dumb THEN dumber

Mang Dani started working as our driver 5 years ago. I was in grade 7 back then, still naive to all things, but I already sensed the stupidity of the driver. We were in Ilocos Norte (imagine how far that is from home) when he locked the key inside the car. I thought that was the end of seeing civilization for me. Good thing dad was there to lockpick the car (how'd he learn that? hmm)

In high school, mang Dani left me in school. When I saw the car in the driveway, i ran to my classroom and said my goodbyes. When i ran back to the driverway, the car was gone.

"Nasan ka na?" I said.

"Nasa hawiian" He said.

"Ernest (my classmate), saan yung hawiian?" I asked

"Wala ata siya sa Ateneo, eh" Ernest replied.

In my fourth year in high school, Mang dani drove in second gear in katipunan ave. What the f****.

Then, just last week, Mang Dani resigned through text.
"Ma'm, hindi na ako papasok."
And the reason for that was "galit ako kila FE (our maid)!"
What the f***

Mang dani never returned even though he doesn't have any other job. Maybe he just wanted to escape the 6k debt he owe us. Asshole.

Just last monday, Mang dani was replaced by Mang Chito, an old chubby manong with curly hair. I thought he was going to be a good replacement because by his appearance, he might be aged with wisdom in driving. But on his second day of his job, he hit a car. On the fourth day, he hit a rock which destroyed the van's extra step (the step to help the passenger get in the sliding door). On the fifth day, he broke the sliding door's handle. There's a huge crack on the door handle and it's impossible to open it from inside. The handle can now be separated from the door like LEGO blocks. At least he's going to be opening the door from now on. But he's still an asshole.

I think next week I'm scheduled for a total wreck. Three times.
