Kiasu People

I just got back from KL taking an AirAsia Flight. The flight was delayed. AA did text me to inform that the flight will be delayed for 30 minutes but no reason stated. The flight departure time was at 5:15pm.

I checked in and went into the boarding place at 4pm as I wanted to surf the Internet. However, I was amazed that people started q-ing at 4pm. All because one lady got up and stood at the q. Everyone else joined in and there were about 40 or more q-ing. People who came join in.

My goodness! I looked outside, the airplane hasn’t even arrived. Anyway I sat down with my notebook, surfing and downloading TVB series. Yeap I am chasing The Gem Of Life and on Episode 50 now.

At 5pm, still no sign of the airplane. Poor people, they stood there for 1 hour. Look as though they were punished by the teacher for being kiasu. Announcement came stating the flight will be delayed until further notice. 70% of the people q-ing sat down. 30% still q-ing.

At 5:45pm, this was a very strange one, the announcer said the flight will be delayed until 6:30pm. 5 seconds later, he came on to ask us to q and board the plane. I am really confused. Anyway I stood up and q. Within 5 mins, I was on the plane. Home Sweet Home!
