Cab-ful day
Its a Cab-ful day today.
Woke up late for work again. It was rainning and the weather is perfect for sleep. How I wish I cold sleep a little longer. Oh well. Left home rather late.
It seems impossible to flag down a cab. Tried calling the booking hotline for all the cab company but could get thru. I knew if I can't get thru the hotline, I most likely couldn't flag down a cab. So I keep trying for 15 minutes but still couldn't get thru the line. Then I saw an empty cab appearing out of nowhere. So I quickly flag it down. Saved me the booking fees.
------------------
Worked until 11pm today. I seldom stay in office until so late. Didn't had my dinner.
As I was in the cab, I was thinking what to have for dinner. Most of the shops near my house should be closed by now. Don't know what to eat. Don't feel like cooking instant noodles.
Suddenly, I got an idea. Why not go McDonalds drive thru at King Albert Park? Its 24 hours. Just that I've never been to a drive thru in a cab before. The Taxi driver sound kinda shocked when I proposed that idea. But he agreed to make a turn to the drive thru.
So I brought my first McDonalds meal from a cab. I guess I've attracted alot of attention from people inside McDonalds. hahaha.

You have not yet broke my record lor..
I told my cab to make a big turn to a Macdonald which does not have a drive thru and then ask him to wait for me outside while I went in a queue for my meal. 15 mins later, I got out and hob on my cab...
I forgot whats my cab fare already but should be quite high...

And the cab driver actually allowed you to do that? Some will go complain and complain about it.
Once I took a cab and told him that I need to go to 3 places and if he is willing, otherwise I wont get it. He said okay and guess what, throughout the journey he was complaining and complaining about it. I told him to either let me get out of his whining or can it and drive the rest of the journey.

Why would the cab driver complain when S/he is charging you based on time?

Cos complaining is the national pastime of Singaporeans? Whining is the second national pastime...
