She said she just about to come down. Pundenale. She asked to wait at the unclear shop bcoz she speaks no good English. I got upset and confused and waited 5 min then I cancelled.

4.22pm, KTK ping at the Capsquare REsidence. I saw the pin locatin just nearby but couldnt go in bcoz of one way street, so I drive one big round. I told him about the issue, he just gigle. Pundenale. Then he starts complaining to the previous driver who just cancelled the job on him. He got upset bcoz Uber sure charged him rm5. I told him that dont just blame the driver only, sometimes the driver cannot find the rider or got confused with the location. He looked at me with a bad face. I send him to Regalia. The fare was rm5.13, minus promo code of rm5, makes him to pay 13 sen to me. I asked for 50 sen but the money just dropped by his seat. I asked rm1 that he hold, but he still try looking the 50 sen he dropped just now. Later he gave me the rm1 and asked 50 sen balance back. Pundenale la stingy IT guy!
4.56pm, BNN ping me from the same Regalia while I camp at the ground floor. She called asking my whereabouts. "Are you at ground floor or main entrance or 4th floor?" She shouted at me. I dont know I told her bcoz no signage shown anywhere. She asked me to ask the security guard. Pundenale! Then she said she saw me already from her place. The lady with a toddler and the mom came to my cab. I told her that normally this is where the drivers will pickup them. She still not satisfied. I told her no signage anywhere mem. Then I drove them down to the ground where she show me the ground floor but I told her there is no pickup point. The mom said the same thing, "dear, no pickup point here." Then she calms down a bit. I send them to Ras Balouch Jalan Ipoh. "It's a Pakistani restaurant lah uncle," she told me again and again. Do I care, mem?

Got ping from JORDAN at the same G Residence. When arrived, I pressed the "I AM HERE" button on the apps and waited for 7min. No rider show and I cancelled. The second cancellation of the week. Whatthefook man! I drove out to the road side and got another job ping. Then suddenly this negro knocked on my window, I told him I cancelled his booking already bcoz I waited too long. He said sorry due to the lift problem. But he insisted me to take him with extra fare. But I told him I got a new job. Then I left him. Good lah.
9.11pm, VSN at G Village Desa Pandan sending to Desa 288 Flats. Inside the cab, I asked him where he came from, "India? Bangla?" He told me, "aiyah uncle, I am local lah." Lol. "But no worries la uncle, many people thought the same. Furthermore, I work at Bangla Embassy now!" Then we talk and talk. He just got banned from Grabcar bcoz he cancelled many bookings before. This is my first time hearing that riders got banned! Good and fair lah for driver, especially some of us who driving far far away then when arrived the rider suddenly cancelled for fun. He makes my day.
