It’s krazy how folks be tripping with these drivers. I can do a video on that topic alone, lol… Had one guy go to some lavish restaurant (spent a few hundred bucks on food and drinks alone, while the driver simply ordered a bottle of water. Starting prices on the menu for a meal is like $500 pesos ($25 USD), and the income for many folks here is barely $10 US dollars per day for work 8-10 hours. So that’s 2 1/2 days pay for a basic meal in that restaurant. Afterwards, when the driver dropped him off, the guy complained about the cost the driver was charging. It was Something like $50 US dollars, but the driver was with him for like 6-hours (not any of the drivers in the list above). The guy wanted to pay him $25 US dollars and didn’t feel it was right to be charging him while he sat his butt up in the restaurant for a couple hours). Ridiculous. And because he got stuck in the store for a long time (due to a long long line), he didn’t feel it was right to be charged for the extraordinary amount of time he was in the store. I promise you all… I cant make this stuff up. It aint the driver’s fault you wanted to go to a busy store, lol.
