Encounters of the STREET kind!!!
Egyptian women are constantly bombarded by such a wonderful time on the street!It has been brought to my attention that not all egyptian men are even aware of what we go through day in and day out by just walking/driving/riding in the street!
I will try to explain to those unaware men, mearly beacause I believe these men don't know because they do not contribute to our misery..
SpeciMEN #1: The Crazy Taxy
When hauling a taxi cab you are usually judged by your looks...meaning..if you're well-dressed it translates to paying alot. So the moment you get into the cab.. you check your watch to see how long the trip will take.. you start praying quietly the streets aren't crouded or else the driver will start talking which means big problem! If and when he starts talking, he'll either be the talkative kind & ultimatley go into politics & the how the US controls the UN(!) blabla OR he'll start swearing 3al balad wel 3eisha!
Ofcourse there is also the religious extremist diver..who apart from looking at you with scary eyes..will start an obnoxiously loud cassette tape with a strange man shouting his lung out about how Muslim women should dress & act!
So you, if you're lucky, arrive to your destination. It's time for a very tricky & artful technique: How to get out of the cab, pay & start walking away in the same instant! Or else, you're in for a fight for paying too little, going too far, or being inconciderate to the time of day the driver graciously gave you!
To be continued...
mmm.. Poor females. . well, that kinda happens to guys as well .. with a slight difference.. that a guy can be beaten ,, a gal can't! interesting HUH ?
I have a trick though .. give the driver a medical consultation and he wouldn't ask for too much.. actually u might get a free ride :D
besides. cab drivers are vicious aslan. . and they can't appreciate ANYTHING whatsoever.. they give u that impression that they're doing you a favor of driving you .. as if u r not payin for it! .. I hate Cabs!
Asrar .. How do u get such ideas for posts ..? I got a severe persistent heart block..
and I just came from a clinical exam that I diagnosed a lung disease without actually examining the chest .. I examined the heart instead. . it looked like heart though.. I just realized it was a chest case when I was discussing it with my professor. . it was a hectic long day and I can't feel any dummer in ma whole life ... *sniff* I hate me!
