A day in the Life of a Daycab Driver

I'm thinking I will.. With the time I took, I won't be doing the same route all the time, and there will probably be a lot of days I don't even drive but 8 hours will have me out of there at 2:30.. I think I'll love that part..

 

ew working nights. just the thought makes me cringe. my job i can start anywhere from 4am-5:30am, maybe 6 but thats pushing it (seriously its whenever i feel like going in). depending on my day i'm done between 1 and 3:30/4pm. for example today i clocked in at 5:35 and clocked out at 12:50. such a sweet deal cuz i'm on salary. however yesterday i clocked in at 5:15, didnt punch out until 3:45. yesterday i was not enjoying the fact that i'm on salary lol

 

seriously getting out of work in the early afternoon is friggin awesome. it's the best part about my job, you're gonna enjoy having all that time.

 

They sure did..haha..

I went to nights two years ago after four full years on days but I didn't have early start times available to me back then like I do now. You could be right though - we have dozens of line-haul runs every Saturday which is a great way to make up some of the pay cut if you want..

 

An 8 hour shift? Driving? How do you work that? I thought even the union jobs worked you 10 hours or so.

 

what is this "8 hour shift" you all speak of?

never heard of such a thing

 

8 and skate - 8 and the gate..hahaha.. Will be able to do it most of the time..

 

You know, I think you are really TRYING to make me feel bad here. And if I was still working (slaving) you would probably succeed!
