Quick service

I took notice when the cendol seller at a stall that I went to some time ago, packed my order really really quick, even though there is no one else queuing behind me. What that made me feel, is that my time is valuable, and he’s not wasting it by taking his own sweet time. While the truth may just be that he’s used to that kind of speed, I still appreciate such gesture a lot.

The second time I went to his cendol stall, he was just as quick, if not quicker, and this time, I figured I should acknowledge it. “Sangat cepat,” I said (“That’s really fast.”). He smiled.
