  • Are Singaporeans rude to our service staff? Not according to pump attendant Uncle Tay, who finds most Singaporeans friendly, the others… partial.

    Uncle Tay has my respect. Not only he doesn't need others to make him happy, he's obligated to make his customers to be happy. Uncle Tay is truly a joyful human being who lives blissfully. I wish Uncle Tay always healthy and happy.

      It's simple. Check your car driver side for the white sticker showing the recommended pressure for the front and rear tyres. Then go to the air pump machine and + or - to get to the pressure value u need. Then be sure to select car as the vehicle you're pumping. After that, unscrew the tyre cap, and insert the pump nozzle. Hold it there until you hear a beeping sound, then remove the pump nozzle. Rescrew the tyre cap. Repeat this for the other 3 tyres you got.

    We should appreciate the pump attendants more. Theyre doing a service for us and they'll definitely be replaced by self-service pumps in the future. So lets thank them and be courteous to them, because this small part of humanity and community won't last.

    That's why I tend to stay with the car while the petrol is being filled up. Mainly to play safe that the right petrol is being filled and the right amount too. Also can talk to the pump assistants sometimes.

    Over the course of time if you want to you will start to realise when you look at people in your life and the streets you are not looking at professions but the energy people radiate out of themselves. Some are just light giving entities mraning they glow and send out good vibes to the surrounding while others are just sending out gloomy energies.
    We are kind of like crystals. You just need to know what kind of crystal you are in life thats all and how you affect yourself and others while you are moving about going through your things in life.

    Its not compulsory to have pump attendants at petrol stations in many parts of the world. I am tickled sometimes when i know it is mandatory to have pump attendants in Singapore.
    Maybe they are scare the public in Singapore wont know how to use and put back the pump properly or with consideration after using it which can be a real cincern if you have seen how some of the bad drivers with lousy characters and attentiveness behave before.

      It’s a service that gas stations can provide, I wouldn’t say it’s an unnecessary job. At least it provides additional income fore retirees , an alternate to being a security guard. Gasoline cost is based on oil cost, so not likely the litre of gas will b cheaper. Pumping gas either by owner or attendant is the same so what efficiency were u referring to?
