Recap

A fight broke out among a group of middle-aged people at an unspecified event purportedly at Macpherson, according to a netizen.

The short-haired auntie, who was wearing red, was seen in the video picking up a chair and throwing it at the other auntie’s face, who was sitting down on a seat.

The auntie, who was wearing black, then got up and picked up a chair, and swung it at her aggressor, as the two came to blows – the black shirt auntie was seen tussling with the red shirt auntie and hitting her on the face

Another man wearing a black shirt then jumped into the fray and socked the red-shirted auntie in the face multiple times.

Several onlookers then stepped in to break up the fight, as the red-shirt auntie was seen bleeding profusely on her face.

Arrested

Three people, including a 69-year-old man, a 65-year-old woman and another 71-year-old woman were reportedly arrested on the spot following the fracas.

The police are investigating the incident and the 71-year-old woman was conveyed to hospital.

Auntie’s side of the story

The short-haired auntie who was seen in a viral video throwing a chair at another woman before getting socked in the face repeatedly by another man, has since come forward with her side of the story.

The fight happened at a Getai at Lor Koo Chye Sheng Hong Temple Association, located at 15 Arumugam Road, on 10 August.

The short-haired auntie told media outlets that she reserved a seat for her friend at the Getai, but the couple in the video then arrived and threw away a cup of coffee and bun that was left on the seat, before sitting down.

She added that she received 2 stitches on her face and is adamant that she has done nothing wrong.

However, several netizens who purportedly know her said that she regularly chopes seats when she’s not supposed to.

SCALPERS SELLING SOLD-OUT DOTA 2 TICKETS AT 11X ORIGINAL PRICE, UP TO $5.5K

The Dota 2 world championship tournament, The International 11 (TI11) is set to be held in Singapore from 30 October to 30 October, and it will see the top 16 teams in the world competing in the competition.

Tickets for the single day of the Playoff rounds, which will be held at Suntec, are priced at $88; while the tickets for the Grand Finals at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, are priced at $498 for two days.

However, the tickets were apparently sold out within an hour of the tickets going live, presumably because of scalpers scooping up the tickets.

The scalpers then took to Carousell to sell their tickets, marking the prices up to almost 11 times the original price, with one scalper even selling it for $5,500.

Netizens’ response to scalpers

I didn’t get tickets to TI.

Like many of you posting here, I couldn’t get tickets to TI. I woke up really early, opened up the ticketmaster website first thing and got into queue. Made myself some coffee while I waited. So damn excited. I was sure I’d be able to get them because I had heard good things about the queue system last time and how it was designed to be fair.

When its my turn, the page opens up and I see the first four days are already sold out. No problem, I’d be happy to get tickets just to the finals only. I click to pick my seat and just in that little time, those are sold out as well. I can’t believe it.

I was willing to put in the $850~ for all 6 days of the event. That is not a small amount of money for me. In fact, it’s almost equal to my one month’s salary. Add the cost of plane tickets and staying there for almost 2 weeks, that comes out to more than double of that. So even though it’s a lot, I had saved up because it would have been my first TI.

I’d been struggling financially for the last several years, so not like I ever had the chance to go to a TI in an EU country before. But now that TI is taking place in a SEA country, and I’m doing better money wise, I had the courage to dream. I had a dream, and it was crushed within minutes.

Sorry to sound so melodramatic, but this was a big deal to me. I’ve only travelled outside my country once before, and this would have been my first time travelling solo. Dota 2 is such a big part of my life, and going to TI is top of my bucket list.

Guess it’s staying on that list for a bit longer.

he chased me all the way to punggol npc, where he suddenly became the good person who wanted to report my reckless driving.”

Netizens’ comments

  • High speed overtaking in merging lane. Inconsiderate cam driver playing innocent victim. Send the before video to traffic police to let them decide. There is only one truth. Certainly you are not telling the truth.
  • Can you show us the earlier video that how did you irritate him so as he was so upset on you?
  • Thank you for a nice censored. The most important part, sped and cut into me at merging lane.
  • clever editing. why never include the footage before the altercation?
  • Obvious the cam car fault. merging Lane still speedup and cut from behind. Dangerous driving. When merging lane always give way to car infront. Good evidence for police to investigate on cam car

The Shanghai IKEA Xuhui store was temporarily closed on the evening of the 13th, and many consumers managed to break through the security blockade and forcibly leave the store.

IKEA Xuhui store in Shanghai suddenly closed the entrance and exit yesterday evening.

Chinese social media reported that the IKEA store in Xuhui District in central Shanghai broadcasted yesterday evening that it has received a request from the authorities to lock down the store, and a large number of customers pushed the guards who were blocking the exit.

Lock customers in store to prevent Covid

The reason for the lockdown is that the store has footprints of COVID-19 patients. Shanghai IKEA customer service said that the Xuhui store is closed today due to epidemic prevention measures.

The Shanghai Municipal Government responded that there are foreigners in Xuhui District who have abnormal nucleic acid test results, and that there are close contacts in the store, and relevant areas and personnel must be investigated and controlled.

According to videos and posts posted by Chinese netizens on Weibo, the manager of the IKEA store in Shanghai’s Xuhui District suddenly broadcast that after receiving a notice from the authorities, people will stop entering and leaving immediately, and a large number of people in the store move quickly towards the exit. , some managed to leave before the gates closed, others looked at each other through the glass door.

Another clip shows that when the store guards worked together to close an iron door, more and more people were pushing on the other side of the door, and people screamed from time to time.

