The Boys' Brigade (BB) Vesper

Great God who knowest all our needs,
Bless Thee our watch, and guard our sleep,
Forgive our sins of thoughts and deeds,
And in Thy peace Thy servants keep.

We thank Thee for the day that's done,
We trust Thee for the days to be,
Thy Love we learn in Christ Thy Son,
O may we all Thy glory see!

Amen.

Horrible experience..

My family and I had an awfully horrible experience at Teck Ghee market hawker centre during dinner. I really thank my wife for spotting it before I did, almost paid for the food that was served to us. This has to do with a western food hawker stall where we ordered a plate of chicken nuggets for my children, as they loved nuggets lots. So what happened was, my wife saw one of the hawker stall helper dropped two pieces of nuggets from the plate to the hawker centre floor only to quickly pick it up and came over to our table and asked for money. Unknown to him, my wife saw everything from nuggets falling to the floor and him picking up two pieces of nuggets and put back to the same plate that was served. So when I almost paid the dirty guy, my wife raised her voice and said that the nuggets dropped on the floor. But the helper replied that its the chilli packets that dropped and not the nuggets. My wife insisted that she saw with her own eyes that two nuggets fell on the floor and he picked up with his dirty hand (we sat on the table directly next to the stall!). In reply, he said, "So do you want or not? Want or not? Don't want ah?" OFCOURSE WE DON'T WANT IT!
What angered us was that he lied about not dropping the nuggets and insisted that the chilli packets dropped. Well, we refused to pay and decided to leave the place asap. Worst of all, as we were leaving, they asked us again if we still want nuggets (they refried the plate of nuggets and wanted to serve us back). Oh my goodness!
So, I want to urge you reading this to be very careful how our dear hawkers handle our food. I condemn the act, but I want to emphasise that not all hawkers are like that. This one experience is the very first I have encountered in my entire 34 years of existance.

Till then, have a sweet and wonderful time with your families. =)
