True Cab Stories!

The following is the first of a series of stories I wrote in '07  -guitar_d

Hi, I'm a cab driver in San Diego.   I've been driving for almost four years now.  A lot of weird stuff happens in the city at night that I get to see.  Now you will know what I see also.   Being a night time cab driver is the weirdest job I’ve ever had.  Strange things happen after midnight...

  I’m a lease driver.  That means I don’t really work for the Company.  I’m basically an independent operator.  I decide where, when, how, and how long I work.  I don't have a boss.  I have just one co-worker, the dispatcher.  I don’t get benefits and the company doesn’t hold aside taxes.  The company doesn’t pay me at all.  I pay a lease and all money I’ve taken in above and beyond my lease from my fares is mine.

This blog will be a series of true stories of what I've encountered on the streets.  Check it out often, cuz there's always more!
