Giving up seats to pregnant lady
-
that's what i feel too. i've always thought of a few scenarios..Originally posted by Short Ninja:In my oipinion people who have to travel from one end of SIngapore to the other on public transportation are fully excused from being courteous (this spelling corright ar not?)
i board at boon lay. take a seat.
pregnant lady enters at jurong east. i give up my seat to her.
she alights at outram. i sit down again.
pregnant lady enters at city hall. i give up my seat to her.
she alights at bedok. i sit down again.
tampines, i alight.
wah damn jialat lah. stand sit stand sit stand sit. i got kena b4.
so usually i just take frm boon lay/tamp and fall asleep str8away. i mean, i really cant open my eyes wide and look out for pregnant ladies in the train. confirm a few stations l8r i'd be sleepy. i go to camp on 1st-4th train and take the train home at 6+pm. -
like someone said what, when u wearing SAF uniform, and you see a pregnant lady on the train, you remain seated. cause you need the rest to serve your country and protect the people. so you need the seat more than her.
but ya...i always see people staring at others who do good deeds, but dont do it themselves.
so i constantly remind myself,
bladez you see all those people staring at that poor chap and not helping him, all those pathetic selfish losers in life who can only be employees, trapped in the rat race and only protecting oneself, do you wanna be like them and be a failure in life?
then by natural reaction, i will go help whoever is in need of help. haha.
-
depends whether is she standing infront of me, if she is, i will give up my seat, if she is not, i will pretend to sleep

To have more angels 4 us all

With angels looking from the sky
To bless our tiny, little island in the sun
With happiness, peace, & clean good fun -
Btw to dispel any misconception abt myself - I am just an old man (just out from an old folks home - hehehe) & my objective in the forum is to maintain or at least prevent my faculties from deteriorating or degenerating because I noticed that sometimes there r mistakes in my grammar & spelling here & there. -
yes and i do hope you do not think i was trying to intimidate or ridicule you. most of the users here just crap around and put down ppl in the name of harmless humour.Originally posted by richong 3216:Btw to dispel any misconception abt myself - I am just an old man (just out from an old folks home - hehehe) & my objective in the forum is to maintain or at least prevent my faculties from deteriorating or degenerating because I noticed that sometimes there r mistakes in my grammar & spelling here & there.

U just happen to meet those without manners.Originally posted by forumer84:Y like dat ah? -
I am absolutely sure u have no such intentions - my background working life has enabled me to differentiate the wheat from the chaff, the sense from the nonsense, the neurotic from the psychotic - so relax man.Originally posted by sinicker:yes and i do hope you do not think i was trying to intimidate or ridicule you. most of the users here just crap around and put down ppl in the name of harmless humour.
What I have in mind is to make so that our little angel will not have such thoughts as "sh....t that dirty old man" although I did not express anything offensive but just my honest take of her comments/views. -
One sentence:
"Kindness does not pay nowadays..." -
Ahem! sorry Sini, me not fat nor pregnant before. But within we gals, I was told that it is not the belly that tell the story, it is the face and the upper arm. A fat gal (ah ma not included ok, only those young to middle age) have bright and rosy cheek and a fat flabby upper arm, a pregnant gal will have a paler look, face with pimples, sleepy and hair quite messy. The forearm will remain slim for those that were slim before preggiedOriginally posted by sinicker:maybe richong wants to get to know you!

On the sexy side, pregnant gal boobs will be enlarged. -

Am not so kind.
Maybe you all never kena pregnant colleagues before.
During their pregnancy , they throw weird tantrums, during their long long maternity leave, have to do all their shit work. Sometimes 2 colleagues' work at one go
Had enuff of prengnies....never ever going to give a seat to them.
Wanna get pregnant => Than make sure u have a husband who can ensure u need not work lor! Dun get your colleagues into trouble

but last time got 1 boi da*n guai lan, i am standing at the mrt train the side that usually dun open, when a preg woman came in with huby. i see who will stand up, trying to signal to them with my eyes. then got one women stand up, not bcuz she alighting. once she stand up that boi "slithered" into the seat, and chao geng, shake head, and play hp. his fren oso there still standing leh. ppl ard me bhb lor. i feel like whacking the fella up but need to alight lor, so "let" the woman stand and lean on the thingy lor.
wah i tot ppl dun like take "hot" seat de?
seriously if u are a guy and yr wife gt preg, and in dat situ. wad u do, tio stun.
or if u ger and tummy da*m big and one gl guy kop yr seat someone offer u.
and if u human, will u let yr own kind sit when they need it more than u?
two cents worth, da*n cheap hor -
i like this. Thats a Good one. BUt how u differentiate a mother who is educated? I mean a non educated sweet Young mother can also dress decently nice. like those working class sweeties. Just a thought..Originally posted by Cool-gal:ya, sporeans.. esp those educated one.. buey tahan.
got once i was stared by a mother who is pushing a baby pram bcos she was at my side, even i apologised n quickly make way for her, she stil gives me tat buey song look n 'gin' me.
luckily lim bu in good mood, if not i sure stare her back.
siao cb= char bor.

Stand up sit down stand up sit down....jialat and I undestand how you feel because I used to go church also>Originally posted by sinicker:that's what i feel too. i've always thought of a few scenarios..

I dont know how you can become a magnet for pregnant people so like you said close eyes go to sleep and that is the best way to travel long distance. -

happened many times and i never expected them to say thanks though.....Originally posted by forumer84:Anyone encounter giving up their seats to pregnant lady on the train and not even an acknowledgment or word of thx was said?
when i give up my seat to senior citizen, at least they will acknowledge or thank you, heck some even reject the offer nicely. But pregnant lady,and mind you these r educated, working class women,they seem to take it for granted that pple MUST give up their seats to them.
Y like dat ah?
