And. Now for some logistical notes.

The taxi owner has decided to take over the night shift. He wants the extra money that the fare increase would suggest he might make.

I am not ready to move to Burlington. Nor am I ready to explore the legit job market in the nyc area. There's been quite a bit of tension between me and taxi owner, who incidentally, is also my roommate. A word of advice. It's probably a bad idea to do business with someone you live with.

I am being offered a 7-day week on the day shift. No less. I'm peeved at having to drive day shift in order to save myself a commute, and inevitably paying an ass-ton (in advance, of course) to my old fleet/garage to work in a taxi that might be champion-level, or a piece of trash. There's no telling.

So I guess it's days for me. I've never been good at structuring my time, but day shift demands far more discipline than night shift, in many ways. I might benefit from the experience. Who knows?

There's a driver at my old garage that invariably would end up saying (regarding the job), "It's all bullshit."

Goddamn right.
