About the GrumpyQueen


A.K.A Gatekeeper

I love food, don't deprive me of it.

I'm not Princess, I'm Queen

I can be quite grumpy and when I am, I hide here, my dungeon for reflections, ramblings and ranting.

Whatever I write are opinions, and may not be the whole truth. Do not read it like the Gospel.

I hate as vehemently as I love
I already know I'm crazy, be my friend, it's safer

Different is not bad, just not the same as the rest

If you don't like me, it's probably mutual
But I'm nice, really :p

Toasts, eggs and coffee


Damn these cheena loudspeakers!

Today, I went to some coffee shop intending to get a nice breakfast. Guess who pissed me off?!

The one selling the damn coffee toast la! Stupid cheena woman SHOUTED at me!!!

This was what happened...

Me, speaking in Mandarin: "Give me a butter toast set."

She, also in Mandarin: "What you want?"

Me: "Errm...butter toast set?"

She: "YA WHAT YOU WANT IN THE SET LA?!"

By now, I'm already quite pissed 'cos I just hate being shouted at so early on a Sat morning. And what do you mean what I want? Didn't I just tell you, stupid woman?!

Me: "I want a butter toast, eggs and..."

She: "WHAT YOU WANT, WHAT DRINK YOU WANT?!"

Say so la! You wanna know what drink I want just ask me what drink I want in the set but I'm telling you I want a butter toast, not some kaya butter toast! And what did she do?

I GOT A KAYA BUTTER TOAST INSTEAD OF MY BUTTER TOAST!

Did this cheena auntie listen to my order? No, all she was interested in was my DRINK. And not like their kaya was anything to shout about. Because if it was good, I would have shut up and enjoyed it but it was horribly sweet! I suspect it was a conspiracy to give me diabetes!

And that's not all I tell ya...

After she got my order, I was shoved to the other side to collect my order. Did she tell me nicely to wait at the other end? Was there a sign telling customers to wait at a certain spot for their orders? NO!!!

All I got was a loud and irritated "you wait there!"

Harlow?! You think your stupid coffeeshop damn big and famous is it? Wah lao so everyone must know what to do, what's the system like is it?

Like in Ya Kun, you might get the eggs and coffee first and the bread a little later 'cos they need to toast it right? Well, I don't see them shouting at me saying, "you sit there!" They would tell you politely that they'll bring the bread to you, you can wait at your seat with a number tag.

And what's the point of shouting at me anyway? There were not that many customers to start with!

My sis was saying, if they continue shouting at all their customers, one day no one will buy from them, then they'll realise the price of shouting at their customers. $2.10 for every customer you shout at...

To be fair, the uncle that gave me my order was quite sweet, was telling me to be careful 'cos the tray was quite heavy. But that nice uncle doesn't take orders and the fierce cheena auntie would have scared all the customers away with her shoutings and soon this nice uncle will be out of job.

This time, I'll swallow the horrible kaya butter toast. The next time I'd make very sure I get my damn butter toast or somebody's gonna die!

Pay $2.10 to get shouted at, what kinda of stupid logic is this?! Pay peanuts and get monkeys la! Throw a stone and we'd be sure to hit one of these monkeys. Maybe I should just kill the dumbos who threw the peanuts with a canon to restore world peace.
