Sometimes the Chinese just irks me

I used to have very good impression of the Mainland Chinese, they were like hardworking, hungry for success, blah blah blah.

My contacts with the Chinese have increased tremendously given their presence in Singapore, I mean: they are everywhere! 

On one occasion, I was in a bus towards Suntec City, a Chinese national was stand next to me near the door, when the bus stopped to pick up passenger, the back door was opened and this China man conveniently SPAT out of the bus, one mouthful of “it”. I was standing next to him. 

Next, I was strolling down Waterloo Street one day, I dropped by one of the stalls which I always patronize for my drinks. I was charged $1.20 per drink by the Singapore boss usually, it must have been an unlucky day for me, that boss wasn’t around when I was there. A Chinese lady served me a drink and charged me $1.80 for it. The price really fluctuates so fast within weeks. I was really thirsty that moment so I have choice but to pay her. The price was reverted to $1.20 few weeks later when the Singapore boss served me.

My guess: dishonesty in play. Chopping me like a carrot.

There are too many for me list, like...talking loudly on the phone, squatting in the train, cutting corners....

I don’t think that’s discrimination. Simply wrote what I have experienced.
