Offense Date: 8/7/2009
Charge: TAXI: VIOLATION OF COMPANY DRESS STANDARDS
Status: ALIAS WARRANT
Amount: $309.00
Convenience Fee: $2.00

This is part of my receipt for not wearing socks as a taxi driver. As a result I quit driving the cab...city lost $30 a day revenue for however long I might have kept driving...went back on unemployment...drawing bit over $800 every 2 weeks bored to death...tell me who won? Nobody IMO.

Keep in mind a lot of drivers in Dallas drive cabs wearin sandles in the summertime. They did me a favor by making me get to the point of seeing the futility of the cab business.

It was $195 rest is for missing court date I have no car to get there was part of the problem...if Dallas jail wasn't such a zoo I would have rode it out in jail. I figured if I got in some stupid fight in there I could very well get in real trouble. I drove transit bus here 11 years not sure I could put up with the cr*p. I was born here in 1961 never thought I'd grow to dislike this town.

Just peeking around here... looking for a lost thread.

I remember reading it. I remember posting to it. Just can't seem to find it now.
We killed it - we try to avoid political "debates" (partic ones that don't involve MBs) as they cause undue drama every time, sorry about that man but ppl were gettin ruffled already...

Any problems/questions regarding such please feel free to PM me ;)
