i just kana FINE...BUS FARE FINED!!!
i was take a bus today and i think today was my unlucky day.
Usually my ezlink card i put in my small purse, but today i found my card was not there..( actually there but inside my WALLET... not in my purse.. and so hard to grab my wallet( because i put too many things inside my bag haha) to save the time and i dunt want ppl staring at me... i just use my one dollar coins.
when i almost reached my place suddenly got inspections.... i thot he only checking the card, so i show my ezlink card ( finnaly i found my ezlink card) and the inspector ask whether i tap the card or not. i said no cz im using coins. then he asked to show him the receipt.( walauuu i keep searching my receipt..i couldn't remember where i put again , then suddenly i found it.( i dunno its good or bad idea when i found the receipt)
i showed my receipt and.....
insp: one dollar its not enuf. u take the bus from alexandra rite? where will u go?
me: Bugis( stoning face)
insp: ( he took out all his paper.. showing me all the directions and the cost)... Read More
so u took the bus from alexandra to bugis and u only pay one dollar where got enuf?
me: how i knw? the bus driver also never say anything.( try to give innocent looks)
insp: its 1.40 u knw.. why u never ask the bus driver? ( showing me another paper.. the FINE cost paper)
me: hayahhh... then i pay another 40 cent lo..( lol)
insp: cannt u must pay the fine, ok lets see.... so u ar from alexandra to bugis.. its 17 stops. hmm its 20 dollar.
me: huh? but its my first time leh?
insp: still, how abt if u just give me ur ic then later SAMAN will collect the fine for u
me: no need, i will just pay now( i scared later SAMAN will charge me more than 20 bucks. )
insp: ok i will issue u the receipt.
me: THANK YOU
HUAA... I EVEN CAN SAY THANK YOU... unbelievable. i can see al ppl stare at me
( 3 stop after bugis station)
insp: i thot u will go down at bugis station?
me: i pay the fine already wat? and no money already.. may as well i take the bus all the way till my place lo...
The end
damn f*ck....
the matter is... why even only first time still kana fine? like there is no chance at all. like this how ppl can learn from their mistake??i knw there are a lot of brochure abt this penalty but like usual where got ppl care? they will be care( like me ) and learn from the mistake after made mistake.
maybe next time they should upgrade their system. then each ezlink will be also an ID, so can knw whether that person is really first time do this kind of mistake or often.
nvm lha.... just think the inspector did his well job, and means he is working... and maybe have a story to tell to his fams when reached home.
the inspector reached home after work...
wife: honey...tired is it?? hows work today??
insp: normal only... like usual lo.. nothin specialll but ermmm NO.. there is sumthin special.. today i finally catched a passenger who underpay the bus fare. somemore she only missed 40 cents only. huaha but still must pay 20 dollars.
wife:wow.. congratulationsss. finally there is something exiting with ur job!!!
insp: so kid? next time u also must becareful ok... PAY THE CORRECT FARE...and ask the bus driver if u dunt knw.
kid: WAT??? 20 bucks?? oh okay..( hororing)
( the kid suddenly realized, everytime he took the bus and pay with coins, he also pay only 1 dollar haha)
the end---
