For Working adult, the researchers interviewed a female working adult named Eunice Chen, aged 23. The working adult is currently working as an accountant from nine  in the morning to late night. The purpose of interviewing the working adult is to better understand the views of recycling to the working adults.

Euncie Chen does not seem to have a postive mindset on recycyling, and thinks that it is a waste of time to do so. She commented that by introducing programmes and campaigns on recycling will encourage people to recycle however only a very small amount of them will get influenced. She thinks that singaporeans have a busy life and would not really care to spend or leave some time out just to sort the items that they do not need to recycle.
