Cabbie's Christmas nightmare


Saw this news.
Sad that there are this type of very bad customers.
You can complain the driver to LTA, Newspaper or Stomp.
You can scold the the driver or pay the normal amount you always paid.
But hurting the driver like that is a no-no.
I really feel sorry for the driver.
But the driver also made the mistake of going the longer way too.
He should had asked the customers the actual location.
Also should ask which route they want if there are too many choices.
Its more troublesome but safer.
And to customers, don't be angry when cabby ask you.
It will be a win-win ways for both parties to avoid misunderstanding.

Singaporeans likes to complain?

This clip is from a variety show.
Though they might made it to look funny for entertainment.
But can't help to feel its not all false at all.
Is it only Singaporean or people are from all developed countries?
Or its only human's nature?

So what's with the mid American accent?

I was chatting with an English customer.
And the background radio was Class95 'Lunch with Yasmine'.

Suddenly he asked :"
I thought Singapore is speaking British English?
So what's with the mid American accent?"

I replied :"Maybe she was educated in the US?"

Cabbie found dead in his taxi

Cabbie found dead in his taxi

Really sad to see another cabby died on the job.
I will like to send my condolence to his family.

Dear fellow cabbies,
Work hard but do remember to rest when your body tell you to.
Money can be earn but health shouldn't be sacrificed for it.
Once you are gone, there will be no 2nd chance anymore.

Pls don't gamble......but I won't quit

Picked up a customer going to Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal.
Along the way, she started to chat with me.
At 1st, she was telling me that its not safe for us to drive after midnight.
Than she started to talk about gambling.
She said about her gambling history.
She had lost more than she win.
She also told me the best not to gamble.
So I asked her why is she still gambling?
She said its her life...and she won't quit.

5 phones...49 calls


Haha...the title is the 1st sentence this customer said to me when he broad the taxi.
He said he been trying to book a taxi using 5 phones.
So he finally got mine on the 49th call.
He is a nice German dad bring his kids to the German school.
Don't know what event, but alot people going there. (got 2 calls going there)
There is alot chatting between us.
He also commented that if in Germany, he won't allow his kids to take taxi alone.
He also told about life in Germany.
He also like living in Singapore becs of the security.

Pls...don't call me Expat

Picked up an angmo customer at a bus stop.
When he got in, he start complained.
He said that he been waiting for the bus for more than 30min.
And 2 bus for the other direction had passed.
Soon we started chatting about driving here.
And the 'Expat' word came out.
He said that he prefers not to be called 'Expat'.
But a Singapore-lised German.
He has been here for more than 7yrs.
He really like living here.
And had began doing Singaporean activities like going to the mall, watching movie etc.
He had also start a company here.
Its really nice chatting with him.
At the end, he recommended Munich as a good and fun place to visit.

Thank you for waiting


I would to say thank you to this customer, Mr Singh.
He was my on call customer.
I shouldn't had accepted the job.
But the jam along the way there was much worst than expected.
So by the time I reached there, its total of 18min.
I had expected he would had left.
Boy, I was wrong.
He was waiting for me.
It really made my day.
I would like to say thank you again!

Mr Yusof Ishak's great granddaughter


Sent 2 Malay ladies to a mosque in Geylang Lor 37.
They were there to attend a wedding.
Because I had picked them up at another function.
So I asked them...they really had a busy day.
So they told me that they are attending a wedding.
The bride is none other than Mr Yusof Ishak's great granddaughter.
Congratulation to the new couple!

Met Taxi Uncle.....of the sea

After sending 2 customers to Marina South Pier.
I decided to wait awhile to see if got customer to go out.
After 3min wait, got a uncle got in.
We started chatting.
I asked him about his job.
His reply was..."like you, driving people around....except at sea."
He told me how his job was like.
He is in the job for 33yrs.
Its really interesting to be able to meet nice customer.

Customer from Belgium


Drove a customer from Belgium.
She is friendly.
We chat about Belgium.
All I know about this country is that it hosted the HQ for NATO.
Also the famous battle that happened that during WW2.
She told me that Belgium should be enter into Guinness book of record:-
For being the country that continue functioning without a Government.
Than she explained......
Its not that they don't have a Government in place.
Just that 3 parties got about the same amount of seats in their parliament.
Thus no out right winner.
So they had to form coalition, but they can never agree with each other.
Thus its as good as no Government.

Same parents...19 kids

Recently got a customer told me that he came from a big family.
Exncluding himself...he had 18 brothers and sisters.
What was shocking was that all from the same parents.
I heard before big families with lots of kids.
But mostly few different mothers.
He liked his big family.
But he got a big headache....when its Hari Raya time.
Why?
Cos he got alot of nieces and nephews.

It's a rainy & quiet Christmas day


This year's Christmas day was a rainy & quiet one.
Was on the street from 5pm till 5am working as PT cabby.
It was totally different from last year.
Maybe its because of the rain that made people want to stay indoor.
Last year wasn't rainy.
But still see people getting drunk and some accidents.
Guess thats the norm nowadays...even its not a holiday.

When tired….get some rest


Remember to rest when your body start giving out warnings
Cos you never know when your body will auto shut down
If lucky…nothing happen
If unlucky…a one way ticket to the other world
If really unlucky…you continue to live with a guilty conscious for the rest of your life

SUV doing dangerous stuns on expressway


Saw this news on the web.
Reminded me of an incident about 5yrs back.
A pink colour car was in the most right lane of PIE and I was at the most left lane.
The driver of the pink colour car decided to make a 90 degrees turn to the CTE exit.
Luckily, I was driving at about 60km/hr, I managed to stop in time.
And even more lucky was the the expressway was empty and no cars behind me too.
Too bad, back then got no car camera to record it.

The pot calling the kettle black



How come the pot always like to call the kettle black?
What's the use of only talking but no solution.
Still using his '1st world' comment...but no plan for it.
So he and his party is NATO...No Action, Talk Only.
So all...Pls remember the RenCi MingYi case.

Politics is a dirty game.
All politicians have their own agenda.
We can only try to choose the lesser evil one.



PS:
I an neither pro government or opposition.
This is just my neutral view.

Iowa Couple Married 72 Years Dies Holding Hands, an Hour Apart


How many couples nowadays can stay together for so long?
30years is really rare....let alone 72years.
And the best part is that they died an hour apart.
They really showed the world their love toward each other got no boundaries.

现在能有多少夫妻能在一起那么多年?
30年都很难了。。。72年。。。更难想象。
更稀奇事是。。。他们的死亡时间只相差1个钟。
他们让全世界见证他们对彼此的爱无界限。

How many of us can still laugh so heartily?


How many of us can still laugh so heartily?
I doubt so in advanced society.
Cos alot of us forgotten about being contented.
WP's Sylvia Lim said we should be like Bhutan on the happiness index.
But she forgotten that our society is not like them.
Most of us are used to city lifestyle, are we able to go back to rural lifestyle?

PS:
I an neither pro government or opposition.
This is just my neutral view.
