Friday Fictioneers: Jack and Jill

Published on by Yinglan

Please Note: this is 100% fiction!

Jack and Jill live in a modest two-bedroom house in a secluded neighborhood – one for sleeping, the other for business. What do they do for a living? They’re rickshaw-pulling-tour-guides and are paid handsomely for their hard work.

Each morning, they’d wake up early to pull their respective rickshaws to the most popular tourist attractions in town. There, they’d wait. It’s never long before tourists flock to their rickshaws. Then it was off they go to each location on an attraction map.

At the end of the day, tired and achy, they’d go home and count their fat rolls of cash.

    1. I actually saw this on a tour video of Japan on YouTube. Apparently, there is this sort of thing in Japan but I, too, wonder how lucrative the job is when it’s not tourist season. I guess they make as much as they can and save it for the off-season.

  4. Well done, Jack and Jill. I expect they are fit and hardy with all the outdoor exercise. In the off season I suspect they retreat to their holiday home for a well earned rest.
