Very bad experience with the taxis usher at Changi Airport Terminal 3. Not once but twice. Yesterday i was at terminal 3 taxi stand B and i notice that people have been skipping my taxi. Not knowing why i assume is they see that its a female driver hence skip me. As i look as thou i have no strength to carry their luggage. Nvm. So later 2 guys boarded my taxi and asked me “oh so you dont accept nets or visa?” I was like “no? I do accept. I have cashless terminal in the taxi! Look!” As i pointed to the cashless terminal.
So the pax was telling me that the usher said “the premier taxi over there don’t accept nets or visa.” WOW! WHO SAYS?? HE DIDN’T EVEN ASKED ME. For me pax who use cashless usually are the tua liap pokemon. Usually $30 above. NVM. AS LONG AS I STILL GET PAX I AM FINE WITH THAT..
BUT WHAT HAPPENED JUST NOW WAS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS AND UNACCEPTABLE.
At 11.15pm i was asked to go glass door 2. So there was a lot of car and all lots were taken, i waited on the left hand side for ushers instructions. The usher signal me lot 1. So i proceed. Suddenly another malay uncle signal me to get to lot 8. Which is impossible because i have alr past the lot. So i pointed to the 1st usher and signal to the 2nd usher mouthing the word “lot 1”
Then he started screaming and pointing to my vehicle. “You stupid ah!!!! So stupid!!!!! Really stupid la u!!!!” Right in front of so many people. Tourists were staring, other TD looking at me.
I felt really humiliated and almost confronted him. But pax boarded my taxi and no choice I drove away.
They should send their bloody ushers to some basic manners course. They are standing at the front line of singapore tourism. And they should at least show some basic courtesy to TD. Always screaming at the taxi drivers as thou we are working FOR THEM. WE ARE NOT DOGS. YOU TRYING TO EARN A LIVING, SO AM I. Nobody deserve to be scream and abused. Much less being scolded stupid.
I hope changi airport would be able to give me an explanation. Really i am very traumatized by this incident. I am scare of going to changi airport for pax. Its like i go there i must be abused by their ushers there.
