What's so amazing about Grace??!
2.53pm: I get a call from a prospective employer, "We can meet today and discuss the job I was telling you about. How soon do you think you can be in the office?" "Give me an hour," I say, cool as can be. I hang up and sit in daze for a few minutes, "Wooohooooo!!" I wrap up chatting and whatnot and start getting ready.
3.32pm: I call a cab and go downstairs to wait.
3.40pm: Tap, tap, tap my foot. Light a dunhill fine cut, inhale, still waiting.
3.45pm: WTF!! Incompetent cab services, Still waiting as you've probably guessed!!
3.51pm: The cab arrives. I jump in. "Taylors college, abang. Do you know where it is?" "Taylors in Subang Jaya. Okay Lah. No problem," He replies. I put my earphones on and do a quick mental calculation. Good traffic, I'll be there by 4.07pm. Bad traffic I'll be there by 4.20pm. Not too bad. I close my eyes and listen to Norman Brown trying to calm myself down.
4.02pm: My phone rings. "Loco, how far are you?" "I'm sorry, traffic is horrid but I just passed the Sunway toll so I should be there within the next 10 minutes."
4.05pm: The foot starts tap tap tapping again! A slight drizzle begins.
4.09pm: We get there. "This is Taylors Miss. 26RM" I pay quickly and jump out of the cab.
That is the point I stopped looking at my watch. That is also the point, I started looking for Amazing Grace.
To be continued.....

Wow, a Malaysian cab driver that didn't even ask 'where you come from?', complain about Nigerian students while saying Kenyans were good and propose solutions to all the world's political problems? Boy do I miss the cab drivers in KL.... one would believe that all of world's problems would dissapear if they were in charge.
Anyway, I'm with Nik...
Nik = 31337
Still salivating for more
I've been clicking refresh for the past 24 hours... I'm wasting away and turning into a shell of my previous self... do you want my demise on your conscience Loco, huh, do you?
@ Cante: Salivate no more
@ Mo; Hebu refresh one more time.... ahhhh, there you go!
Throughout this I'm thinking Oh God!! I hope the person on the other end isn't as mean as I usually am when interviewing. You're late by more than 10 minutes, things won't work out too good.
30 minutes later that was the least of my worries!!
