ah, the modern gig economy, where I have to seriously contemplate the consequences on a rideshare driver’s life when deciding whether I should take a single star off for going 65 in a 30 and being in a cell phone conversation the entire way

@Kistaro look at it this way: you may be endangering or taking away their job, but they were endangering not only their own life, *and* yours, but also those of every other driver and pedestrian they passed. some people *need to not be driving so much*.

one of my former housemates had a job driving a van for a company until he got into an accident and they fired him. he was upset, but knowing his driving habits, I was just relieved nobody was seriously injured--or killed. :|
