After reading the explanation of the operator, he should have sold the meal without a drink. 

And if the customer wants a drink, charge $1.50 for the drink in the takeaway cup. 😂

Up to the customer to want anot. 

Seriously, the operator asked upfront if its OK to pay 10¢ for the takeaway cup and customer said OK. Then kpkb on social media and to score sympathy votes, mentioned there were 2 others who oso complained. 

Think they could all just open mouth and ask for drink to be poured directly into mouth and save the 10¢.

😂😂😂😂 Yada-ing. Bro @Mercs, what say you? Unfair anot? 🤭 You  have a good and enjoyable weekend. Take care and thanks again for faithfully sharing 👍

Stay safe 

Cheers

The operator already said - sink faulty, takeaway cup larger vol more coffee, also have asked in advance and customer agreed to it.

So 'unfair or not'? This one simple, we talking about 10¢, I repeat again just 10¢, the consumer always got choice, if feel unfair simple just dun buy or patronise, put on social media and complain = waste time and waste of brain cells, too free too much time nothing better to do go watch some porn to shiok shiok. 🤣

That said, operator also can just absorb the 10¢ small as it's their sink faulty,  just one off occurrence even 500 customers for that day absorb amount just $50 small money won't go bankrupt.

 

The other day I went Bugis Street and bought a hat, sales lady ask me if need a bag for it boss say need to charge 20¢ more I was like huh? My options are -1)dun buy walk away 2)pay the extra 20¢ for the small plastic bag or 3)only buy the hat. I took option 3 paid for the hat fold it and put inside pocket. 🤣🤣🤣

😂😂 Fair lah. Got sign say clearly for EXTRA packet of chilli sauce, pay 10¢. 

Tbh, I have not come across, yet, such 10¢ more stalls. The customer should ask seller, I no take 2 packets chilli sauce, return me 20¢ pls. 

"Reason more than pork lard". Its not the 10¢ yada yada but the principle, will be a common excuse or reason used for the kpkb. 

Either pay or dun take extra chilli sauce or stop buying from this stall.

One always has a choice.

Otherwise, go home use own chilli sauce. I recommend Sin Sin Garlic chilli sauce 👍🤣

No one open a business to lose or not make money unless its for charity or paper laundry, which is another story. 

Bro @Mercs, what say you? Fair anot? 

Keep well and stay safe. Always happy to read your posts. 

Cheers

'Fair anot?' This one we're going down a slippery slope, if this is fine future anything also can charge extra, though granted got signage to inform customers and they got choice to patronise or not. Yes, not charity but do we want hawkers to charge extra for everything? Maybe work it into the menu price a more probable solution to avoid misunderstanding. - "Its not the 10¢ yada yada but the principle"

 

Bro @PSP415 take care and be well, always happy to chat with you. 🙂

Cheers

Margaret drive hc western food? No say which stall. But looking at the picture, maybe this stall i buy from them one time before. Their western food portion is quite small and not nice de. So even they no charge for taking extra packet chilli and i can take 10 packets for free, i also would not buy from them again.
