Aiyo...

Tian ah... After a great CWPM, I ended my cab ride in such an unhappy way. The driver was ridiculous... Over a super small matter, such as asking him to press "send" on the screen to send the printing of the receipt, he got offended and upset that we tried to teach him what to do. He muz reali have a bad day and a worse day after meeting us. Cos Vic and his bro got upset that the cab driver reacted that way. They looked at his car plate number and got off the cab and then looked at the plate number again from the front.


The driver drove off and then turned back again! He got off the cab and asked us why we muz look at his plate number from the front and not from the back. Ridiculous right. Haiz... It's just a ride. I dun ever have to meet him again, why do i need to antagonize in an arguement. I can just complain online. Dun understand.


How? Anyone want to comment? If it were you, will you antagonize/challenge that bad attitude so upfront?

wah... ridiculous lah! usually cab drivers will try to keep their temper in check no matter how pissed off, cos they're afraid of being complained. This one, obviously not scared!

whenever i encounter any bad attitude taxi drivers, i will tell myself to complain about him. but in the end i never do so. part of me is thinking if i complain about him, i may cause him to lose his job. maybe the driver really had a bad day for all we know. driving on the road for the whole day is not easy. requires a lot of concentration and they have their fair share of ridiculous customers too. just another ride lor...

put yourself in his shoes and think about the possibilities of why he reacted in that rude way. on the whole, he is still wrong because he should not vent his anger on you guys (i assume) but do be understanding. forgive.. and forget.

Haiz. I dunno why i was so bothered. I couldn't reali get to sleep till 4am leh. Aiyo. But i insomia maybe cos of my kopi-o at 1am la. Haha. But I reali reali feel that cab driver very ridiculous. He even said that we were disgusting by looking at his plate number from the front. I hope I never see him ever again. And of course, I think i must get a driving license soon. Hee hee.

Hey I know what U guys are talking about. I encountered a cab driver before that had really bad attitude. I just mentioned something like this route he was taking might be longer, and he got so antagonistic. So I told him politely he need not be like that, and pls be more courteous and he got even more angry. He went on & on saying that my attitude was bad throughout the whole ride. Goodness. When I kind of like commented I may just want to "feedback" about him, he got even more fired off! HAHA. Yeah, Yvonne you can get a license, surely will 1st time pass and less than 10 pts too! *grins*
