cab operators' association says,
"takings of drivers have fallen by about $800 a month." (quoted from TODAY papers.)
that's the reason why taxi meter rates are increasing.
another reason is cause the price of diesel and ERP had also increased.
i understand that it is tough for the cab uncles to support their family if the meter prices remains.
the problem is,
cab companies are having a high rental rate and,
the situation is no longer like before.
in the past, cab uncles can own and have their own cabs.
now, the companies take the cabs back from them and renting them at a high rate.
if cab companies reduce the rental rate of their cabs,
the cab uncles will be able to survive.
so why are the cab companies pushing the responsiblity to us?
as a frequent cabber on weekdays,
i have to pay for the meter increase and including the ERP.
won't it be a bomb? sighs.
and talking about the chalet and kaiyun's bday celebration tmr,
i thought i can go ky's bday before going to the chalet.
but now,
everything is so fucked up.
the adults just can't take us into consideration.
doing things on their own ways,
and make us in the difficult position.
when we come up with a good solution amongst ourselves,
the adults don't agree
and insist on doing things their own way.
and still want the same expectations from us.
selfish and unreasonable.
just hoping that this chalet will turn out well.
and hope all the drinking sessions will have a good and nice ending.
