I only need to think back several years before I started driving cab, observing taxis in a lineup waiting for fares, and thinking that I'd hate that job... Now, after more than thirty years of experience doing the job, I don't mind waiting and relaxing between fares. It beats being rushed and going long distances empty to go and pick up customers who have already disappeared...
It's so nice you can get some sleep between trips.
It has become a routine occurrence...
I admire your patience at times, I would have real problems waiting as you do for fares and customers.

Unfortunately not. Things are really slow. 3 - 5 trips a day isnt uncommon. Thankfully a few hour long trips have occurred which makes up for it.
Those few longer ones are the ones that save us...

My chances of winning are only slightly worse than they would be if I actually bought a ticket...
