Not in Bali but this was really weird I thought. We, at the time, owned and drove 2 taxis and had the unfortunate task of arranging my father in law's funeral. The funeral director was a family member and when it came to filling in the forms she would not, just would not, write down Taxi driver or even taxi owner/driver. She insisted on calling my better half a company director!!!!! Just didn't want to own up to having taxi drivers in the family I guess.

I used to get a good laugh out of the reactions in Bali to me being a female who drives taxis!!! They are much happier for me now I can write down "retired".
