An Open Letter to Cab Drivers Everywhere:

[wednes]

Dear Cab Drivers:

We spend a lot of time together, you's and I. I respect you and the job you do...honest. But i have a few helpful suggestions that will make out next trip better, and perhaps the trips of other passengers as well.

Please bathe at least once per week.

If you don't know where you're going, its okay to ask me...before you overcharge me, please.

Please do not pick up your buddies until I get out of the car, they are gross.

When the radio only gets static, increasing the volume will not make it become clear.

While I am not eavesdropping on your cell phone conversations, I can hear you...so please no swearing at your kids or their mommas, no drug deals, no complaining about cab driving or the customers you face, and for gods sake, no phonesex until I get out of the car!

I'm glad you and Jesus have found eachother, I don't want to know about it.

If you still think I'm going to hell because my boyfriend is "that black guy" please, keep it to yourself.

if you find my dope, please give it back to me.

If I want to have a long boring conversation with you about my job, I will initiate it.

Thank you, and keep on cabbin'

--Your loyal passenger


In other news, halloween plans are coming along nicely. i'm going shopping for makeups tonight and got a few for free form the Women's Centre where I have my therapy. the chick who is my therapist is cool, I like her more each session...very positive, but not irritatingly so.
And h loved his sweetest day gifts. I know last week was boss's day, but I blew off my HHB. Now that he has a girlffiend, I kind of feel like a tool getting him gifts...

Please tell me that all happened within the span of one cab ride to work (.5mi). That would truly have made this the post of the day. I know you didn't work, but I thought that would be funny.

They should call H that big strong, but gentle and clever guy. Fuck those dickface cabbies.

I agree. At work, we have one black employee. I generally call her by her first name. Someone said she thought "the black girl" short changed her (she did but it was an accident and she realized it after the lady was gone, put it in an envelope and wrote a note to the manager). Just to be a jerk I was like. "How tall was she about? How was her hair fixed? Did she have glasses on? Were her eyes green or brown?" the customer was like "I don't know, she was just black." Some people.
