Hello guys. Just want to share of what just I experienced rather witnessed just this morning.
Forgive me for non Filipino reader for Im going to write this in TagLish language so I can freely express what I want to share.
Just this morning aroung 10pm,habang ng-aabang ng masasakyan pauwi galing doing my daily tasks in my Premise earnings.Luckily may dumating naman agad na pedicab unloading 2 ladies in their middle age sasakay na sana ako ng bumaba ang driver at hinabol 2 babae na halatang ngmamadali. They were having some arguments,at nagalit ung 2 babae. The driver went back sa pedicab looking so tired and disappointed naiiling2x nalang. On our way hindi na ako nakatiis I asked him what happened back there,he told me that he was like being scam with those 2 ladies. Paying only half of their fare when there are 2 of them and to think galing pa pala cla sa Rural area 4-5 km away from town taz lubak2x ung daanan daw dun. He said they supposed to give him fare 50php dahil 25php talaga ang fare dun sa lugar na un but gave 20 instead for 2 of them. They were making excuses na walang change yung 500 bill. Naawa talaga ako dun sa driver,he doesnt deserve this kind of pambabastos sa kanya na ung 2 babae pa nagalit,he was doing his job properly and in decent way.
My father once was a driver,he supported us with this kind of occupation and Im very proud of him. Kaya everytime I witness something like this degrading drivers I really cant stand it parang gusto kong balikan ung 2 babae at pangaralan. They really have the gots to do this in times of crisis?really?We are supposed to help whos in need the most but they are doing actually the opposite.
Drivers are doing 2ndline in this battle against virus also. If it werent for them,many of us cant reach our daily destination. We should salute them and give the fare they deserve atleast thats what we can do for them.
Thats all guys. Its kinda long but I was just like emotional pagdating po sa mga driver dahil nga I was raised by my Father as a driver.
Feel free to share your opinion po if you have finish reading it though..haha
Everyone of us is affected with this pandemic and so the least we can do is to be responsible of our actions and play fair.
