SHE LEFT HER IPHONE
Monday, 8 April 2019.
5.48pm, RAO an India guy and 2 Japanese ladies at Mettler Toledo Services Asia Pac, Jalan Astaka U8/84 sending to Sunway Pyramid. The Chinese guy who sent them off asking me to send them to Sunway Clio hotel actually. I said I dont mind. While still on the Guthrie highway and while stuck on the first traffic light, RAO asked me whether we were at Shah Alam. I said yes. After dropping them off at the hotel, I just hang around the Sunway city. I stopped at the Petron to pee. Then suddenly RAO called me via Grab masking phone. I suspected something is not right. I looked at the back seat and saw the iphone left by the lady. I told him I would send the iphone in 30 minutes. He said okay and would pay me extra money.
When I arrived again at the hotel lobby, they were waiting already and one of the ladies running towards me. But I told her to back off since I needed to park my car at the safe space. Soon I gave her back the iphone and asked for rm20 (nijue in Japanese). She said not a problem. The other lady mentioned how nice I am. And the iphone lady gave me some sweets and said, "no worry, no poison." Lol.
GRAB MELAKA AND TOUR DE LANGKAWI TODAY
Sunday, 7 April 2019.

9.55am, "ADDICTED BKAS NPL" 2 Nepal young men at Pangsapuri Taman Tasik Utama, Blok E (Orkid) going to far far away Lot 6688 Asrama Pekerja Asing, Londang Masjid Tanah. When arrived, waited for 10 minutes for a chubby girl with big watermelons. Then 5 minutes after they're talking to each other, the girl asked me to send the men to Melaka Sentral. At first when checking the fare, I used Waze showing 22km, so I asked for rm25. They didnt mind. But soon after I drove out from the hostel, I was surprised to see the Waze distance showing 33km. Then I stopped by the roadside. The guy who sat next to me agreed to offer rm80 in total fare while showing me his bundle money! Not only that, he showed me a couple of "gold watches" which later I needed to drive back to the hostel and passed the watches to the chubby girl. So I sent them off to Melaka Sentral.
Bonus story.
4.06pm, JIHA a Malay girl at Imperial Heritage hotel (infront of Dataran Pahlawan mall) sending to Nur Hostel, Taman Cheng Emas. It took many more than an hour to reach the hostel due to the many roads were blocked by police. Then later, I reckon that there're Tour de Langkawi bike race is being run on the main road.

6.56am, AMI a Malay guy at Jalan Utama 6/3, Kampung Tasik Baru, Dengkil sending to Desa Green Condom, Jalan Desa Bakti, Pengkalan Tentera Udara Diraja Malaysia. The waze shows the time to destination is 43 minutes. The traffic is bad on Sg Besi highway and Plus highway. Soon, he says that he wants to sleep for a moment. I say no problem and I turn down the mp3 volume on the radio. But he insists me to let the volume on higher. Also he asks me on how to do advance booking on the grab. I tell him to use 6 seater option. Later, he asks me my phone number. But I warn him that I got many homes to entertain that I might pass the job to other driver.
I ignore a job from Bukit Desa Condom to Toyota Service Centre Jalan Templer Section 51.
8.00am, MOZ another Malay guy at nearby South View Serviced Apartments, Lorong Kerinchi Kiri, sending to Kompleks Rapid Rail Subang, Ara Damansara. His meeting will be at 9.30am, so no rushing. I drive through Federal highway which has a moderate traffic jam.

While setting up the 6seater ...
4.00pm, ADL a matsalleh at Zuellig Pharma, Persiaran Pasak Bumi. The matsalleh wrote, "go to main gate and ask to go to main lobby." This is not the first time I need to look at the makguard so that she could open the gate. The rain was heavy. When I arrived at the lobby, I saw there was already a teksi (innova) with 3 people (2 matsalleh and 1 pinoy lady). "There was a mishap," he said and he took back their bags from the teksi into my cab. Only 3 people going to the KLIA, while the other matsalleh who apparently has already advancely booked the teksi.
I camped at the Landside. Pee and pray.
I had mee hoon goreng at the cafe and met this uncle. He's retired already and driving Grab to pass his time. Good lah.
I waited for 5 hours for a ping. I set MD (my destination) to Kajang hoping to get a pasengger on the same way HOME3.
At 9.15pm, while doing my pray at the mushollah, an AA (auto accept) ping came in but the guy cancelled it already. I reckoned he called me through Grab masked phone. No rejecki for me.
At 10pm, after 5 hours of doing nothing at the Landside, suddenly there was a notification telling me that I was off gps. Kannina.
So after 10 minutes, I left the Landside and going home.
So frustrated.

When asked the reason of the banned, he said, "got accused of dangerous driving with a rider that I had heated words with even I didn't do it." Well I felt so pity for him. This is not the first time I heard it.
