Amazon taxis
I was at work and we were creating pieces that were going to be part of a show. I was organising illustrating a book with cutout characters. We needed about 12. A few people helped me and we got 20 done. Some were too 3D though, so I asked my boss and he said we’d just put them in a polythene bag alongside the book.
We went and did a live show. I was hosting with someone else. They had a normal microphone but mine was a long thin one with a microphone on top. I pointed out it was like Terry Wigan’s one on Blankety Blank. The sound cover at the top kept falling off and getting damaged. By the end I just had to leave it off.
After I got a taxi into town with Mike, mom and Nan. On the way back, we went to get a taxi and Nan rushed off on her own. When I caught up to her, she’d fallen over. I helped her up and had a bit of a go at her, saying how she’d rushed off and it was pointless because when she got there she’d have to stand around in the cold waiting for us to catch up, which would be bad for her knees. I also pointed out we didn’t know where she was going so we couldn’t order a taxi. I asked what her plan was and she said “We could’ve just got an Amazon taxi.” I shouted that Amazon don’t do taxis, then more calmly told her “I know you don’t know these technology companies, but Amazon have never done taxis.”
