la wen wasil

In this post i will not talk about how a servis driver drives or the state of his car, i will not mention how he respects the laws and the people around him. I will complain about how many times he blows the horn or how annoying it is to be stuck behind him while driving. I will forget the B.Os and inevitable talk about fuel prices.The fore mentioned characteristics are known to everyone they are the foundations of your average stereotypical servis driver so there is no need to go deep. What i will discuss is remarkable. Many might have noticed it before but only until lately i was able to figure it out. A lot of servis drivers are not servis drivers by trade. They all were millionaires, doctors, engineers, businessmen. Most of them lived for years in europe the gulf region or even the U.S.A.Some will say gambling got them to where they are other will blame a woman and others will tell you stories of how some guy somewhere (mainly a family member or at least of lebanese origins)screwed them over because they were kind-hearted. Some will try to prove it by mentioning facts or just squeezing in some technical words. Even if your education was minimal you will notice that their facts are wrong and the words they use have nothing to do with their claimed field of expertise. Those stories might be true for some but for the majority of drivers they just are not. Drivers might either use the stories to create a false identity or just for entertainment. Whatever the reason is, 3andak m3alim there is nothing wrong in being just a plain sevis driver.
