Mitfahrzentrale - Agency For Arranging Lifts
The idea of such a government agency existing is quite wonderful. Imagine needing to get to a dentist’s appointment ten miles away on a day the busses aren‘t running. Reschedule, you might say, and sure, that would be the easiest thing to do, but harder for me to shoehorn in a poorly constructed joke. If you could just call a national helpline that’d get you a ride when you’re in a bind, it’d be fantastically convenient. Isn’t that just a taxi? I hear you mentally scream at this page. Actually, the fact I can hear that is enough to make me stop writing this drivel and advertise my services on the internet. Not quite sure how I’d market it, but I’ll think about it passively as I attempt to get back into piece. Well, yes, a taxi would be the logical solution were you to be stuck in such a predicament. However, taxi drivers need paying, and paying costs money. Money you certainly won’t have if you’re shelling out for any kind of dental work. The Agency For Arranging Lifts would pay for everything, ensuring our free travel is provided by the UK tax payer. While some may argue that’s not particularly fair, just think of the jobs created at the Agency! Providing several new jobs as well as ensuring dental appointments are kept and dentists get paid will surely help massively in the fight to drag Britain out of our current financial crisis. And if that fails, I’ll simply sell my bizarre mind-reading skills to the highest bidder and donate a small proportion of my profits to the UK’s coffers. Everyone’s a winner. Except the taxi drivers - but screw them, they’re probably bastards anyway.
