Wednesday (third day of internship)
Today is the third day I intern. Incidentally today is the feast of Eid al-Adha for Muslims. I left as usual at 7.30 and arrived at the airport at 8. When I got out of the van and walked to the office, suddenly a tourist from Turkey called me. And say :
Can you speak english
Yes Why?
Apparently he asked where the nearest mosque was from the airport because he wanted to do Eid al-Adha prayer. I tried to show on the 3rd floor. But he did not want to, the only thing he wanted was to go to the mosque because he also wanted to see the slaughter of sacrificial animals there. I also tried to find information through the internet. But to be more valid I invite them to the office, maybe the tourist police understand the area better because they are the original from Thailand. After I took it to the office, the police were confused and didn't know what a mosque was. I also explained that it was a place of worship for Muslims like Buddha who worshiped at the temple. Finally the police understood. And I showed that I found a mosque through internet information but didn't know how to get there. The police indicated that they could ride a taxi, but it was expensive. And they want to take the bus. But that is not possible because there are no buses going there. Finally I suggest you can use taxi services, and you can joint venture. It's safer for you and comfortable. Instead of you having to take a bus. Because the bus can't stop anywhere and there is also a lack of Thai citizens who don't know about English so they are afraid they can't provide the information that is suitable for you. But if you take a taxi, I can help with the way to order, and I'll help talking to the taxi driver about where you are going. They nodded in agreement. Alhamdulillah, this day's joy can help people especially for good purposes.
then today's activities are not much different from our activities as usual. That is in the morning we are ready for taxi checkin. Monitor whether the meter is alive or not along with the driver's complete documents. And early in the morning we have encountered a case problem. Where there is a real driver he does not commit fraud but he is guilty of making transactions at the beginning with the customer so that this is why the arguments are not turned on. When we take the taxi, the tourist was confused, I was also a representative of the touris police who at that time was tasked with trying to help explain the rules that apply here. But he did not want to be blamed, because the tax driver had agreed to the offer at the beginning. We know, but somehow the rules must be upheld. And with a heavy heart the driver must be processed to the office further. As well as being fined 1000bath so that he feels deterred.
12.00 we start checking points. drive around the airport to control and report at each specific point where there is a barcode for the tourist police. Meanwhile, we also help tourists, provide information about the domestic terminal section and about places that sell halal food here.
after that we returned to the office to make a report.