Several people in the guard area could not resist the force which caused the iron door to open. The crowd kept pouring out, and the guards who were overwhelmed almost fell.

Finally, after a wave of people swarmed out, the iron gate was closed once again by the guards from the outside.

PART TIMER GOT FIRED AFTER WORKING 1 DAY, EMPLOYER REFUSES TO GIVE HIM HIS SALARY

0

Employer is ignoring my messages regarding my pay.

Hello everyone! I need some advice on what I should do or can do; the employer ignores my messages when I ask him when I would be paid.

For context, I am a teenager, and I found this job that pays decently (direct-hire, no contract, Mon-Fri). However, after working for 1 day (Friday), I got fired 2 days later (Sunday).

The termination was very sudden and without explanation, and it all seemed like they decided to fire me after I asked questions regarding my pay.

This was after I realized that they never even asked for my bank details, address & emergency contacts. So I decided to message them about it on Sunday morning, but they never responded.

However, another person messaged me at 10 pm saying, “We won’t be continuing any work schedule for you,” and when I asked if I did anything wrong, he just said, “No, just not continuing.”

When I asked him if I would get paid, he just told me to message the same guy. But he haven’t responded to my messages.

So what should I do now?

Edit: So I called MOM, and basically, they said there was nothing they could do as I did not sign any contract with the employer or have any written agreement, even though I have the text messages confirming that I was hired.

(For anyone reading this, if you are working part time and have no written agreement with your employer, you are NOT covered by the employment act. However you can try your luck to retrieve your salary by booking an appointment at the TADM website.)

MAN PAID $1K FOR AIRCON SERVICING, CONTRACTOR GOES MIA WITH HIS MONEY

0

Facebook user Stanlon Tan, shared how he paid $1,000 for aircon servicing with an aircon contractor that he got acquainted with ears ago.

However, the aircon contractor asked him for the full payment, saying that the supplier needs the full deposit, which Tan then paid.

The aircon contractor then allegedly always doesn’t show up for the scheduled servicing and when Tan asked for a refund, the aircon contractor would keep postponing it.

Tan said “now ask for refund also rubber band, push blame to supplier fault, blah / every day say tomorrow, don’t know is it last time I fail to study my maths properly, his “tomorrow = days = week = still going”

Here is what he said

Not complaining, but just beware not to engage him for any aircon servicing.

Got acquainted with him when he was still with Gain City 6-7 years ago during our home new installation.

I may be fool to trust him to give him full amount payment for new aircon unit replacement this time cause he said supplier need full deposit.

Service scheduled always rubber band, even planned 1 week or 1 month also will not turn up or say forgot then postpone

Pissed and sensed something wrong, now ask for refund also rubber band, push blame to supplier fault blah / every day say tomorrow >> don’t know is it last time I fail to study my maths properly, his “tomorrow = days = week = still going”

Any expert to advise, any thing else can be done than report police / CASE.

Known Name: *name redacted*

If this is your friend, please tell him return my $1000

DELIVERY RIDER RECEIVED PRANK ORDERS, TRAVELLED ALL THE WAY TO “CUSTOMER” FOR NOTHING

0

Recently, there’s been a recent influx of Delivery Pranks on us Food Delivery riders.

Since the start of January, I’ve been on the receiving end of 3 different prank orders around Sengkang, Punggol and Hougang- in which 2 of them came at a time when I had to cycle through heavy downpours during the first half of the month’s cold and rainy season.

Earlier today, I received my 3rd prank order and I had to wait for 30 minutes with 3/4 other Panda Riders at a corridor as Foodpanda’s absolutely garbage Customer Service has to sort things out. One panda rider was an amputee on his right leg on his PMA. This 3rd incident was my breaking point.

Prank orders are done when somebody provides a non-existent unit number and orders through cash.

So why is it an issue for us? One could take the food home and go. Well, first of all, for cash orders, we would have to pay the amount that we received back to Grab/Foodpanda through a digital transaction. So in this case, had we just left with the food without contacting CS to cancel the order, we would be paying for something that we don’t even want. For my unfortunate experience today, I was left with my hands clasped around a plastic bag filled with $75 worth of Unhalal food that I can’t eat.

Please la. Have some compassion. I had to spend an hour of my life going to a restaurant, waiting for food and delivering only to find out that some CB decided it’s funny to play with people’s livelihoods. I’m lucky enough to still be a student and just doing this food delivery thing as a part time job to supplement my student life, but when I see people like the aforementioned amputee having to go through great lengths and struggles to deliver food only to be greeted by this nonsense, I get mad.

Not only does this nonsense affect the riders, it definitely affects the restaurants as well because Panda/Grab won’t pay them for the meals. All because Panda/Grab receive nothing from the prank. They are the ones who suffer the most in this because of such unthoughtful and despicable ‘pranks’. Essentially, they make food for nothing.

GRABFOOD RIDER KENA DELIVERY ORDER TO THE MIDDLE OF THE FOREST DURING 7TH MONTH

A GrabFood rider shared how he received an order to be sent into the middle of the forest a few days ago, leaving the rider confused.

Here is what he said

Speaking about GPS locations on customers and merchants

This also happened last night at past 11pm on this stack of 2 orders.

Was in the midst of delivery when receiving this and upon looking at the pins, was really scratching my head at the pin in the green area…

Thankfully, the customer contacted via chat and gave me his correct address before glitch app chat cut in

Quickly screenshot his address too

I was thinking if can’t get hold customer or CS gonna DEFINITELY cancel this job!!!

Netizens’ comments

  • This month need to be extra careful lor. Need burn and give lots of prayers
