After picking up my and eating at a nearby Chinese restaurant we were able to get a cab last night with a driver so nice you’d actually feel proud of him and feel guilty that you can’t tip him enough. It’s so rare to find cab drivers like this who is more than just after the money but actually wanted to do his job well. He’s noble and really polite for a cab driver, which is really rare. Since it was raining really hard last night the traffic was chaotic. But not a word of complain was heard from him. He was even joking with me and my girl and actually being so modest that he says that he is not that nice when it comes to ferrying people to where they want to go. It just so happens that he is also from the south and knows how hard it is to get a cab to drive you there. A tip for him is appropriate. I also noticed that his meter isn’t the one with a “batingting” that skyrockets every time he revs up his vehicle considering that it was a new model. The driving was superb and really smooth and the driver himself is polite and well mannered. Another tip for him seems to be the right thing to do. When we arrived at our destination we handed him the fare plus the tip.
What really surprises me when we boarded his cab was, he told us that he’d just set the meter later because he needs to gas up at a nearby gasoline station. When I told him it’s ok he declined and said sometimes it takes a long time for the attendants to load him up. Now talk about being fair huh.
David Mendoza all drivers should be like you. Cheers to you mate and God speed!
