That Wonderful Time Of Year.....

When the frat brats disappear to go home for the holidays. Chandler Law Group pays Yellow Cab to monopolize the taxi business for a few weeks. And other cab drivers work 14 hours for gas money. Blah. I'm on a split vacation.... Working a couple days between now and New Year's Eve, but that's it.

I would like to take this opportunity (if anyone reads this blog) to implore you to not drink and drive this holiday season. If you don't value yourself enough, think of your family and friends. Think of the families and friends of those you might kill by driving drunk. Think of the embarrassment and shame of being arrested, or knowing that you killed someone in a crash. Think of losing your job in this economy (Yes, some places will fire you for having a felony. DUI is just that).

None of this is worth saving the money on cab fare. Eat, drink, and be merry. But if you've had too much to drink, take a cab, or better yet, just don't go anywhere.

How Much More Can I Take?

Without a doubt, this just was not my day. 7 hours to get one fare from the airport, which went 3 miles. Even with a minimum airport charge of $25.00, it wasn't worth it..... I worked 11 hours tonight for $47 and a "fuck you, I'll stand in the street if I want to" from a group of frat brats. This, after I almost hit their stupid asses standing in a poorly-lit street, wearing all black. Smart?!!!
