記得1年半以前,剛剛到了澳洲不久,一次在KFC排隊,很多的人,有3個中國留學生在我前面,他們一邊聊天一邊排隊,等了很久,排到了他們,於是他們中的一個點餐,取餐,站到了一邊兒,雖然還有兩個站在我前面,但他們沒有點餐的意思,不知道在聊什麼,這時KFC的STAFF示意我可以點餐,於是我走到櫃檯前,點了餐正在付錢,這時我旁邊的那個點過餐的男孩突然問我:「ARE YOU CHINESE?」 當時我一愣,一邊說「YES」,一邊想,他難道需要我的幫助嗎,雖然我的英語不是太好,因為我剛到澳洲,還不太適應,但我也得想法幫幫他。沒想到他的下一句話讓我差點暈過去,他說「你以後買東西不要插隊,好不好?」天啊,我排了20分鐘,最後成了插隊的了。我雖然很惱火但還是很客氣的和他理論,他表示他的另外兩位同伴還沒有點餐,我一回頭才發現那兩位還站在那裡研究要點什麼呢,原來那前20分鐘的排隊等候還沒有讓他們決定吃什麼,到了跟前才考慮。於是我表示我不知道他們沒有點餐,以為他們是一起的,並且不只我一人這樣想,那個STAFF也是這樣認為,才示意我來點餐的。但那個男孩接下來的一句話更氣人:「他(指STAFF)讓你點你也不能點。」看到他無法理喻,我不想和他吵架,那似乎是素質低的人才做的事,特別是在海外,我也不想讓鬼子看笑話,於是我轉向那個STAFF,說「THIS GENTLEMAN SAID IT IS NOT MY TURN, SO WOULD YOU MIND SERVE THEM FIRST?」天可憐見,都這個時候了我還在想著維護自己同胞的面子,我還稱他「GENTLEMAN」呢。STAFF表示已經操作,不可以更改,於是我看著那個「GENTLEMAN」,等他的反映,他沒說話,就這樣我點了餐。
my new housemate close door so heavilly all the time, I just worry about that they just want me to repair the doors so they they will feel happy that because they rent is getting some value out of it... if they slam the door in work, they will be sacked anyway.
when they came in I told them that they can share the internet for browsing and study purpose only(to keep their rent low), if they want the internet for entertaining, they have to get their own connection... it was understand and an oral agreement.... however.... they started internet gaming and visual QQ... without a single regret of breaching the agreement... I tried to accomadate them by holding my own usage.., but they just take for granted... nothing to say really!!! very sad! why chinese does not respect agreement!!!!
