Preferential Treatment

Had dinner with CT at Fig & Olive in JP on last Saturday at 1930 hrs. It was an unpleasant experience. Perhaps, the manpower that they hired on that day was not experienced to handle the dinner crowd. When we requested the servers to check on our order, they seemed to be preoccupied with other things. It seemed to take forever to get our requests done. Tsk...tsk... the fries came after our meals were finished and even waited for a tiny plate of sauces.

Picture by Mode Attitude Culture

Another incident happened on a Sunday afternoon was attracted to Alexander McQueen scarf displayed in Pedder Red. Perhaps it's my casual attire to be blamed. Dont think the attire justify the attitude that were showered by these SAs. When I was approaching one of the two SAs who were busying chatting among themselves to ask about the price of my beloved Alexander McQueen scarf. She gave me the 'dun think you can afford this' type of reply. IMHO, the attitude of the sales personnel in those 'branded' shops should change. After all, you are just a SA working in a branded shop. Dun see a point why these SAs need to show 'attitude'. Period. Felt like these people's views were only seeing people at dog's level (roughly translated in Chinese).

Perhaps, I should stick back to my regular fastfood and normal shops that I'm familiar with. At least, I do know what to expect. I think SG should start to 'buck up' and improve their services coz the other countries will catch up SG eventually. Maybe, this is also the reason why SG has slipped her position in recent years.
