My cab driver...... True story today....

[Brian37]

True story happened today. Funny as shit, but still.

Ok, so I have a regular cab driver whom on a weekly bases takes me to the store. Anywho she drops me of, gets out to smoke. I go in to shop, 15 minutes later I walk out and she says the car's locked. She locked her keys in the car, I was not upset, I've done it too. 

But fortunately in that location the local police will aid cabbies into getting back into their vehicles. So while they were working on getting in, I said to her,  I've done it before, and she jokes back, IN FRONT OF THE COPS,  "What?"You've broken into cars before?"

I laughed, but still? Cops smiled, but again still....... I laughed smiled and responded, "Thanks alot lady, you trying to get me arrested?" The cops laughed too.

That's a good one. Last year my lady friend lost her house keys and we had to get the council out to gain entry. At first we all thought they'd have to saw out the lock, wrecking the front door and incurring significant charges for a replacement. However, a small 2 foot by 8 inch window in the back, to the kitchen, was open, and they managed somehow to basically take the whole big window below it out of the frame. I then climbed in (her dog was inside so I did the climbing in as the dog knew me well and we were all a bit worried he might go mental at "strange man climbing through window" lol) and opened the front door from the inside! Tada! We joked at the time that the technique they used to gain access would be highly prized knowledge in the underworld.

My jaw dropped. I was just happy the cops were in a good mood. 

I wished I had responded, " I want a ride in your(cab driver) car, not theirs."

I could have come back with, well "What's under your seat?" I didn't though.

Or perhaps: "Don't project your criminal history on to me darling, some of us are law abiding citizens!"

I didn't do it but really could have one up'ed her and said, "Whatever is under her seat is not mine."  But that would have gone too far.

I didn't think of it in at the time , but I should have followed it up with, " I wanted a ride in your cab, not a police car. It's much cheaper."
