I feel kinda bad sometimes…
lol so this is the second time I ditched a rickshaw driver because he pissed me off. It really bugs me when these dirty rascals try to rip me off because I don’t speak language. My argument is, just cuz I don’t speak hindi don’t mean I’m stupid, stooopit! But I feel bad for not paying for things, it’s my conscience.
So today I racked up a hefty bill driving across town with a friend. We had left some place and she was dropped off at her motor bike and I asked her to direct the guy to take me to the post office. So before she got off the rick she told the man specific instructions to take me to the post office then take me home. So we go and he’s like driving around in circles, I already recognized where most things are so I’m behind him yelling directions and using hand signals and he’s like not giving a fuck. So finally, ten minutes later we end up at the post office but behind the post office and I use my hands to tell him it’s not where he stopped. There was big sign that said post office with an arrow OBV pointing towards the front. So I walked into the gated unknown building and hopped the fence to the front of the building, where the post office was. I owed him Rs. 100. That’s his fault for trying to rip me off. But once I got to the post office it was so full of people and smelly and hot I pulled a diva and walked away. I went home because I was frustrated, my dad was sleeping so I woke him up and started yelling “HOW CAN YOU DEAL WITH ALL THESE FILTHY DUMB ASS PEOPLE!”
lol he looks at me and says ‘This is India, deal with it’ So I apologized… People here are actually really nice. Except for the dumb ones, but dumb people are all over the Earth.
I ended up going to some fort and seriously had Indian Nachos and that made me feel better. Then I had an ice cream and my angst was totally cleared away.
I’m such a baby.
