forgive and forget

i waited 45 minutes for my cab!!! yeah... bleah...

i stayed back a bit later at work to finish some TURT stuff. urgh... and it began to rain cats and dogs!!! sigh... drip drip drip...

it was pretty scary being in the office alone. =( cos the rest had left... and the whole building was dark, and the sky outside was ominous... and when i went to the loo, there was an almighty BANG! and i almost jumped into the toilet bowl. =b heh... ok not quite that... but still i was freaked!

called my mom to tell her i'd probably take a cab. called mel to calm my nerves. called city cab... again... and again... and again...

EIGHT TIMES IN TOTAL.

each time i was put on hold and told to wait for a customer service officer blah blah... and FIVE of those times, i got through to someone after more than 5 minutes. and then i was put on hold AGAIN for them to process my booking. and then they would say "There are no taxis available now. Please try again later." SHEESH... after all that...

urghhh...

i gave up after the 8th time. hah! then... THEN... they called me. told me i have a cab liao =D DUH.

phew...

so finally got into a cabbie and troddled on home. heh... was a bit grumpy with the whole city cab service for a while... but then... well i guess it can't be an easy job huh? especially on rainy days... so... shall treat it as a learning experience. the way the world works... =b
