Teacher-to-be and bf order drinks at bar, leaves and gives us the bill!
Is this what our future educators are going to be, wonders a STOMPer, who was so furious that this happened that he lodged a police report.
The STOMPer had attached the reports to his email to STOMP about the incident, which allegedly took place on Feb 28 this year, where he met up with a friend he made via Facebook, and was made to pick up the tab after his 'friend' disappeared.
He said, in his police report:
"I was at the Long Bar on Feb 28 and had a drink with Y, together with four of her friends whom I have not met before.
"There were three males and two females."
According to the STOMPer, there already were several drinks on the table which his friend's party ordered before his arrival. The bill, he said, came up to $213.05.
He added that he had no idea who ordered the drinks, and said the group was there chatting.
"After 20 minutes two of the girls left. They claimed they wanted to go to the toilet. After five minutes I went outside the pub to answer a call.
"When I returned I only saw a guy, who I believe is Y's boyfriend. The other two males had gone to grab some food. After a while, the guy left and claimed that he had a call.
"As such, I messaged Y asking where she was and she said she was at East Shore Hospital as her friend was unwell.
"I waited for about half an hour but no one came back. I then met up with the management to settle the payment. Y claims that one of her male friends is a regular customer of the pub but when I checked with the staff, they said they had no idea who these are.
"I tried to call Y several times but to no avail."
The STOMPer told STOMP he had contacted the NIE about this issue, and added:
"This the future of our future educators? We have already informed NIE and told them we will be exposing Y in the media if it's our last resort.
"I appreciate the fact that they have contacted her to advise her to settle this matter ASAP, but I'm sure there's more they can do. Afterall, this concerns the reputation of NIE and our future educators, no less."
