So I work a part time job late evenings at a pizza place. Cool, whatever.
Usually my mom picks me up because I work late and it's dark and I'm not old enough to drive. Cool, whatever.
Tonight, though, I work the usual shift, but both of my parents are going out and won't be home until a while after my shift ends. So they called a taxi.
And I am so scared.
I've only ever been in a taxi once, but I had, like, 3-4 other girls with me (It was for school, and only a few girls were going, enough to fill two taxis. So the teacher went in one with a few kids and the rest piled into the other one)
But this time I'm alone and so I have to watch for it, and then make sure it's mine and then pay him and stuff all by myself. Sounds a little dumb, I know, but I've never done that before. Like, what if I just walk into a car and it's not my taxi? Or he takes me the wrong way or I don't have the right amount of money or he's a foreigner and I can't understand his accent and he can't understand me? (I really super suck with accents) Or what if he's late? The one time I've been on a taxi, it was late, so what if this time they are too? And so I'm sitting awkwardly at the front waiting for a taxi or I miss it so we're both waiting?
I'm so paranoid, but I can't help it ;-;
