This is the story shared by an 'on-line taxi' driver during my recent trip.
On 10/03/2016 morning Mukesh a 'on-line taxi' driver receives a booking from Jyothi Nivas College area, Bangalore. Mukesh reaches the pick up point shown in the app in five minutes. Unable to find the customer , Mukesh dials customer's number.
Then the fun starts...
Mukesh: Hi Sir, I am near Jyothi Nivas College. Where are you?
Customer: Ok come to Bajrang hotel. I am waiting here.
M: Bajrang hotel? Sorry sir, I don't know the place, please give me some other landmark.
C: Arey you don't know Bajrang hotel. What kind of driver are you? It is very famous in Gurgaon.
M(Shocked): Gurgaon!!!. Sir I am in Bangalore now
C: Ok No problem, come to Bajrang hotel. I can wait.
M: Sir please book my flight ticket and mail me.Also transfer Rs.10000 to my account. I will start my journey right away.
C: What non-sense are you talking?
M: Then what should I do sir? Gurgaon is 3000km away from Bangalore.
C: Oh god? How did this happen?
M: I don't know sir, you have to check with *** (taxi provider).
Call ends.
Some software bugs can result in real funny situation, isn't it?...:D
