Ok this is my 2nd time posting. I totally hated the way i wrote this previously, so yup its gone down the bin. As i was saying, i had lunch with my parents at the Amara, a hotel cum shopping arcade beside Tanjong Pagar MRT.
The food court was packed. Hell. Finding a seat was a chore. Ok we found one anyway. or we THOUGHT that we had. 2 women came over with their food trays claiming that our seats was THEIRS. According to her, a crumpled, empty packet of tissue sitting clasped under a leftover soup bowl was the evidence. We are nice people so we didn't bother to fire back, with the fact that the packet was probably left behind by previous patrons. The neighbouring table got freed up anyway.
What hit me was how a simple packet of tissue could be used to mark out one's territory in a food court. A powerful weapon in the meal centres of Singapore. Nonetheless, an awful practice of ugly Singaporeans.
