Taxi Drivers Rule The World!
Or so they think.. Okay maybe just the 1 in particular who really pissed me off today.
So tired me got off work at 9plus today and wanted to take a cab back. Waited for like half an hour and no empty cabs in sight 'cos of the rain. So I call for a cab and am told I gota wait for 15mins. Okay, no choice just wait.. Then I spot an empty one and flagged for it. Hurray! NOT! Bloody taxi driver could hear me canceling the cab I just called for and after I hung up, guess what he said?
"Miss, you mean you book cab then you cancel ah? How can you do that? That's very rude (it's inconsiderate you moron). You know now diesel very expensive? When a taxi confirm booking means he will rush to the place to pick you up. Then you just cancel like that, you must be patient and wait what."
At this point I'm already damn irritated.
"You must also understand that people work the whole day and are tired okay. I waited for at least half an hour (plus it was drizzling for a good 15mins) and still couldn't get a cab of course when I see an empty cab I'll get on and cancel my booking right."
"No, cannot. You still must be patient and wait what. How can you just cancel like tat."
"I waited for at least half an hour okay, and I'm damn tired. What do you want me to do now? Get off the cab?"
He then carries on blabbering about how I still have to wait.. and that service industry is two way, if I have to wait so long for a taxi I called then I should call and complain (sure, you think everyone so free, only think of complaining is it? and being put on hold for very long on the phone is very fun is it?) Then he tells me about another customer who booked his cab and didn't dare take a cab that came earlier.
What sia! Naggy and freaking think he damn smart and I'm stupid and he rules the world just 'cos he's a taxi driver. What kind of service industry is that when I get told off for getting into a cab. All I wanted to do is get home 'cos I'm damn tired, if it was any other day when I had all the time in the world and wasn't that tired, of course I'd wait. Moron who only got a 1 track mind and wants to be some hero.
And then you know what he tells me when we were getting off the highway?
"Miss, next time be smart lah (wah lau, freaking think I stupid again lah. Argh!) don't call Comfort. People always forgot the smaller companies like us. Next time raining call SMRT, sure can get through."
With a shit attitude like yours, do you think I'll be calling your company? Sheesh.
I understand what he means about how a taxi driver may feel if someone were to cancel a booking (I already knew that before you told me, Mr Smart Aleck who thinks I'm dumb), and I'm sorry I did that, but don't I have the right to cancel a cab no matter what the reason may be? What if I was rushing to the hospital or something. This is just full of shit lah. HE is just full of shit.
I have half the mind to write in to SMRT and complain about this crap taxi driver, but no, I won't stoop to his level and be an idiot. It's not worth the effort. Tassha, be gracious.
Damn. Spoil my whole evening lah. Idiot.
Seriously!
