BREAKING: Uber 65¢ a mile in Tampa (how low can you go?)

Uber is screwing their Tampa drivers up the ass. They have lowered their rates 30% to 65 measly cents a mile. Drivers now get 20 bucks from downtown Tampa to St Petersburg... Big deal. Minus gas, time, insurance, maintenance, wear and tear, federal income tax, social security, workman's compensation, and you have what's left in your baby's diaper. In a word: Uber drivers are desperate.

This is what one Tampa Uber driver said on the boards:

"Uber is a thermometer of what this country has become.
We are scavangers....
Everbody is doing this UBER CRAP because there is only one reality, THERE IS NO JOB or just FEW JOBS out there.
This country can measure the desperation of its people with UBER, like the economist who measure the economics of the world by the McDonald's Big Mac, same concept"

A few posts back you claim to be homeless, broke and not making any money. And now you claim to say you are moving to a condo in Clearwater? Your stories don't add up. Considering you drive a cab in Tampa with all the traffic in that part of Clearwater plus the more money you will have to spend on gas going back and forth from Tampa..not to bright! Down the street from the Long Center pool is a Salvation Army that should help you when you are homeless again!

Happy Hillary Halloween

Is there anything scarier than Hillary. Some would say Donald Trump, perhaps. My friend set this up on his porch and I thought it was pretty cool. It's not really a political statement, it's just trying to show humor. Keep in mind, that we do live in an era where people seem to have lost their sense of humor. Anyway, if he done it with Donald Trump I would have still laughed. Happy Halloween!

Gabriel

Elena wanted me to post photos from Gabriel's first birthday party. Sorry I did not take more images but my phone went dead. Here is a stressed out hippy mama. You got to admit, Gabriel is a handsome young man. posted from Bloggeroid

2016 is 1984

We know the laws of physics, gravity, time itself is dependent on the bearing of the observer. If once immutable laws are relative, is our past an illusion? What if everything you ever experienced was just a product of your mind?. Orwell's posters are gas lighting tactics used by the intolerant left to make you think what you know is real is not. They want you to reject what all the great thinkers for two thousands years have agreed on. Our history is going. The posters are being removed like Buddha's in the Afghanistan desert, The weapons of conquest are not simply bullets and bombs. Rework prejudice, and hate against once eternal standards and you have weapons more powerful than nuclear energy because they are now found only in the minds of men. The omnipotent is now man, not a natural law allowing man determination. We are moving closer to jail. The free thinkers (conservatives) are now "the cool kids." They say bad words. They are free to be afraid. Thos...

Yankee spring training photo shoot

I was in downtown Tampa this afternoon and saw a photographer working with a model in a skimpy baseball uniform. It had to be for some New York publication. The Yankees are here for spring training. There had to be a connection. She did have nice legs. posted from Bloggeroid

BREAKING: HILLARY COLLAPSES IN NYC, STRUGGLES TO WALK, LOSES SHOE, RUSHE...

And you thought I was full of shit. Hillary is dying and needs to go to hospice and let the Presidency go to a more fit person. The lies are beyond belief. You liberals would vote for her if she was dead on election night and in a coffin. Alvin Toffler was right.

Monday morning

Business has been slow. I'm not going to beat around the bush. I need shoes and shoe strings. I am broke and struggling. I am tired, frustrated, and dealing with real anger issues. I need time off, money, and rest. I can find none of this. My entire situation sucks. I want to blame someone. What compounds all of this are drivers willing to work around the clock for scant money (that forces me to do the same). I am exhausted and wish I could get a break. I do think one is coming up. United Cab is doing all they can do but the economy has greatly increased their expenses. I do hope to have a happier post at the end if the day.

Saturday night in Tampa

I thought I was a dirty old man. "The Senator' takes the cake because he is real (friend of the taxi man), 58 years old, and gets massive ass. He is a legend at the Castle in Ybor City, and in Tampa pop culture. Pop for his hard-on he sports in the clubs. I was going to say it takes balls to do what he does, but balls it is. Hay, I got a thong and a Cuban cigar. Monica would be happy (sorry for the 1997 reference,).

Tampa from behind the wheel of a taxi cab
