WhErE aRt ThOu Is My TrAiN?
Train disruption at Sembawang during the peak hour this morning. I arrived the red tomato MRT station only to see a horrifying 7 minutes wait for the next train. On a normal day, the waiting time is between 1 to 2 minutes so 7 minutes is basically a heart attack, since escalator after escalator full of commuters appear every minute.
When I got to the platform, it was already packed with communters. U can sense everyone's frustration at the long wait. The first that came to mind was: damn, am going to be late.
Thankfully, an empty train was released on the middle platform and I even managed to plonk my butt on a seat. :D
Have no idea what happened at Sembawang (technical fault? Another suicide jump?). Only knew the problem started there after my bf rang me.
Anyway, I juz gotta rant (again!) at the unruly behaviour of extremely gan cheong/kiasu commuters. AND it's not limited to some aunties but well dressed executives. Rushing for their life as if playing musical chairs. When it's obvious that there is NO more seats and u have to use your 2 legs to stand and there IS AMPLE space for everyone to stand, they still duno rush for what.
Idiots.
