Tampa Taxi Shots

Most of Uber's money went to little Marco I have had this conversation many times with people in my taxi. The profile on the customer is a hipster, progressive, and a once supporter of Hillary Clinton. I try to explain that no matter how tight your jeans are; no matter how groomed your beard is: Uber does not support your politics. Uber was a major contributor to the Marco Rubio (extreme conservative) Presidential campaign. Believe me, your politics are yours but Uber does not care about your hipster lifestyle. All they care about is that you use their service at the detriment of the regulated companies that follow the law. In reality, you are a conservative but you just don't know it. How can I say that...look at this image and ask yourself if you believe in what Marco represents.

I am a regulated and law enforcement cleared driver This note shows who not to vote for in the last election if you believe in regulated business and industry. The politicians that are marked slashed in red are anti-business and they do not support the safety of the general population. If you notice my hack permit, that means I have been run through the NCIC crime data bank computer to ensure that I am not a dangerous fugitive. The percentage of criminals that drive Uber are very high. That is one of the reasons there are a million people signed up nationwide to driver for Uber, it is the only job they can get that does not background check. The bitch of it is that the politicians do not support background checks as well. Even the bitch Dana Young would rather her daughters ride with a child molester then a driver from a regulated company that screens its drivers thru law enforcement. Oh, it cost me $75 a year to renew my hack permit. This is something Uber drivers do not ...

Albert is a cab driver that follows the rules and pays his insurance, license, and operation fees Guest post by Albert Zee: Uber problem in Tampa Bay.....Taxi industry has been under siege since 2007-2008 due to economical collapse of 2008, then surge in new taxi cab start ups between 2010-204 which were still mostly operating according to all the rules and regulations prolonged recovery. Then uber came around with "great solution" to our transportation problems and said, what regulations, what commercial insurance, what background checks and what cars (we don't need to own any and our drivers don't need to be regulated because we are "rideshare" company), we will invade and steal the market by offering rides at half a price, we will put all those law obeying "taxi cartels" out of business by creating bogus press releases about advantages of uber, by lying to public, drivers and politicians, they don't know any better any ways. Curren...

Taxi companies are dying nationwide The oldest and one of the largest cab companies in America is up for sale. They were headed for bankruptcy as Uber and Lyft have taken all of the street business and the drivers have defected because they cannot make money. The politicians, that claim to be Democrats, have no courage and will not do what is right to protect the public, and a regulated industry.

We are entering a Neolithic age of capitalism. Oh, that is a Cuban cigar from Havana - against federal law to have one - Screw 'em ( Check my Twitter bar to view videos of my opinion on this ) The Tampa Airport Directors of Operations are screwing the local cab drivers up the ass. The local taxi companies have an exclusive contract on "transportation for hire" at the airport. The taxi companies pay $250,000 a year for the right to pick up. (You have to pay to play when it comes to the airport...unless you are Uber or Lyft). Uber pays ZERO $$$. Do you know that?  And they are allowed to pick up in the tunnel where we are banned from. In fact, an ADO told me that for every 1 fare we pick up, Uber picks up 11. That is an outrage. It is time that the drivers protect their own rights and the taxi companies need to support us in this. Let me explain: The taxi business is not going well in Tampa. It is worse than what is commonly known. If it were not for the Logistica...

Go to www.timfasano.com I heard United Cab was going to sue Uber and the HCPTC. I heard the drivers were going to sue Uber, Tampa Airport, HCPTC and others. Frankly, I am tired of hearing all this shit. Nobody really gives a fuck about this massive gypsy cab company. My only hope may be Donald Trump. I read that there are now over 1 million Uber drivers nationwide. That is an enormous figure. I think the only reason these people get this gig is because there are no jobs in the country that are worth a shit. I think what most of these drivers want is a good job with benefits. Perhaps, if that stuff was out there, the number of dumb shits doing the Uber gig would go way down. I know the ad says "get your side-hustle on." There is no hustle to what they do. Hustle is what I do on a daily basis to make my money. I have to ad lib the entire day and make opportunities happen. Sorry Uber scum...waiting for a ping is not a "hustle." Just keep working for your 50 c...

I did take some time off to be with family and good friends for the Halloween weekend. I needed the distraction. I am sure you know that the HCPTC has entered into a temporary agreement with Uber. They are not going to get far. What is not known is that United Cab is tired of this illegal shit - the cowardly commission and politicians - who are shaking in their boots because of Uber. We are not. United Cab has a court hearing next week in which we have filed for an injunctive relief under the fairness clause of the Florida Constitution. Under the current plan, Uber will still not follow the laws and regulations, and they will do what they want. Taxi companies will still have to pay exorbitant fees which Uber is not compelled to pay. Yes, we did have fun on the camping trip.

Justin was the ultimate cab driver I found this file on an old photo cd I have from 2003 when digital photography first came out. Justin was sitting next to me on the old Hyde Park 21 stand and telling me about the poker tournaments he had been winning. Justin was from "back in the day."

I was very happy for Trump and America. I knew the polls were rigged and the asshole media was lying to us. Finally, we have a real president. I see God's hand in this.

Let's see if this published correctly. This is Tampa Bay this morning.

I just saw it live on a livestream in Reno. A guy pulled a gun and the storm troopers came out and pushed Trump off the stage. They got the guy and it looked scary. That was right after Trump accused the guy of working for Hillary Clinton for $1,500. Can you believe it. USA! You can see it here at Right Side Broadcasting The Hillary paid assassin being led off by Reno police

Dana Young swore the safest form of transportation for women was Uber. It seems many women are not so sure of that. In fact, many Uber women riders are now requesting female only drivers . Uber said they will look into that. Unfortunately, for Uber, that would be no different than wanting a white only driver. Sorry folks, you cannot have it any way you want it.

A very bad person with no honor or integrity I attended a meeting at the hockey arena downtown which was attended by all the Tampa Bay area state senators and representatives. In attendance was one Dana Young (R). When it was her time to speak, so told a story about a young women that was being raped. While the college student was being sexually assaulted, the student hit the Uber app on her phone and the police now knew the GPS coordinates of her location. What MS. Young did not disclose was that it happened on the UCLA campus and that it was an UBER DRIVER THAT WAS RAPING HER! "As students prepare to return to college, one thing female students cannot go without is caution. Assaults, especially sexual assaults, are a haunting part of daily life for so many students. Uber has made that nightmare even more of a reality . We tell our students that getting a driver when they’ve had too much to drink is the responsible course of action — it’...

Tim and his new friend This guy is a new attendee to our annual Halloween Bigfoot camping trip. We always do it on the last weekend if October. That is the time of year when the weather changes for the better. I mean it finally gets cooler.
