Long John Silver Combo 1

Went to Recruit Express with Ginway today, which is at Ngee Ann City. After making 3 trips there, we were finally led to Haw Par Centre, Dhoby Ghaut for an interview by the Starhub personnel.

We ran our way there to the Starhub building in spite of the heavy rain. There were fewer people there, in contrast with the job agency office, which was filled with throngs of ex-NSFs and A level girls.

Meanwhile, Ginway had just completed his driving lesson at Ubi Centre, which is very near Kakit Bukit, the place of nightmare. His officer training came in handy, as he had to juggle between driving and a nightshift job at the same time. After that interview, (which the interviewer did most of the talking), we proceeded to Long John Silver and ordered the same old things as always.

As we were happily talking and walking towards the MRT station, we sighted a strange sight. Two traffic policemen/women were taking down names from a group of youngsters, apparently caught for jaywalking. Any thought of breaking the law were dashed from our minds, though we sadistically revel at their demise. Ah. No wonder no one was walking across the street even though there were no vehicles coming.

An elderly Indian man joined us in our happy conversation, in which he kept on commenting that Singapore has become very strict, since the Gahmen cares for our road safety. In which I replied, "Yeah, Spore is becoming a fine city man." GST increased to 7%, so more fines are to expected of errant and unfortunate souls out there. Your mishap=more social security for the poor. Or rather, as the paper has put it, "Closing the gap between the lower-income and the rich people"
