Paying for cabs to work when I have been up super late working or have, oops, slept late - nasty, nasty habit. To be totally honest with myself, I probably spend $250 a month on cabs. Ouch! That is almost a student loan payment.~ Lou Erickson
It's a pretty pathetic way to fritter away $$, I know. And sometimes the cab rides suck. Like the time the cabbie didn't talk to me at all the entire ride, pulled up to my building, and as I opened the door asks me dramatically, "What do you think caused the current economic crisis?"
Seriously?! You are going to ignore me the entire drive and then ask me the most broad psuedo-intellectual question I have ever heard? Seriously?
OK, cab rides are definitely on the chopping block for my new budget.
But because the point is to save and not to deprive oneself of life's luxurious lets throw in a few exceptions shall we?
I can take a cab if:
1) I have had less than 4.5 hours sleep
2) the temperature is above 98 or below 25
3) it is pouring rain or snowing hard (no sprinkles or flurries count here)
4) I have a suitcase
AND - for every time I take a cab to work outside of thies exceptions, I have to walk to work once within the next week.
