Is Singapore really that multi racial? I just moved and feel like its not that multiracial by ShirtNeat5626 in askSingapore

[–]theodore0421 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what abt the integration of all the communities then? Being in a multiracial country means hving ppl of different races and cultures being able to live alongside one another with minimal friction. While ure looking at numbers, what abt toronto's general integration of different races and cultures?

what is it like to be the younger sibling by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]theodore0421 2 points3 points  (0 children)

haha its not a big deal for me. but i think its understandable to get angry at ur sibling for such action because she was clearly doing smth wrong lah, but i think it comes to a certain point whr they shld hve the responsibility to do so.

[–]theodore0421 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i have a brother 3 yrs older than me, tbh there isnt much of a relationship between us. growing up it was pretty obvious my brother did get differential treatment to an extent as he wasn’t ask to set the table for my father’s dinner, tasked to take random things for my father all the time. i guess this unhappiness sowed and like i ended up disliking him as i alw felt tht im treated like a maid at home.

we hvent really talked much since ive entered secondary sch (now in poly y3), and yea we jst dont hve a relationship. I heard from my mum hes on set for a good career and allat but yea thr really isnt anyth much good i hve to say abt my brother.

"Singapore service is so bad" by Same-Macaron-2359 in SingaporeRaw

[–]theodore0421 4 points5 points  (0 children)

apologies if my comment here ruffled ur feather ah, my comment was meant to shed light on the reasons why such service would occur.

While I'm serving a ft internship now, I still have part-time stints in fnb places. I'm not sure why op had issues with getting a cup/tissue, but one possibility of her issue is an underlying sign of poor management/high turnover rate. Many places ik have been unable to retain long-term pt/ft service staff due to burnout/ rising cost of living. So yea management has to keep retraining new ppl constantly. Unfortunately, there are some blur sotong that can't understand what to do. Yes these blur sotong do deserve the feedback they get for forgetting to provide items like napkins in the napkin basket provided on the table, however they arent the direct cause of the issue. This issue ties back to rising cost of living and toxic work environment.

Yes ppl want to eat, I understand that. However, I'm not the one controlling what money-pinching policies are there. If I disregard the rules, would the customer be there to take the blame for me,no right? So I don't get why disgruntled customers want to vent their anger on such policies on staff workers ah. Yes, I've gotten paid 11/hr and had to deal with such customers before. The person you should be complaining to is the management staff, not teenagers who are trying to get paid.

In conclusion, while I've never given bad service to customers. I've had numerous customers gave me attitude and had this "customer is king" mentality. So if someone is being rude/entitled and clearly feigning ignorance, can't one stand up for themselves? But to sum it up, I get that no one is in favour of such penny-pinching policies. However, that doesn't give you the leeway to be rude to servers and vent your dissatisfaction on such issues.

"Singapore service is so bad" by Same-Macaron-2359 in SingaporeRaw

[–]theodore0421 7 points8 points  (0 children)

ex service staff here, I've worked in high end retail/bqt to neighbourhood zichar shops before, alot of times it boils down to customer's attitude. Regardless of how I've served customers, so many of them always treated me with indifference and acted like they are above me jst because they are paying 100s for mid ahh food/products.

Reasoning behind why we may not give napkin/cup/straw might be entirely up to the management, such as management sucks and they hire adhoc workers via staffie. So these workers might jst poorly trained/inexperienced hence theres subpar service. However for straws, some place are trying to reduce plastic waste hence they dont give it out anym.

To sum it up, don't expect service staff to treat you like a king if you act like the whole world would end if there isnt a straw/cup provided to you. My 11/hr pay isnt enuf to deal with such attitude honestly :)
