Can You Hack It? I started driving a taxi seventeen years ago. There have been many different situations over the years. I have also met many different people from all over the world and have seen greed and corruption first hand. I have driven a taxi in two major tourist destinations. people always ask me how the business works. When I tell customers my story they always say someone should write a book about the taxi business. Not what is in the taxi but what makes the wheels turn and the people who make it happen. as days and years go by I still wonder why I am still in the taxi business and deal with all the drama. I then realize I like drama and adventure. I then decided to tell how I got in the business and why I wanted to move on to another career.
