Exactly, you assumed the cabbie was going to be there on time and didn't make alternate plans and you let it ruin your day. Hey at least you admit it, I give you credit for that.

2 fucking funny :thumbsup

Getting taxi service to my place has become a total pain in the ass lately. They always show up late and since I live next door to a restaurant half the time they pick up the wrong person. I've had the same thing Sleazy describe happen a few times now.

So lately I've been using a Limo service instead. It's just a guy that owns both a Limo and Towncar and will take you where ever just like a regular taxi would but you don't have to pay per hour charges like most Limo's do.

It's like $40 to use the service instead of $25 for a taxi but I figure it's worth the extra $15. Plus it's kinda fun to arrive in style by limo, lol.

We had this thing planned for a couple months, since the tickets went on sale...there was no way I was going for a 6 hour drive all the way to the Air Canada Centre and back and not having a beer.

Ontario now has some of the toughest drunk driving laws in the world for first offenders. That's the reason we went the limo route to begin with. I like to have a few beers. Big deal.

Plus I couldn't find my way around Toronto if my life depended on it.

It's all irrelevant anyway, since another limo company came through for us so none of us were forced to drive ourselves.

That always happens here in Winnipeg at this time of year.
One cab company (the big one) puts out 200 extra cabs at christmas and they all want to make as money as possible.

There are a lot of folks who just sit and wait and take the cab when it comes, figuring that the cabs must be busy, so most cabbies will try to get away with doing shit like that.
Its even worse when calling a cab in the central core area.

I hear ya, although in your original post it was a 3 hour drive now its 6. I guess I just can't relate to wanting a beer so bad your willing to waste your day off, cancel a trip and concert you've been planning on for a long time and then having to go through legal hassles.

I said:

"It's a 3 hour drive there one way"

so it takes 3 hours to get back home too. 3+3=6 hours

I'm sure we would have found a way there if we couldn't find a limo, but that's not the point. When you put a credit card number down as security on a service you are relying on, people should be held accountable if they decide not to come through at the last minute.

aww did the bigdeal get upset?

I guess he did ..... can you tell??:Graucho

Fitty hacks gettin told off:Graucho

There are parking lots in most countries that you can leave your car at while you are out screwing around.


Try to keep in mind that this asshole is trying to make as much money at X-mas time as he can. Do you blame him for that?

u should have fucked him in the ass. :2 cents:
