Toxic Mrt Culture

The culture in our MRT needs to be seriously changed. It has been full of nothing but kiasuness, impatient, rude, self centered and entitledness.

Starting with the MRT gantries. There are people who will always have card clash errors, insufficient funds error and will always keep standing at the same gantry trying to tap while being inconsiderate and oblivious to others behind them.

Then there will also be the toxic impatient people behind who will give the annoying look and make annoyed impatient noises at them, causing them to panic and creating this stressful culture.

Now onto queueing up for the trains. There will be kiasu people who blatantly cuts the queue to enter the train. As well as people who stands right in front of the door to rush into the train when the doors open before others have a chance to exit.

And finally within the trains itself. The way people fight for seats is as if they are running for Olympic gold. Then there will be the cats who stand extremely close to the seats while making people very uncomfortable, and waiting to pounce on an empty seat the moment they see one.

When an elderly or a pregnant lady boards, these people would act as though they were sleeping and do not bother. This problem is worst on Sundays especially with a particular group of people who always hoards the reserved seats.

Finally there will be the obnoxious people who do not know personal boundaries and spread their legs wide open, rubbing them against you
