Thoughtlessness

So it was lunch time and I got a call from one of the Asoks that they are waiting for me at the carpark downstairs to go to lunch together.

I half gasped as I instinctively looked at my watch. I totally did not realise it was lunch time already.

Anyway, I dropped what was doing and galloped down the stairs as I do not like people waiting for me.

I got to the carpark and Crown Prince's car was there and ready to move out.

Let's see.

There's an Asok in the driver's seat. Shotgun was empty as the other Asok was squeezing in a cigarette while waiting for me to show up. Crown Prince in the backseat absorbed in his ebook (he was lending us the car and so he was merely hitching a ride). Another colleague in the back seat....

.... and there.

A baby seat.

Then I sit where?

That really pissed me off.

Not because I was bumped off the car but....

DID I REALLY HAVE TO SHOW UP BEFORE SOMEONE ACTUALLY REALIZES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM IN SEATING CAPACITY?

WAS IT SOOOOO DIFFICULT TO ANTICIPATE THE PROBLEM?

REALLY?

What pissed me off was that NOBODY bothered to move a single cell of their brains.

So what happened next, was that I just told them coldly that I lost interest in joining them for lunch and walked off to the street stall outside.

I tapao-ed Fujian dumpling for a mere RMB 3.00 (SGD 0.60) and accompanied by a glass of milk from my fridge.

It was a good lunch.

I hate brainless people.

So that's that.

Had it been me in that situation where I was one of them waiting for the last person to show up and there isn't enough seat on the car. I'd gladly give up the car and offered to walk or take a cab with the last person to the lunch venue.

Now. Was it so hard?
