Then 2pm, I send the car to Proton Edar Bakar Batu for service. Major service. Kanna paid almost RM1K. Kannina!



Today I took MyTeksi (Grab) for the pestaim also. It was a mistake to choose myTeksi. I should choose Grabcar Economy. Going home 9km for RM22. Lajiao myTeksi.

This is my first experience taking myTeksi on grab apps. After setting up the pick up point and destination point, the apps on my iphone is running slow. Then suddenly this uncle call me asking where exactly my location. I told him I am at Proton service center near Petronas. He confirm know the location. Less than 5 min he arrive and honk the horn. I jump in the red cab. Then he start driving. On his phone, the apps only showing my destination. No waze or gps apps is running. The car is Persona. The interior still intact. But the aging seat at the back feels itchy. You know what I mean, dear diary. The aircond is working cool. But the driver body odors smells bad. Maybe the driver works too long today, but it still afternoon. I ask him how much the fare. He said he uses meter. I calm down. The meter starts with RM3 and extra RM2.50 for the on-call. The teksi is 2years and belong to the driver, not the company. So, he just paying to the bank every month for installment. He has been a teksi driver for 12 years. It's hard to earn RM200 in JB, only RM100 plus. The car uses petrol and gas, accumulated to RM60 per day. The driver also upset on the Uber cars, but he blame it to the 'bodoh' authority.

4.38pm, ping from QIJ at Ehsan Jaya going to JB Sentral.

5.39pm, ping from nearby CHE at JB Sentral going to Larkin Sentral. CHE is going back to KL. Stuck at Jalan Wong Ah Fook for 15 min.
