Sp4wn Turbocharged February 2, 2015 Share February 2, 2015 if they are able to distribute the coupon fairly and help lighten the cleaner workload, then still a good program. It depends on who is sponsoring the coupon. should be a collective of all the hawkers i guess. returning tray is really not a difficult thing to do. i wont deny, in my younger days i took for granted. after studying in the states, became used to it. at first my wife was wondering why need to do it, now she just follow me and return. hopefully next generation wont take it for granted that there will always be someone else to clean up after them ... ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I return my trays and crockery MOST of the time when the facilities are available .... I only wont do it when the tray return area is full and there's no place to put my used wares. btw, just in case you all visit the food republic at the newly renovated eastpoint, its not a good idea to return your trays ... coz I saw an old grandma cleaner telling off one of the customer for return her tray .... it was something like if you return the tray, YOU should also separate the crockery and the trays .... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ender Hypersonic February 2, 2015 Share February 2, 2015 (edited) Such is the problem of the modern days rewarding system. This is like feeding the macaque. Remove the reward they turn nasty. In our time, it is the penalized system that works. Remember the 'do not litter, fine $500", works well. "NO return tray, fine $500.."

Ktglfc Hypersonic February 2, 2015 Share February 2, 2015 By using monetary rewards (in this case, coupons), it does work... however, this should only be used at the start of the campaign... The bottomline, ppl must exercise considerations and self responsibility in returning the trays on their own accord, regardless of any monetary returns... Hopefully, more and more ppl will return the trays after eating.. so that the next person that sit down and eat will have a clean table :) Let's be considerate :) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our time, it is the penalized system that works. Remember the 'do not litter, fine $500", works well. "NO return tray, fine $500.." You guys are missing the point!! The root of the problem:- THE TRAYS!!! If in the first place there's no trays, there'll be no problem. Gahmen can just ban hawkers from providing trays. Customers mus buy / bring own tray (collapsible/foldable) from NTUC Fairprice first and bring along when they go eat in hawker centres. Then you will ask "If after eating, the customers just leave the dirty plates on the able and walk away bring their own tray home, how? Same solution:- Dont provide table top!! (but provide stands/table-legs only for customers to put the own tray on top to eat their food). Result:- After eating their dishes on the own tray, the customers have to LL carry to dirty plates to the return-counter, then bring their own empty tray home.
