Audio: SMRT driver offers droll advice in place of regular station announcement

Earlier today, Yahoo Singapore shared an audio clip contributed by commuter Laurane Lim, featuring the voice of the man driving the MRT on the North-South Line towards Jurong East. 

On a morning where the rain was heavy and the trains more packed and sleepier than usual, the driver’s improvisation of the regular safety reminders and “next stop” announcements was a welcome change. 

“If you’re planning to leave anything behind, please make sure it’s something I can either use or sell. Otherwise, please remember to take all your belongings with you,” he joked. 

He also offered some productivity advice: “Since it’s a Thursday today, what you do today will determine whether tomorrow will be a ‘thank goodness it’s Friday’ or ‘oh goodness, it’s Friday’.”
