Hennessy Taxi Service

Taxi 163 this morning was driving like a complete c#nt. Driving aggressively and cutting people off in traffic. Shoving his way into lanes requiring other people to stop or get it by him. And he was doing this with a paying customer in the backseat. After honking at him for coming with in millimeters of my car, he decided to roll down his window and give me the finger again, with the passenger in the back. Might save you three bucks to go with this company on a $ 65 trip to and from an airport. I don’t think it’s worth it.

I landed at Newark Liberty Airport on 9÷2÷14 after a fantastic vacation in the Midwest and took a cab home, I live about 20 minutes from the airport. This company was the one working at Terminal A so it wasn’t like I had a choice of companies and you are assigned a cab in the order that they are waiting in line. Once the driver was given my information by the attendant for ground transportation the attitude fest started, although the driver was from another country, it was obvious from his body language and expression that he wasn’t happy he was taking me so close, secondly, NO GPS IN THESE FLIPPING CABS, HELLO?! IT’S 2014, IF YOU ARE GOING TO SERVICE AN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, SUPPLY YOUR CABS WITH A GPS… so I had to tell him how to get to my house and the ‘SHORTEST ROUTE’ per Mr. Attitude’s request, having been born and raised in Newark I knew that construction has changed many of the traffic patterns and the most obvious route wouldn’t be the easiest nor the shortest, so I told him the best way to get there… Every time we hit a red light, I swore we were going to rear-​end the car in front of us because he kept stopping short and switching lanes like he owned the road, all because he wanted to get to the airport fast enough to pick up his next fare. We hit traffic and this ticked him off more, HELLO… IT WAS RUSH HOUR IN A MAJOR CITY! So, he kept muttering under his breath in ‘some language’ and sucking his teeth, this went on the entire ride, finally, I got home unscathed and he didn’t even bother getting out of the car to get my luggage out of the trunk, he just popped the trunk and I did it on my own, I barely had closed the trunk and he peeled out of there like a bat out of hell. Sadly, I had already filled out the fare voucher at the airport and included a tip ahead of time, frankly, he should have paid me for doing everything except driving the cab!
