Please Q...
Friday, July 28, 2006
There is a "Please Q" sign at the elevator in our office building. The first time I saw it, I didn't think people would follow the sign. Imgaine my surprise when I saw people actually forming a line in front of the elevator. It seems that the people here are more considerate than I thought. (Singaporeans never ever queue except at Singapore Pools betting outlets.)So I happily joined the queue.
When the elevator door open, people behind me went towards the elevator even before I took my first step! The question that popped up in my head was, "What is the point of the queue if you guys don't wait for the people in front of you to go into the elevator first?"
Do they even know what a queue is for???
