I am writing today to express my appreciation/gratitude for the help that I had received from an employee named Sng Siew Kang working at NTUC (Hougang Mall Outlet) – I hoped I get her name correctly.
The Story:
Today, 13 March 2023, 8ish in the morning. I quickly visited mentioned NTUC Outlet to purchase Nescafe Ready To Drink Original Chilled Coffee Can 240ml (6 Cans) and Sensodyne toothpaste.
Proceed to the self-checkout kiosks, to make payment but my card was declined (due to insufficient balance).
Called out for assistance to Mdm Sng Siew Kang, hoping for her to cancel 1 of the transactions as I have only S$7 in cash. Told her that I do not have enough money in my bank.
Decided to buy the Nescafe Can drinks and forgo the Sensodyne toothpaste.
On a separate note, I appeared very perplexed, maybe due to the shock from the insufficient balance on my card and, I’m in a hurry to get to work and is rushing to catch the bus.
Mdm Sng then said, “Never mind, I will pay for you for this Sensodyne toothpaste.”
I refused.
She said, “It’s okay.”
I am very touched by this kind gesture.
To Mdm Sng Siew Kang, Thank you very much, Thank you for your kindness!
