Tampines MRT Station

paperlove SG

Anyone stays in Tampines?

During the peak hours (approx 7 to 9am?)

there is always an auntie standing outside the main entrance of Tampines MRT Station selling tissue paper.

I cannot stand her 'act pathetic' look.

She have been there for some years.

Occasionally there will be another one - Mother and daughter (about 8-yr-old)
Also selling tissue paper. Sometimes competing with business.

In both cases, they have 2 hands and 2 legs which seemed to be working.

U should see for yourself.

The auntie will find opportunity to look into ur eyes and send electrical waves.

And the way she begs sounds wrong.

paperlove SG

She was standing awkwardly outside the main entrance. And alot people will walk past her.

She is very eye-catching as the way she begs is Neutral

Just wonder anyone seen her.

I just happen to see one aunty selling tissue paper at around 11 plus am at Tampines MRT but its near the staircase facing the SMRT & Citibank card promotion booth but not sure if its the same

popmynutsy SG

selling it is a job.

norm SG

You will see many "aunties" standing at entrance at night, when the sky is dark. Laughing

dumbdumb! SG

selling tissue is her job, the sad sad look is her advertisment and invitation to treat. Very Happy

WiNtEr'SkiLL SG

hmmm. nothing wrong with that i guess.. they are not begging... just running a mini business...

FocusPoint SG

Talking about 7th month coming , heheheh. Just remember to double check the change she hands you back should you buy tissue from her. Make sure it's 'ren jian qian' and not 'di fu qian' Twisted Evil

paperlove SG

I know she made a complete comeback this year.

I saw her before few years back I don't remember which part.

She is the one when you walk past her, she tries to look into ur eyes and exert electrical waves. Confused

Then she keep saying: 'Xiao Jieeeee... Xie xieee niiiii.." and many more varieties but she keep thanking and showing the pathetic look. I wonder how many people actually stop to make a purchase of tissue paper during peak hours. So far I've seen one.

allentyb SG

whats wrong with selling tissue papers?

paperlove SG

It's considered nightmare if I see her in my dreams.

That time I accidentally made eye contact with her.

I feel disgusted by the electrical waves I received from her.

hehe sometimes around 7pm also have la.. not just in the morning -.-

and i think they are really "ko lian" Crying or Very sad

Vel Vel SG

she is working with her hands and feet, isnt it?

but why are u talking bad of her when she is jus trying to earn her living?

what are u doing now could potentially discourage people who pass by and is actually intending to buy, but is suddenly reminded that someone said she act ke lian.
she is already earning peanuts.

what's wrong with selling tissues?
u dun wanna buy, sui bian ni.
