Why do people do things that they know are wrong, STOMPer ester wonders, after she witnessed an auntie taking the seat she had given up to a man with his baby. She says:"I was taking the train from Boon Lay to Paya Lebar around 2pm."It was non-peak so I was sitting on the priority seat nearest to the door."When the train reached City Hall, a man carrying a baby boarded the train."Upon seeing him, I stood up to offer him my seat."To my horror, the auntie on my left (also a priority seat) moved over to occupy my seat as fast as lightning and pulled her daughter who was standing to sit next to her."Despite her daughter telling her that I gave my seat to the man carrying the baby, not her, the auntie just told her that it was ok."The man with the baby was shocked and so was I, he then walked over to the other side and someone else offered him a seat."Later I overheard the auntie telling her daughter that sometimes people use their handphones to take pictures of people like her and then post on the internet."I think her behaviour is gross."Then they pretended to fall asleep, but not before the auntie popped a sweet into her mouth."Why do it when you know it is wrong?"I can't understand them."

i really wonders why Singaporeans keep doing this kind of things like not giving up their seats to needy people and snatching other people seat. some even ate on the mrt. i mean if you were really hungry,then better go to the nearest food court eat or something. why bring food and eat it on the mrt? it just shows us how some Singaporeans are so inconsiderate etc.
