Step Taxi!

 Well this one is from the taxi driver himself. He told me that he picked this drunk person from "After Dark Nightclub" . Driver said, "Dis falla just say, Votualevu". Taxi driver continued his story, saying that when taxi arrived at Votualevu suburb, the customer opened the door and just ran away (step-taxi is the local term). Driver told me "Bhaiya, dis falla one stupid falla, because I drop him infront of his own house. He should choose another house" Vinaka soli vakasala... KAILA!

" Brada can you wait for twentieeeeeee minutes"

 Called for taxi this evening.
Taxi base operator responds, " Brada can you wait for twentieeeeeee minutes" (Its like, he's not sure whether to say twenty or not).
Because the moment, I growled back "WHAAAT?" He quickly bounced back...Okay 2 minutes! hehehe I know he is not going to come in 2 minutes. That is just to get me off the phone. The driver will arrive in 20mins and he will blame the operator for not telling him to come quickly. A viciously funny circle this is!! Good Night!

Flooding! Flooding!

Arrived back in Nadi and its raining. Called for taxi pick up. Noticed small pool of water on floor of the taxi and cautioned driver about it. In his own words, he shared, "Ahre boss, the water was flooding, flooding, flooding...Lucky I know how to swim". SEGAII! Well, realising, he was making himself the victim, I felt bad about continuing the issue of the water-logged floor of his taxi. Arrived home and my wife asks why my shoes were wet. I replied, "Its another taxi driver story". hehehe!

No Comment

Taxi Driver Story: The other day the driver asks me, "Hey brada, you gang gonna change your name to Fiji Airways?". I quickly responded, "No comment" as I took a call on my cellphone. In the background, I could hear him repeating, "No comment is still a comment". hehehhe! Must have been a boring morning for him.
