Yep, a terrible day but it's OK
It’s started when I arrived at the office in the morning that I forgot to take my files I have been working on from home. So I took a second taxi to go and fro for the files.When I was back to the office again, I realised that I left my cellular in the first taxi.
I called my number and someone answered it. He was an honest person, thankfully, a taxi passenger too. He found my cellular and gave it to Z, the taxi driver, to return it back to me.
And the new story began.
Had an agreement that Z would return my cellular at 5pm. But when I called my number around 5pm, he was with a passenger. I said ok, and would wait for him.
I was a bit nervous when I looked at the traffic in front of my office building. It was horrible. So I called Z at my cellular and informed him to meet me around 7pm.
I called Z around 7pm, and yep, he was with another passenger. I requested him to pick me up around 8:30 pm. No response.
So I left my office building to find out whether Z has arrived or not yet. It was a beautiful sight to see the taxi waiting for me.
I asked Z to drop me back. He was a decent person, so I gave him a generous tip as my appreciation to get my cellular back. Thanks Pak!

In big city like Jakarta, it's hard 2 find good and honest person. So, happy 2 hear u got ur cellular back & met good people too.
Well, it was ok if I didn't count how much I have spent on that day
Yes, I was lucky to get my cellular back. And for the best wishes
True, am always leaving things behind, no matter how careful I am
Yep, I believe I was lucky, if I didn't count how much I have spent that day.
It was a rare to find honest taxi passengers who didn't want to keep the things they found in the taxi.
Shay. Yes, I was lucky to get both honest taxi driver and honest taxi passenger
What a relieve to hear that you had such a happy ending story. I agree with others that you were lucky enough to get your mobile phone back. Nice to hear that there are still some honest people living in this big city Thanks for sharing your story
