A valuable tip for a trip!

I took a cab from a store back to the hotel. The store is pretty close by (an 8 min drive) but I usually take a cab as I do not prefer to walk alone down any street. It was a little after a winter sunset and the chauffeur pulled the cab aside and called out that I was at the hotel I mentioned. I re-iterated the address and told him there is another phase at the address I specified. For a moment he tried to convince me that this is the place and wanted me to look for my room. In hardly less than a minute he understood he was wrong. The other phase is just around the corner and is hardly a 2 minute drive. On reaching the hotel I stay in, I checked the meter reading and offered to pay the reading, plus a tip. But he refused to take the tip (tip was not bad at all) or the full amount the meter reads stating, “I apologise for mistaking the address, confusing you and wasting those few minutes of yours. I must have freaked you out with my comments.” I told him I have been here for some time now and did not really panic when I was at a similar looking place. But he refused to take the tip or the full amount. When I tried to convince him that it is okay and he need not be so sorry. He smiled and said, “Okay, you have already paid a tip of 2 mins of chaos and an overall 5 mins of yours. That’s valuable. Thank you”. I could not help but smile and wised him good time. He is one among the very few who value time to this precession.
