MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING, BUT

Aeon Mall Bandar Dato Onn, JB.

Thursday, 19 October 2017.

Starts the car engine and Uber apps at 6.32pm after waiting for my son from his office. The odometer reads at 115,942km. My rating now: 214 riders gave me 5star, rating 4.53 (getting better), AR 86%, CR 8%.

6.37pm, 5min 1km to pickup CHR, amoi and her big mom at Jalan Tasek 60, sending them to Bayu Puteri. My car kanna 'senget sebelah' meh.

Break at 7.19pm, Petronas Bayu Puteri. Pee and pray.

7.24pm, 6min 3km to pickup RAK a young boy at Kg Bakar Batu, sending to Leisure Mall. He got promo code, so he paid only rm1.

7.41pm, FRD, and husband and daughter at The Zon Stulang Laut Ferry Terminal. Just arrived from Batam for vacation. The husband who works at Jcorp likes to talk too. We talked about my current unstalbe job, Batam island tourist spots, Uber in JB, the dying The Zon shopping mall, BSN SSP lucky draw and current high priced houses. I send them to Adda Heights.

8.13pm, 9min 3.7km, WOO at Aeon Dato Onn 'Gate A', but I went to Gate B near the exit. After shouting to each other, he and his daughter walked toward my cab. I send them to Jalan Wijaya Taman Abad JB.

Getting lazy and tired, I set destination to HOME.

8.53pm, 5min 1.3km, a sexy ahmoi from China at Jalan Kuda Taman Abad sending her to pub City of Dreams Stulang Darat. This ahmoi cannot speak English or Malay. Aiyah.

9.07pm, 4min 1.7km, ATK at Jalan Lepas Tg Puteri. It's hard to get to her pickup point due to the construction and detour on the CIQ. This young good looking Malay lady is friendly too. When asked why not working in Singapore with triple rate of salary, she says, "maybe not, it's too much challenges!" I send her to Jalan Permas 7. At drop off Rumah Pangsa Permas Jaya, I showed her the fare of RM11.40, instead I only asked for rm11. But she gave me rm20 note and asked me to keep the balance. I asked her again to make sure. "Saya ikhlas ni uncle," she said and left my cab. I smiled at her. And I saw she smiled back at me. Hehehe.

9.57pm, after idling and waiting for the ping to go home for 25min, 5min 1.7km, SNY ahmoi at Flat Sri Intan Seri Alam going to Jalan Tasek 59. She got a free ride bcoz of promo. Good lah.

I straight drive home sweet home.

Today I managed to have 7 trips, 3hr 22min. The money is meagre.
