But I told her 10min she says she can wait. Not even 5min she calls again, I say 2min. But when about to arrive, she cancels. Pundenale. But uncle just drive straight to find where the Aster Hotel that bugger Waze and Google Maps send me just now. And I saw the negro lady and her bf still there waiting for next driver. Now I know where The Aster Hotel is. Charcheebye lah Waze.

Dear my sweet diary, today I was invited to attend Grabcar offer a 'Gold' project or leasing a car for Grabcar purposes only. 1.33pm, I arrive at Grabcar HQ next to Renault showroom but are directed to Dewan Secita which is far far away. 2.12pm arrive at the presentation room with a lady and only 4 Grabcar drivers including yours truly. A short presentation by the lady only on Grabcar priority jobs. Renting of Nissan Almeera for 5 years with payment of rm472 per week to Grabcar. Driver cannot use Uber apps anymore. Questions on the car leasing only entertained by Mayflower. So far, 81 project Gold drivers are active. Personally uncle feels that leasing or renting a car for Grabcar jobs is not worth it. Unless we dont have any other job to cari makan. And we kanna kayuh 20 hours everyday for 5 years. Aiyah. And that Grabcar lady is manyak langsi wan! Charcheebye lah.
3.08pm, REB at SS4 going to Sunway Sutera.

4.41pm, CHA a Pinoy maid at Damansara Villa sending to KTM Bank Negara.
5.15pm, Dato RSS at Regalia to Royal Selangor Club for RM42 which is throw a stone distance only. Uncle is shock for a while! When Dato inside my cab I check to confirm which Royal Selangor Club he wants to go. He confirms he wants to go to the nearby Dataran Merdeka and says, "kamcha kamcha uncle! u cari makan, I oso cari makan mah!" He makes my day today! Apparently he made a mistake to choose the Bukit Kiara wan. He doesnt want to rebook or cancel the trip. But he requests my favor to send him to nearby Maybank atm on the way to Royal Selangor Club and I do not have any complain about it. Due to bad traffic jam, he talks and talks about his career time before retirement in 1995. He mentions about Mahathir, Anwar and Tajuddin crisis. Due to delay in traffic jam also makes uncle thinking that RM42 is worth it or not. But I need to content, shouldn't I my dear diary?
