Jerkar*e
You never truly understand the full impact of the word until you experience it firsthand.
There are some people who do not bother about the well-being of others because by some some twisted perception they think the world revolves around them. They, the axis to this planet Earth. Oh... how mighty, everyone let's kowtow to the Majesties!
Majesties my foot!
Customers of such category are even more obtusive. They demand excellent service, the instant money exchanges hands. Obviously (not to them somehow or another), when there are other customers and only ONE staff at hand, this equation does not exist. Simply because the ratio is skewed.
Therefore, taking this into light and exercising some common sense (which is basically what separates humans from animals) and if not that then a little courtesy, time should be added into the equation.
Time to make the drinks, time to serve the other customers. The bottom line is that, time is needed!
At the end of the day, if it is too much for you to wait for your designated servant to serve you, kindly bestow your golden smile when you request for your money to be refunded. Make it out like a demand and you basically have no manners. Perhaps just a tad similar to the animal kingdom.
If you still are confused as to why you cannot demand that instant service seeing that many have the mentality of I paid, I am King. Take a second to consider how You would feel in the shoes of a service staff.
Afterall, with Singapore's latest courtesy campaign, Customers help make service better. The golden rule of customers are always right is passe, long gone in an ancient era.
The fact that such campaigns are needed is indeed something to laugh about, because it is apparent to all that we truly have no courtesy instilled in us from the start. To need to have the government to remind and educate values like this is ridiculous and really humilating.
However, imagine a world without this reminders, manners would be atrocious. Wars would commence because of such tempers and single mindedness. Until a basic courtesy is instilled in each and every one from birth, the notion of world peace is a distant thought, reduced to a customary mention at beauty pageants.
Ladies and gentlemen, please mind your Ps and Qs.
