My weekend whizzed past just like that , slogging for a tiny lil' cafe in the Airport .
This entry will be a short one since i'm kinda in a rush ( work again , what else ?! )
Just wanted to share an incident i had on friday night.
Was supposed to meet up with M's cousin and his friend @ Dbl-O on friday night and since it was already like 1am there wasn't any form of transportation avail except the very expensive kind and well i had no choice but to take the latter.
Standing by the pavement , the night was cold and dreary and it looked like rain was imminent .
I NEEDED A CAB. FAST.
And there was one. I waved frantically and i thought it was slowing down when suddenly it accelerated just as it drove past me.
WTF?!!!!!!!!!!
Then came along the second cab.
This time though , it didn't even bother to slow down and it just went by as if i wasn't there .
Then came the third.. the fourth.. the fifth.
WHAT IN THE WORLD?????!!!!!
I was hopping mad and going stir-crazy.
DAMN WRONG LA !
I couldn't think of any reason why this was happening because it was already way past midnight and at this witching hour cab drivers would give an arm and a leg to pick up passengers.
In the distance i saw a cab.
I was determined.
I went down to the road and stood right smack on it while flailing my arm.
IT WORKED !
I got into the cab cursing under my breath and started complaining.
"Wah lao uncle , you know how long i waited for this cab or not ? 10 mins leh !! Got so many cabs drive past me you know ??"
The uncle adjusted his mirror and looked at me.
"Miss , i tell you something you don't be offended ah !"
Huh what ? I was puzzled.
"Okay.."
"Actually i didn't want to pick you up because i thought you were one of those freelancers lor.. You know freelancers ?"
I nodded.
"Yah because at this hour they all come out mah .. I think the previous drivers all think like that lor. Those girls very fierce one , go into the cab pester driver non-stop"
I was indignant.
I was dressed DECENTLY okay ! ( come to think of it , i've never dressed indecently before save for a few scandalous hemlines )
A loose-fitting chiffon tube top and a full length denim jeans.
Actually i didn't think the attire mattered at all.
As long as you're female , not fat and is standing by the roadside after 12am , you're in the sex industry.
What a sad state of affairs.
