of singaporean OLs
did the traditional chinese thing (her legal excuse) and went all out for new clothes and whathaveyous over the weekend. though she found some real good pieces (2 dresses and an evening bag) for a bargain, the shopping experience over sunday was a tough one involving arm wrestling and foot stomping with one particular singaporean specie; the singaporean OL (blue collar Office Ladies). there's nothing wrong with being an OL, she's just being a complete snooty bitch right now cos she's freshly pissed by their brusque mannerisms and disregard for others, which happen to be traits less prevalent in other categories.here's a mini profile she's observed over the years. Singaporean OLs are often chinese or dialect speaking lians or aunties who usually have no regard for any other human presence, in other words, in a complete world of their own. traits include shopping in packs of three or more, talking real LOUD in changing rooms, snatching clothes off the racks and throwing them back in a bundle instead of attempting a decent effort at folding it, barking at salespeople like they're your maids (this includes the annoying mainland "nouveau riche"), grabbing the exact same design as you have after giving you the top-to-bottom perusal (at times glare), making their men wait around the stores (hence blocking precious space) to whip the credit cards for them.
eek.
