An economic dispute with a driver; a diamonds and an intuition. A drawing from the practice of participating in economic disputes.
Andrey served as a representative of several organizations in economic disputes.
He did not have his own car and driver's license. So he occasionally had to "catch" the car and get to his destination in an official or unofficial taxi.
Sometimes the loading with a huge amount of professional information was such that there was no time, resources of attention to think about something else to analyze the details of everyday life.
It seems that on that day there was a court hearing of some case, and all Andrey's thoughts were occupied with the details of this case.
Andrey stood at a public transport stop and was clearly late. He decided to "catch" the car.
A car drove up, of common brands, with tinted windows.
Andrey did not look around, examine the driver, and even if he did look at him, he did not attach importance to the details. Andrey sat down in the front right seat and agreed on payment.
It cost 300 rubles to get to the destination.
The day turned out to be busy and hectic, and Andrey behaved restlessly.
When the car reached an intersection, Andrei asked how the driver intended to go further. The driver answered.
Andrey advised to take a different route, which had its advantages. The route offered by Andrey almost did not make any difference in terms of mileage.
The driver asked where to turn. Andrey explained.
Upon reaching the destination, the driver announced a new price for the trip. She has grown dramatically. It seems, something like 1000 rubles.
It was offensive for Andrey. This was clearly a throwery, a scam. A trip along a different route, even if it lengthened the path, then by 5-10 percent, no more.
But the driver referred to the fact that he changed the route at the request of Andrey. There was no agreement on a "new" trip, a "new" trip costs a new price.
Andrey tried to object.
A kind of economic dispute arose. Another? New?
The driver took out his cell phone and invited a group of support, friends.
From that moment on, the dispute lost its meaning.
Apparently, intuition finally turned on.
Andrey began to convince the driver that there were no grounds for a dispute. This is not a diamond trade! It's not a selling of diamonds! What is there to argue about?
At the mention of the deals with diamonds, a something lightly changed in the driver's behavior.
Feeling that he had said something convincing for the driver, Andrey handed the driver the promised 300 rubles, added another 100 rubles to them as a gesture of goodwill, and got out of the car.
It seems that at this unpleasant moment, the professional overload stepped aside for a while and made it possible for intuition to be upconnected ...
