taxi driver

[raininroses]

So, this morning as I took the train to work (as amor_ereptor is still sick), I had to take a taxi from my station. The guy actually used a UPS (edit-GPS) system to take the way to my work as he didn't know the way. I could have directed him myself, but hey, if he understands a machine better than my directions and we actually get there, that's fine.

How would an Uninterruptable Power Supply help get you anywhere?

Perhaps you meant a GPS...? :D

Um

Sorry he's still so sick! :-( that sux. Did the train times change since you've been on last?

Not only the train times...

but the work shuttle times and location. The train added baby bullets but the Gilroy shuttle isn't classified as that...and the shuttle follows the baby bullet time schedule. So, I could go to Mountain view (which isn't near work at all) station and get there at 7:12 (which the shuttle left 3 minutes before) and wait until 8 am before another shuttle comes, OR take a taxi from a train station close to the Lawrence one...OR walk from Lawrence station to work. As I don't want to wait until 8, I either walk 35 minutes and have exercise and don't spend money, or take a taxi that gets me there in 15-20 minutes for 16 dollars..today I chose a taxi.
