"My uncle, who is a bit slow, ordered plain croissants from the stall by pointing at the picture, but the counter staff insisted that he pronounce the words aloud.
"When I read out the words to him, the staff still wasn't happy.
"Then, just as we thought everything was over, and even after packing the food, the hawker took the food back and said to my uncle, 'I am not selling to you!'
"Such hawkers are bullying seniors."

No big no small.
That roti kia expect 86 years old to respect him before he returns his respect.
Whatever inconvenience that 86 year old uncle did, bear with some tolerance.
Get that uncle the french roti he wanted and make his day.
What's so difficult.

In restaurants, the waiter reads back out the orders. Not for the customer to keep on repeating his order. All boycott the young punk bakery!

They demand the elderly to pronounce the order "croissant", blaming the elderly for not being respectful, took back the food from the elderly telling the elderly "I am not selling to you!"
