I was at a fastfood restaurant trying to grab a quick bite, when I noticed a large group of students who have occupied several tables feeding and making alot of noise. Some of them had apparently finished eating, and were hanging out, waiting for their friends while they marked time texting on their phones.
The lunch crowd had not dissipated, and as the queues began to form, I went over to one of the ladies at the counter and told her about the situation (as if she didn't have eyes to see). Her reply was most shocking. In half mocking tone, she asked me how many persons were with me, so that she could then decide how to manage the overstaying customers. I told her it didn't matter if I was alone or had friends, the thing was the crowd was swelling, and as a food place, they had to manage the traffic. She gave a stupid grin, and referred the matter to her manager - a short, pubescent gal who was definitely a FT.
By this time, a gentleman who was in front of me also started complaining about the students who have treated the place as a thorough fare. He told the same lady they shouldn't be allowed to treat the restaurant as if it were some "study ground" and deprive paying customer of seats.
The manager then came forward and asked me what was the matter. I told her exactly what I had said to her colleague. She looked at me, and gave me the most appalling reply, "They also bought food earlier. I can't chase them out!" I tried to reason that the crowd was gathering, and the kids were just occupying space; another restaurant would have just told them to leave. She looked at me, as if I had a lan jiao hanging from my face. I ticked her off, and left the place, but before I did, i asked her for her name.
Instead of teaching the students something about social grace, the foreign chee by sided with them. If this is the kind of fucked up pedigree the govt welcomes time and again, then good riddance. This cuntry is going down the drain
