embarassing) and various descriptions of the male anatomy in Vietnamese.

Won't! Boss cheapskate employ to pay cheapskate salary ignore good customer service. Save money is more important than service to customers.

As long as people can understand each other.

winsomeea SG

If cannot understand, use hands and legs to illustrate what they want to say. hahahha.

I saw the PRC lady using hands to do it but the Malay crew still could not understand.

hHahaha

Hey~~~ u forgot the part in "Hello Stranger", when the male character told the korean hawker that his cooking sux (in thai language) while smiling and doing the thumbs up... The unker shooooo heypi sia

Worcer SG

Philipno waitess - welcome sir mdm! .... (WTF?! i am not asking for maid to serve me here leh)

China waitess - Ji Wei?!(How many of you?!) ..... All talk a lot of shit but nvr really do for customers. Impatience also.

In Singapore, our Mac donalds are more expensive than the ones in America. For poorer quality and service, we have to pay more. And its always packed! In America, nobody goes Mac. There are always better choice. This shows Singapore food really sucks to the core!

SeaweedTuk SG

ai ya i working at a jap restaurent also tonnes of pinoy working there, at first i kena culture shock cuz i thought i at phillipines then the uncle tell me its a norm already. They keep calling u brother but behind ur back fuck around wit you

AngelOfDarkness SG

I refuse to speak Chinese to the FT in service line. Unless I die-die need info which they can’t convey to me in our working language, which is ENGLISH.

They so bloody rude, when I speak to them in Chinese they say, “u chinese and your chinese so lan?!” and I feel like telling them “STFU you with your barely-there English come work here, as customer service summore!!!!”
