K for Komplexity...

Kudos!

Lately I have been taking rides from the same cabby uncle. He’s really a nice man. Let’s call him Uncle Wilson. I’d like to shout out kudos to him here( tho I know clearly he definitely won’t be reading this). Because I feel that he’s a really nice man. Well, for one, he’s been buying brekky for me for 2 occasion since our “rendevous” together….(wahahaha..this sounds so sleazy…but pls take this with a pitch of salt yar?)
Anyway it all started on this fateful day when I flagged down his taxi…..

Uncle Wilson: Miss, where are you heading to?

Me: Bukit Batok Crescent, uncle

*Ponders for awhile…..*
Uncle Wilson: Hmmm…ok!

Me: *smiles* while hopping in….

Uncle Wilson: So Miss, which route would u like to take?

Me: *looking blur* erhmm…whichever is faster I guess. How about CTE, Lornie Road?

Uncle Wilson: Wah…there sure jam one. Plus got ERP u know. Your cab fare can claim by company ornot?

Me: *hesitatingly* Yar…I suppose I can claim…. *drifting off….*

Uncle Wilson: Okay…it will be similar price if I take the TPE/BKE route, so rather let me earn then government aey? Anyway this route will be smoother…no jam…and I assure u won’t be late one!

Me: *Apprehensively co rather taken aback by his sudden outburst of honesty, but decided to go with it* Okay…

So…along the way we started talking. Slowly I felt that he seemed a pretty nice man after all. So when he asked me for my contact to offer an arrangement that he would pick me up for the entire project span that I was to be at Bukit Batok, I gave him my namecard.

So from then on, he would call me to confirm the timing to pick me up. And if he can’t make it or need to come a lil later, he would always arrange someone nice to pick me up instead.

I’m blessed to meet nice cabby drivers….heehee..*smiles contently*

And today, he actually bought me brekky again for the second time, how sweet huh?

I’m not someone who takes the cab often but I’ve heard stories about cabbies…..some not very nice stories, but I guess there’s always a black sheep somewhere but that doesn’t mean all of them are the same, unrealiable and out to cheat their customers.

But no..he does not have funny intentions alright. He has a family and he is very doting to his wife and two kids. He even showed me their pictures and often talk about them with such enthusiasm and a sparkle in his eyes. He seems a very contented man to me. Very nice man he is. =)

So here’s kudos to Uncle Wilson for bringing a better light to cabby drivers! =)
