Patricia's Story
What's the weirdest job you ever had? I drove a taxi for a few days just after I graduated from college. On my last day on the job, it was very overcast & I got a call to pick up a lady & her two babies. After I picked them up, it began to pour & the streets of Sunland started to flood. It turned out that the cab's windshield wipers weren't working, & just driving down the street, the water was so deep that the cab stalled. I radioed in to report the problem (this was before everyone had cell phones) & was told there would be a bit of a wait since there were many problems due to the rain that day.

However, they told the lady to bring her kids & get into the other vehicle, got my cab running again, & told me to go back to the taxi yard. I only made it a few hundred feet more, unable to see without windshield wipers, before the cab stalled out again. This time, I couldn't even get a response on the radio. As other drivers honked unceasingly around & behind me, I finally jumped out of the cab, left it in the middle of a major street, & hitchhiked a ride back to the yard to get my own car & drove home. Thus ended my taxi driving career.
