ERP

2:18 PM / 0 comments

Went down to TTSH early in the morning today to collect my medication (as arrange wif nurse) b4 heading to office....

While waiting for my turn at the Pharmcy, I saw a funny incident....

An Aunty alighted from a cab, and asked the driver to wait...while she headed to the Lobby to talk to the Receptionist...as he is busy he asked her to wait by the side for a while...

As I was sitting at the seats nearby, I heard the whole conversation...

Aunty - A
Maid - M
Receptionist - R

When the Receptionist came back...
R: Okie, Mdm how can I help?

A: I jux took a taxi here, and this is the receipt...I wan to know y my fare so expensive!!

R: Mdm, for this issue u have to get back to the taxi company for a reply, I wont b able to assist u on tis...if u wan u can make a complain via the telephone number stated on the receipt.

A: ...but he over-charge me....wat is this ERP??

R: Mdm, u call this number, they will explain to u or u can file a report...

Aunty walked aside with maid to the seat beside me...she started to mumble again to her maid.

A: How can he charge me $11 plus, its too much!!!

M: ya, mum...

A: Wat ERP??? 10 mins oso much charge...

M: ya, mum...

A: $11 so expensive, the driver shouldn't charge me the ERP mah, its only a matter of 10mins...he should wait or even off the ERP before he went through it...Why muz I paid for that thing...

M: ya, mum...

At tis point, I was thinking to myself....

HOW TO OFF THE ERP???
-Ask taxi uncle to climb up the gantry??
-Call LTA??
-Pluck out the IU gadget??

hahaha....funny rite....I simply jux cant stop laughing at it lor...imagine the Aunty keep mumbling and mumbling about dismantling the ERP!!!

Guess the next time I take a cab that needs to go thru the ERP gantry, I will tell the Uncle to 'remove' the gantry....hahhaha ^.^
