Just when i needed you most, you are Hard Up?!

1. Taxis are always not available when you need them.
Taxi drivers always complain they have no business.
I wonder who are the lucky ones.
I am lucky but for those who takes the taxi in the morning, you have to pay -
On call charge $4
Metre starts $2.40
Peak Hour $2
ERP $2(minimum)
Before your metre starts kicking in, you already have to pay $10.40!

Well, some Taxis appear from an ambiguous corner when you do a ON CALL.Especially competitive when it comes to morning and evening time. NO cabs!
Guess Taxi drivers are not so hard up after all.

2. I was trying to look for a doctor.
There are 5 clinics in the market which i can go to.
On this saturday night, they were all hanging CLOSED signs.
The only one opened had like 20 patients inside. It was already 8.30pm.
I gather it will be like 11pm before the doctor can see me and they close at 9.30pm.
If im a doctor, i will open my clinic on a Sat night. At least 2 saturdays in a month. And who says, its competitive being a doctor? Its a matter of choice.
Guess Doctors are not so hard-up after all.
