We’ve been working in the client office this week and we always ride a cab. We’re actually used to riding the taxi in going to client offices but this week had been quite… weird. That’s because the taxi drivers were weird. Yung isa, sobrang daldal! Hindi ko malaman kung matutuwa ako or maiinis ako. First nagkwento siya about the Malaysian guy na nasakay niya prior to us, who apparently, doesn’t like the Philippines, and maybe even the Filipinos. Feeling daw kasi nating mga Pilipino, mayayaman lahat ng expats na nandito or something. Basta, yun lang ang sinabi nung driver. Pero hindi pa siya natapos magkwento dun. As in lahat na yata ng Makita niyang tao e may pintas at comment siya, which sometimes is uncalled for. Yung parang, kung wala kang masasabing maayos at magmumura ka lang in commenting on something, better keep your mouth shut.
That driver we encountered when we were on the way back to the office. Well, the morning, we got another “bizarre” taxi driver! Eto naman, e bad… as in bad… proud pa niyang sinabi na hindi na daw niya binabalik ang mga gamit na naiiwanan sa taxi niya. Yung isang Chinese guy nga dawn a nasakay niya, naiwan yata ang wallet na may money and credit cards, aba, pinakita pa samin at tinanong kung pwede pa daw niya magamit yun! Grabe diba? Sabi niya, mukhang mayaman naman daw kasi dahil P10,000 ang laman ng wallet at malamang, thank you lang daw ang sasabihin, wala man lang reward. To top it all, nagpapatalbugan pa daw sila ng ibang taxi drivers ng mga gamit at cellphones na nakukuha nilang naiiwan ng mga pasahero.
How’s that for a ride? Buti na lang sa Jupiter lang ang client office!
