the watson dilemma
this is the third time at watsons where they grudgingly recycled bags for me.first time: told auntie its ok to place the sanitary stuff with the nail polish remover (after convincing her its ok and that's really what i want)
second time: told guy its ok to place the sanitary stuff with the juice (gave me raised brow look and repeated "i put them together now ah?")
third time: told guy its ok to place sanitary stuff with sng boey (gave me puzzled face and probably thinks i'm not clean or something)
if a customer says its ok to place everything into one bag, why do you have to insist NO or worse yet, throw me a dirty look? like hello? the pads/liners are UNUSED and sealed so why can't you place them in the same bag for me? cos its suay (traditional chinese people think women's sanitary products will bring bad luck, even the unused ones)?
i just don't get it.

sad to say but true, we, chinese have weird superstitions.
and not to say, not environmental friendly cos we always ask for more plastic bags, when not necessary and end up throwing them away back home.
*sigh* its a tough job for the government here..
1. teach people how to be courteous (like duh!)
2. teach people to give way
3. teach people to recycle
...man...
