Around 19 months ago when I was still driving for Uber, I picked up a woman (I’ll call her Diana) on a Saturday at around 11pm who I first thought couldn’t be more than 25-27 years of age, myself being 25. She was dressed in formal clothes like lose formal pants and a white half-sleeves shirt. Blonde, smooth shoulder length hair. *Pretty*, was my first thought. I didn’t check out her bodily curves etc.
Anyway, when she typed in the destination address, she said to me before it even updated on my phone, “that’s the correct address, I just don’t feel like going by bus or train. Just wanna get home ASAP.” I looked at the app and it showed a ride from Dallas downtown to Houston, nearly a 4 hour drive.
Before I can even begin processing, she goes on, “I’ll pay you a hundred bucks in cash when we get there.” Me, being the over-modest idiot I sometimes can be, replied “Well, if you pay just for the gas of my back and forth journey even then I’m grateful. Let’s get you home.”
