oh dear Lord.......

I would die.....it was 22f down in the panhandle of Florida, and I thought it was the end of the world.

Canadians have to be the toughest people..........

Dude, I'm so sorry- that is miserable! We are finally getting above freezing (3 days in a row in the upper 30's- go us!) and it feels like a heat wave..... hang in there!

and you know there is some dumb ass white guy wearing shorts and flip flops up there.. LOL

Yeah, that would be my husband usually- he is the guy that wears shorts in the winter, he is always hot. But it's been cold enough for even him to wear pants, and he even wore a coat on one day. So, you know it's bitter ass cold if even he isn't pulling that shit, lol.

Cindy. Stay safe. That’s sounds dangerous.

I hear ya. Two days ago it was sunny and 73 degrees- today it's 5 degrees and we got just enough snow to make the roads slicker than snot. Is it spring YET???

We have just had a 30 degree weather swing, yesterday I had my windows open, today it my hands are frozen after walking across the parking lot at work. They are calling for anywhere between 5cm & 50cm of snow this weekend. So done

 
Big storm coming to my area tonight and I love it!!!
I’ll be on the road till 300 am driving with my nifty snow tires!
👍

 
Yikes Cindy, be safe? What do you do that has you out so late?

Podcast was so good! How was Dateline?

So crazy story! I took a cab the other night and it was a woman (early 30s probably, very pretty) and she had a guy wanted to take her down town where we live, then to another city about 2hrs away. When they got to the first spot, she said you pay my now ($12) or the fair to the next place ($350) up front. Hes like no no, I'm good for it, it'll be a fun ride looking at her chest the whole time. She knew things were shady, so turned her radio on and stuck it under her leg so dispatch could here what was going on. She kept repeating where she was and what he needed so they knew there was an issue. Two other drivers came down, the guy hit one and the other knocked him out. They called the cops and the guy took off. Cops brought him back and said "You still owe her $12....then we're taking you in!" lol

Insane!! Yeah, that is the kind of shit that would happen to me if I tried to be an Uber driver. I'd probably get dudes who are twice my size being skeezy and not paying me or something, and I wouldn't always know how to handle it. I mean, I know basic self defense but when someone is twice your size (I'm just not a very big person, even for a woman) you don't always stand much of a chance. I just don't trust people very much, especially men I don't know (sorry Karma- you are excluded from this though, I know you aren't a creeper!) because I've had too many uncomfortable, borderline scary experiences. I just don't have the balls to be a driver- pun intended. 
 

Lyft and Uber Run different then a cab, you pay with an app over the phone no money is exchanged. I have a dash camera that is on when I drive it records the road and the back seat of my car, I also have a Taser under my steering wheel. I have NEVER has a problem that I could not handle, just drunk boys can be annoying. But I do have a bunch of very funny storys from doing this. I started this crazy venture when I was lobbying for Lyft to come back to our city 4 years ago. I went to Albany with representatives for lyft and spoke on the behalf of our bars/restaurants  and other businesses that would befit from having rideshare back in our city after it was taken away. Not to Mention cabs are very expensive and unsafe here. We won!! Rideshare in now back in upstate NY and I have been driving part time now for about 7 months. I really enjoy driving and meeting people most of the passangers are 20 something kids going to the bars on the weekends and they crack me up. it also keeps me in the loop of the hot stops and stuff going on in the city. It helps that my kids are out also and now they have Mom driving them around for free!!! LOL
Its a win for the city and Drunk driving numbers have are falling I love making sure all these kids get around safe.

Oh yeah, that's right- I pay through the app, I forgot about that for a minute. Funny story- the first Uber driver we had in our town was our mayor, lmao. He is doing it as side hustle so his wife can expand her bakery.  He said he likes doing it, but drunk people bitch at him about everything they hate that the city does while he is driving them.
