    While I got there in the end, and purchased a Hyundai Ioniq6 in December 2023, I figured I would tell the story of purchasing a new vehicle, and an EV at that, in today's car market. I suppose I could have purchased a Tesla online and filled in the $5000 ZEV Credit to the Federal Government...

    A strange incident today at Heartland TownCentre in Mississauga, Big Rig Brewpub, 11:30pm: I get a ping to the east side of Mavis south of Britannia, which is usually a Walmart ping, and at this time of night, it is typically an employee, not a shopper, going home to Brampton. I'm fine with...

    So I was 17 points from Platinum Status this morning, so I turned the UBER App on after noon, looking to get 6 short rides at 3 points a piece -- to lock in Platinum until the end of January 2021. Got a couple short rides while I did my Sunday errands. Eventually, I got a ride to Pearson...

    Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Sunday Night. 8pm. 36 degrees Celcius. Humid as Hell on bad hair day. I get a ping to a Hotel on Winston Churchill Boulevard @ QEW Highway. Pax Name: "Amber." I arrive at Hotel, main lobby round-about, which looks completely vacant and sad, and click the pink...

    Lady sends back food delivered to her as prank. She said some guys would send her UBEReats in the middle of the night as a prank. Apparently this happens often to her. She tipped me $25 to return the food to the guy who ordered it for her. So I sent her this. Best customer interaction by far.

    Once upon a time there was a young woman who believed in fairy tales named Alice. She had read a whopper of a tale, something about how the average Uber driver in NYC makes $90,000 per year, and how easy and fun it was to make "great money" during her free time. She doesn't live in NYC, but her...

    I don't respond well to bullies - in that I don't let them bully me I tend to extract myself from the situation. Tonight, I was taken aback by the sheer rudeness of a shopkeeper I was taking TWO deliveries from. I've been there for deliveries before and he seemed okay - I was alway polite and...

    Had a pax this evening that set his destination for the local prison. Started the conversation saying he's been on the run for just too many years now. He said he wants to to turn himself in and face justice. He said it's just too hard always looking over your shoulder for a cop that might...

    (Part 1 of 2) My time as a 'full time Uber driver' is coming to an end soon as I start a new job on Tuesday; but I wanted to expand on having done this Uber driving thing. A smart, successful man once said “If you want a real education, finish a four-year degree then go drive a taxi for six...

    Okay... So I set out this morning after watching the Rider App for awhile and seeing for over an hour that there were consistently 7 or 8 Select drivers within just a few miles of my location. I thought "well, this is my first day, so I'll just head out and see what happens". I needed to fuel...

    First ride last night was a pick-up at a Starbucks. "J" comes running in the rain with two drinks in her hand (both with lids) and as she gets in says, "This is a hot chocolate for you. Figured you'd like something on a rainy night." Almost restored my faith in humanity. Near the end of the...
