Who in the world are cabbies talking to on their cell phones all day? And how do they have enough to say?
I was in Orlando not too long ago and on cab rides to/from the airport, the cab drivers talked incessantly on their cell phones. They really only stopped to pay the tolls and unpack me from the car.
Each was speaking in another language. other than Spanish or French or something else that I at least could recognize, if not comprehend. So whomever they were speaking to had to be from the same country. And so if the person on the other line was from the same country, and if they were also a cab driver (because really, who has 45 minutes in the middle of the day just to talk?) then the cab company had to employ at least two people from the same country.
What are the odds of that?!

Very clever, Lauren. The answer to your question is actually quite simple. The cabbies spend most of the day on their cell phones networking and contacting various agencies trying to find a better job. Can you blame them?
ReplyDeleteI would guess they are calling other cabbies, who else has that much time to talk during the day?
ReplyDeletewe took a few cabs last weekend in denver and didn't really notice the calling phenomenon. of course we were really obnoxious and fully engaging the cabbies in our fun. :)
