Are we Singaporeans really just so bochap & self centered? Boarded a packed bus this morning and due to a bus which broke down beforehand, many people were trying to squeeze up the bus. Some who couldn't board, walked to the rear to gesture for us to move in. I quickly turned around & gestured the pple standing next to me to move in.. Nobody seemed to bother. Everybody were just rooted to the ground. (I regretted not shouting aloud, or just squeezed all the way in).
After the bus reached stop, I went to the bus driver to suggest to her to open the rear door for pple to board.
The lady bus driver said if it's only a few pple, she is ok to do so. But if there were too many pple, all would stand at the staircase causing the door unable to close. She said many also didn't bother to pay the fare after that. I asked if can change the Ez card tap at the rear door to allow both entry & exit, she said not possible. And she said she was scolded badly t
his morning because of the crowd.
"顾客不可以宠的。如果我每次让顾客上来，其他不让，那会不公平。管不了这么多。＂(in brief, it would be unfair if I am the only bus driver that allow commuters to board the bus from the exit door. Cant afford to care so much)
C'mon, we can definitely be more kind & gracious than this! At least I won't give up so easily, gonna continue making a stand on this.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- President Barack Obama made a campaign speech on the First Coast to nearly 4,000 supporters at the Prime F. Osborn II Convention Center on Thursday afternoon.
The president addressed the economy and strengthening medicare. Tickets were free. All of the available tickets were given out on Tuesday.
Air Force One, which was carrying the President, was delayed in landing at Jacksonville International Airport due to thunder and lightning. He was supposed to land at 12:45 p.m. and was scheduled to speak at 1:15 p.m. He did not speak until 2:15 p.m.
President Obama spoke about moving forward, which is the theme of his campaign. He also said that top-down economics is not the answer for America.
"This country was not built on top-down economics," he said during his speech. "This country was built from the middle class up."
Obama also spoke of where he and Republican candidate Mitt Romney differ on health care.
"He plans to roll back health care reform, forcing more than 200,000 Floridians to pay more for their prescription drugs," Obama said, speaking of Romney. "He plans to turn Medicare into a voucher program. So if that voucher isn't worth enough to buy the health insurance that's on the market, you're out of luck."
The president also talked about how he and Romney differ on taxes, saying that the middle class deserve a tax cut and the wealthy, those that make more than $250,000 a year, need to pay more.
"Like you, I believe you cannot reduce the deficit and deal with our debt without asking folks like me," Obama said. "Without asking the wealthiest Americans to give up the taxes they've been getting for the past decade.
"Now, my opponent doesn't want just to keep these tax cuts. He wants to cut those taxes by another $5 trillion, including a 25 percent tax cut for every millionaire in the country."
