Power sockets in library all sealed up: How come public can't use them?

[Latka]

Dis stomper damn cartoon lah.

[WTF]

According to her argument, then why we need to pay for water at MSCP's washing bay...

 

As we often heard it NS, it's a privilege not an entitlement.

[Subutai]

Mentality is seriously wrong for some stompers.

 

They think everything exists for their sake. Very sia suay.

My days as a student time was all paper and pencils, jotterbooks and photocopier. No such fanciful things such as tablets and laptops and charging of handphones.

I don't find anything wrong with sealed up power point.

 

Just charge your battery full or bring a spare one before going to the library if all the power point are sealed.

I notice that people using smartphones, especially iPhones, need to charge them all the time. Go everywhere also look for power socket.

 

I think the electricity bill for the library look quite shocking hence they lock up the sockets.

 

Actually it's a smart idea to have some coin-operated gadget... i.e. "sell" the electricity and make a profit. Seriously, the public library is missing out. Selling the electricity earns them spare cash, and also minimises abuse.

My days as a student, have to use slide rule. No calculator was available.

But who want to learn to use slide rule anymore?

Unless no more electrical power is available.

Sg use to have such m/c to charge hp, if you really desperate can alway go to the handphone shop to charge at a fee.

unlike most gahment run civil service, i think nlb is one of the best/ well managed stat board, or whatever board u call it.

 

I think some users had been abusing the goodwill of nlb. Sealing up the power sockets is kind of a typical gahment style - pragmatic, immediate, effective. But I do think charging them via coin slot/transitlink is a reasonable scheme, similar to photocopy services in nlb.

[SimonTan]

Seal up so that after three hours battery flat, have to go home.

If not the entire coffee bean or library will be full of cheap skate hoggers.

 

Maybe someone will bring a backpack full of dry cells, and charge the battery at the library! Nothing is free.

给是人情，不给是道理！

 

But many places also have power socket available, like starbucks
