Taxing Taxiing, Part 7
(I answer phones for a taxi service.)
Caller: “I’d like to go to the liquor store.”
Me: “Okay, are you ready to be picked up right now?”
Caller: “WHAT?! You’re already here and ready to pick me up right now?!”
Me: “No, no, no, no! I’m asking you what time you’d like to go to the liquor store.”
Caller: “Hehe… You’re a funny guy. You tricked me, you sneaky guy, you.”
Me: “If you’re ready to be picked up right now—”
Caller: “But I don’t see the cab.”
Me: *pause* “The cab will be over in about ten minutes.”
