Episode 35: Life as a Grab Driver ft. Francis Bernard

Hello, friends! You know that moment when you stepped into a Grab and you begin to wonder on how they’ve started their job as, and how their life is, and what do they do on their free time, their hobbies, and et cetera. If you’re into all that, well here’s one for you. Meet my uncle Francis, who is a Grab driver for three years temporarily taking his time-off from architecture. Whilst doing so, he has met and heard many stories both good and bad, and stories of what makes Francis, Francis. :D So, grab your beer (or if you’re like me in the video, I drank Iced Lemon Tea & recuperating after a heavy night out prior to the recording day haha TMI), come hang out with us as we dive into his life on-and-off from his car as a Grab driver.
