For example, when he found out what his daughter had done , he “trashed” her , “slapped her till like hell” and beat her too. this means that he is short tempered too. The taximan is also very hypocritical.Although he judges the younger generations like the SPGs and their boyfriends, he still takes advantages of them to easn loney. Like he brought tourists “round and round and charged them by meter” as the passengers were unaware of it and earned extra money by telling where the tourists should go which means he is mercenary. ]]> 2018-08-20 01:36:34 UTC https://padlet.com/MsStella/je114wxh87ai/wish/273953288 https://padlet.com/MsStella/je114wxh87ai/wish/273953303 P • The taximan is hypocritical.
E • “Must go off to Hotel Elroy - there plenty young people to pick up. (Pg 100). “I rush up to this wicked daughter and i catch her by the shoulders and neck, and slap her and she scream, but i don’t care. (Pg 99)
E •Although he rails againts the loose morals of the younger generation, he is eager to cash in on their activities.
He scolds his daughter when he catches her daughter hanging around with the tourists man. However he is the one who fools people to earn extra money.
L • Hence he is hypocritical as he scolds his 
daughter when she meets foreigners but on the other hand he takes the tourists money to drive them and their gf’s around.]]> 2018-08-20 01:36:44 UTC https://padlet.com/MsStella/je114wxh87ai/wish/273953303 https://padlet.com/MsStella/je114wxh87ai/wish/273953368 P: The Taximan is very violent 
E:(pg99)"Then I drag her to my taxi and drive all the way home, and at home I thrash the stupid fool and I beat her and slap her till like hell. "

E : In the story itself, he is constantly criticising the younger generations, about the bad things that they do. He only views them very negatively such as he thinks " they are only school boys and school girls, but they act like big shots, spending money, smoking, wearing latest fashion and making love "( page 97 ) 
E : This only happened mainly because the young people back then in his generation do not act like this and they also had strict discipline from their parents. In this mindset, he criticises on the younger generation and expects them to be as disciplined as the younger generation back then.
L : Hence, this shows that he is only focusing on the negative side of the younger people in this younger generation and only voice out on their negative habits
