Betul what you said . Most are not genuine one nowadays. Like certain religious group who ask for donation....mana la ada can specify the amount punya. If give RM1 RM2 they say dont want. So like that one meh?<br /><br /><br />I think am not good at rejecting people. When they come selling things and i wanna reject, i dare not look them into the eyes and say no. Usually i look into my bowl of noodles or rice and geleng kepala. Maybe scare to see their disappointed face kot. <br /><br />Another one are those school kids asking for donation. That one is very hard to reject. Why la school nowadays still send kids go out and ask for donation. As a mother, i feel very uncomfortable. Some will reject terus . some will give . and sometimes i see there are some who tried to chat up the school kids. It's just so dangerous lehSmall Kucinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06420461345191241920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23963594.post-70915386990928721392015-09-09T22:14:05.486+08:002015-09-09T22:14:05.486+08:00Hohoho ......your NN just had ads.

Like what i mentioned in an earlier comment thread la. The worker see my face already know i would order kopi o panas. so the worker willn automatic get me the drink lor. Yes it is nice to be welcomed like that la provided no loads of questioning. <br /><br />I paling takut is when eating and the owner come over to chit chat ask aout this and that. How la to answer with mouth full and then sometimes whe they know what like you are in and they will asked free advice pulak. Free advice not that bad. Worst still is they ask help to book this and reserves that. Say no then they tak suka pulak.

Secondly like those selling lottery one, you said you don't want or don't bother them, they still hand it to your face very closely like that, sometimes I will get mad and show the anger face >.< Oh ya, one more those who has legs and hand with good conditions one, they holding a cup or bowl ask for donation, I every time want to said "you got legs and hands and not like you are not capable to work, why you don't go look for a job instead of doing this?"

Some of the aunties of the place I patronised sometimes can talk very loud or can be rude when they are stress. Some likes to make fun of you too as they know I ordered the same food everytime, though I can't be bother la. <br />But what I dislike is when I ask them to clear the table, they sometimes will give you a bad face. Well I usually ask politely and I know they are busy but then as a customer, I am entitled to a clean table.

These can be old folks or people with disability but I feel that roaming around the kopitiams is the answer for them as they should go to some welfare centres which can take care of them. By supporting them in buying the goods, we actually encouraged them. <br />There are even foreigners like Africans who sold watches or belts walking around the kopitiams. I just waved my hand to tell them I don't want instead of talking to them, who knows they could be dangerous.<br />ChrisAuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077277168519458783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23963594.post-43017486457087848022015-09-03T23:57:21.020+08:002015-09-03T23:57:21.020+08:00I also dislikes folks talking to me while I am hav...I also dislikes folks talking to me while I am having my own personal time during breakfast. Well, this is the time where I can wind down a bit before the start of a lond day and I prefer to be quiet and alone, just like you. Even I met a friend, I will just stick to myself and probably just say hi and a smile.<br /><br />I remember there was some poly students trying to do some sort of projects and in an empty Starbucks with lots of tables, that fella chose to sit with me. I know he purposely wanted to see how I behave. He asked me if he can sit here and I question him there's a lot of seats around with a stern look. He started talking to me and I told him that I want to be alone. He probably sense I am angry and move away. hahaha..ChrisAuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077277168519458783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23963594.post-83790761938380870722015-09-03T23:51:55.116+08:002015-09-03T23:51:55.116+08:00But since the shop is small and the tables are clo...But since the shop is small and the tables are closed together, there are groups of people who simply talk loudly and laugh loudly which I hate it. That really spoils my mood. <br />And, there are some folks who request to share the table and then after finishing their food, they just leave with the left over plate. It can look unappetising especially remains of half boiled eggs. Well, can't they be a little courtesy of returning the plates back since you ask to share the table. Just show a little courtesy.

Of course, not all the time I shared the table with others as there are times I can have it all of my own, it depends la. <br /><br />I shared with aunties who just did her groceries, uncles who ordered a kopi and then started to browse thru his paper, of course, working adults , students and even tourists. Most of the time there are no issues as maybe that's the way of life here, everybody mind their own business. In addition, most of the folks are well manner.
