I appreciate the compliment. i wish it was that cool in my cab. I do have some great conversations, and have been on a soapbx or two. My best advice was telling parents how to navigate the beauracracy, that is our public school placemnt system, aka lottery.
Truth is, most of my advice is to people who are irratating. I got asked by a woman, of low self esttem and high gold digging aspirations, if she should see a certain man again, for a second date. She told me the guy came down here from Napa to date her, and was demanding sex after drinks. you'd think this was a no brainer, but she included, he's a surgeon, and repeated it a few times. She wasn't asking a rhetorical question, she was really not sure. I had to point out to her, in a very condescending way, that she never even mtold me if the guy was attractive, or interesting, she gave me his reume... There's a nickame for these type of people, mostly women, the W-2 Girls.
I'd like to think that people like this don't exist, in fact, I have to think this most of the time. BUT!!! they continue to take cabs, so i'm forced to accept the existance of idiots and shallow fools. Now imagine, meeting people at lightning speeds, in diverse as imaginable profiles and descriptions. Truth is only about 1% of interesting. In the course of a year, we'd be lucky if we got more than two hours worth of interesting to watch stuff, like you picture on TV cab shows ect... Truth is, those shows are contrived.
It keeps getting harder and harder for me. I literally am passing people up b/c I don't like the way they flag a cab. You just put your arm up and wait for the cab to pull over right? One would think, you'd be amazed at what people do, and then they wonder why I drive by them. If they are that retarded in public, god knows how annoying they will be while I'm trapped in a car with them for the longest ten minutes imaginable. Too ften I have to tell annoying ignorant people to shut p. And when they are shocked and self righteous, I point out, calmly, I am this cabs HR Dept. and you're behaviour is out of line. My job is like that of the substitute teacher and the really cool older brother all mixed together... As you see, it does help my posting skills and my advice giving capabilties!!!
well it is very interesting job you have. I imagine you would become quite philosophical over time, and yes, we as human, tend to stereotype people. For instance, No black man in DC can hail a cab going east. It is profiling at its worst. I guess its human nature to try and
minimize your difficulties based on past experience.
anyway, at least you have less self-righteous lawyer yuppies than over here.

you forgot to put /img blah \img
don't listen to em Gorda. go to www.zappos.com and buy some shoes/boots. You'll feel much better and do less damage to your fragile heart.
