Off To MetroWalk

It was raining and I need to be in a meeting. I went to Serendra to hail a cab, after 10million years I was refused by 10 taxis. All of them gave me the biggest shit reason of Ortigas being traffic. And so I end up with this weirdo taxi driver, who's the only one who didn't ask or whatever. He just took me and drive a little before he asking where we're going, in english! Yes, in english, well , I guess he thought I was a foreigner, yet again. Eight out of 10 drivers would mistake me for a foreigner. I just ignored him and answered the question, in Filipino--- "Sa Metrowalk po."--- but then he insisted --- "Where you going?"--- "Metrowalk, Ortigas po." I answered back. "Okay, do you like EDSA or C5?" --- "C5! just take the U turn." I politely said. "U turn then right." I thought he knew the way so I relaxed, but to find that I was nowhere going to C5, I panicked, wt* he drove me around McKinley---that was a long U turn huh! The meter then reads Php140.00, from my regular Php90.00 meter going there, it's a joke! He did the long wrong U turn for a reason.Plus, before reaching Metrowalk, (flyover in sight) "Sir? can we fly over?", was like omg! please don't (I thought he was suggesting flying over, shit, stupid.). "Oh, okay then." (After realizing he meant using the flyover)

R&E Taxi

It was the usual Friday night/ Saturday midnight (---what was usual was the night part) when I was dropped by our Finance Head, at this MRT pink colored fence in North Ave., Quenzon City. There I wait and wait for taxis to stop for me, but then ofcourse, known taxi drivers for awhile of being choosy when it comes with passengers from NLEX, so I also did some choosing apart from waiting, because I already know what would taxi drivers (not from the company operated ones) tell me---"Php300.00 (or Php500.00) sir!". It would only cost me Php200.00 all-in including the toll fee (to and from) if they would just take from the meter.

And so, I end up, hailing this taxi from R&E, yey! Ofcourse he did ask for extra, but yeah, it's nothing for me, as long as he takes me home, safe and sound, and no blah blah during the whole ride.
