A shocked an humiliated bus 'auntie' quit her job in a huff, after suffering a scolding by a primary school pupil from a prestigious school.
The boy called her "a beggar" and "poor", in front of the other pupils on the bus, and even announced that it was his mother who told him that.
Madam Huang, 61, who accompanies students on their ride in the school bus, tendered her resignation as she could not bear the injustice and humilation of being 'bullied' by a primary school pupil at her age.
Madam Huang contacted the Shin Min Daily News to complain about her treatment at the hands of the 10-year-old.
She told the reporter that had joined the transport company which provided school bus services two years ago - her role was to accompany the bus driver on his route to pick students up from their homes.
Madam Huang said there was a Primary 3 pupil who was particularly mischievous, and often ran around on the bus and behaved in an unruly manner. His antics gave her and the driver a headache, said Madam Huang.
"What if he suffers a fall on the bus?", said Madam Huang, who always asked that he sit right behind the driver's seat so she could keep a watch over him, but the boy refused.
Madam Huang said she had tried complaining to his mother about the boy's behaviour, but the mother did not apologise or promise to take him in hand.
Instead, she complained that Madam Huang was the one that was creating trouble for her son.
In April, when the boy refused to sit down and behave on board the bus, Madam Huang scolded him, but got a rude shock when he retorted: "You are a beggar, poor, no money."
Madam Huang said the driver, who had heard what he said, was taken aback by the boy's outburst as well, and questioned the boy.
The boy said his mother had told him that, and again repeated his insults.
Madam Huang said she felt humiliated, but could do nothing.

We cannot always say that it is juat a small kid. Then the small kid will grow up bully poor people if no one guide him right?She should not resign, but instead report this to the school office manager and principal or any staff that can handle this issue.
Called up her parents and demand an apology from her and her son.
Last resort, terminate her son from taking the school bus citing that her son is uncontrollable and too naughty.
She should not resign due to that brat.

I hope the school bus operator asked her to return to work.
But terminate that boy from taking the school bus.
As stated that the boy running around the bus, the bus operator should report this to school office manager or relevant authority and inform the boy parents they will not take responsibility if any mishap happen to his mischievous brat!
Good thing that the bus worker did not slap him or take physical action against that boy.
That boy deserve to be counsel and repriminded for being too naughty.
Parade square warning in from of the school is another option.
