I was at Yishun MRT NTUC earlier today about 715pm, and I heard
this commotion.
This woman was shouting at the top of her voice with all the
f-words and other assortment of swear words at this cashier.
Apparently the system overcharged her or something and the cashier
had to scribble something on the receipt in order to refund the
overcharged amount to the customer so that her cash total would
balance for the day.
But this woman was totally rude and acting like an animal towards
the cashier, who said nothing back for all her abuses. She claimed
she was a "f-ing English teach at Raffles Girls' Secondary" and her
father is in the police. Is this how educated people should act? Is
this how a schoolteacher should behave? Is this how a teacher from
Singapore's top school should conduct herself? It is such a small
issue and did this even justify making a scene over, and one with
all the obscenities one can find in the English language?
I wonder if she can be punished properly. An indian lady could not
put up with her language told her to mind her language and
reprimanded the security guard for not calling in the police for
all the bad vocabulary that the "RGS teacher" was using. And the
RGS teacher just kept swearing and swearing. The poor cashier just
kept quiet and cried.
This is simply not right.
