The Education of a Cab Driver

By: Ashlin, Paul

This is not a textbook on how to drive a cab. This is the experience of Paul, who after being downsized from his job, went from one odd job to another. He made this work, but it was only making ends meet. He needed more. So, why not give cab driving a shot?

Like any new profession, there is a learning curve -- an education that happens. There is always a gap between what you think something will be like, and what the reality is actually like. Every job has the good, the bad and the ugly. Cab driving has these in spades.

The colorful characters Paul encounters create humorous, thrilling, and sometimes heartbreaking situations. Others, may restore your hope in humanity. Doing the right thing comes down to choice, and sometimes that choice saves your life. Sometimes, the choice is forced upon you. Is this fate? Or, is it a force we can't see? One of Paul's rides ended with a rider whispering in his ear, "You must have a fucking guardian angel?" Maybe? What's a guardian angel?

Within these pages, is a mix of odd characters, money, and the possibility of death, creating a rich soup of entertaining, surprising, and thrilling tales. Enjoy
