taken for a ride

Take Taxi (Musing)

At times when taking the taxi, the uncle instead takes you for a ride. That happens to me more often then I would like to be honest.

I have motion sickness, and that doesn’t help me very much when I take public transport. Especially with the taxi cab. It can be equivalent to a roller coaster ride sometimes.

Besides that I would typically snooze off into a relatively deep sleep.

So in this instance, I too fell asleep and when I opened my eyes again, I was near johor baru. I asked the uncle why he brought me all the way out to the north when in reality he could have exited much earlier.

He conveniently said “I asked you just now and you said go further north.”

Of course I said no such thing. Then I told the uncle to go back to where he should be going. Which he did and when I finally got home it was $30+ just for a journey that would have cost much less.

Oh well lesson learnt.
