MRT courtesy

The MRT courtesy jingle has been going on for some time now. Makes me wonder if the foreign workers know what it is all abt.
But then, if the locals do not set a good example, how are the foreigners going to follow?

That day, a foreigner-looking indian was seated in the MRT. A lady boarded the train with her little kid. He stood up without hesitation and gave up the seat to the little kid.
I was right beside him. Shamefully, I was so engrossed with my mobile phone I did not even know someone else who needed the seat more was standing right in front.
*slaps myself*

Another time, a passenger in front of me stood up and alighted from the train, leaving an empty seat right in front of me. With a huge gym bag and shoes in my hands, I was kind of glad that I have such luck and started to inch towards the empty seat.
Suddenly, one lady in her 50s knocked into me from behind (where my tattoo wound was!) and grabbed the empty seat in front of me.
I was speechless (and in slight pain). I glared at her but quickly stopped since she is an elderly... she probably was tired and needed the seat more. Oh well.
next stop... xxx interchange...
A minute later, she stood up and quickly inched her way out.
OH MY GOD. She banged into me just to get that empty seat for ONE FUCKING STOP?!
*boils*

A recent most disgusting act I have encountered at my usual station was committed by a foreign worker (presumably since he spoke in mainland China accent and dressed like one... but who knows, he could be an uncouth professional!)
I was standing abt 2m away from him, waiting for the train to arrive.
Suddenly he went, "...kar puuuuiiii....! First time in my whole life I see a spit fly so far.
What's more, he did it quite effortlessly.
I felt my stomach churn. My immediate reaction was to escape.
I ran a 3m away from him.
He saw and looked surprised. Then he lowered his head in embarrassment.
I did not even board the same train as him.
