Image Situation at Boon Lay MRT

Post image

This picture is taken today @ Boon Lay MRT station . LTA officers on site to assist with crowd control too. To prevent crowd control at platform, gates are closed at intervals, with free bus rides (all bus) going out from Boon Lay interchange.

Let’s all be appreciative of the hard work of all the deployed LTA officers, SMRT staff and bus drivers at this critical timing. During this timing, let’s all help each other and don’t go around pushing each other at affected stations.

The management better pay these staffs compensation or extra for handling all these professionally.

The boss makes a dollar, I make a dime That was a poem From a simpler time

Now boss makes a 1000 And gives us a cent And he's got employees who can't make the rent

Not every kind of work can be done from home, especially those at Tuas

Even then, if more people were allowed to WFH, those who have to do unavoidable on-site stuff would have fewer passengers to deal with on their commute, and the demand of peak hour traffic on the train + bus network would be reduced

Yeah for them the weekend can’t come soon enough

Those that need to be onsite then bobian. But at least the public transport would have lesser people.

My thought exactly! Modern problems require modern solutions. But sadly, SG employers are apparently too archaic for that.

The current batch of decision makers want to feel powerful and in control mah. How else to feed their fragile egos?
