Day 99: Missed Opportunities & Traffic Jams
Join me on a typical Monday afternoon as an Uber driver in Miami, where my best-laid plans to hit the cruise ports take a back seat. Despite a tip-off about a busy day at the airport with cruise passengers, I find myself starting the day at a standstill - quite literally - in South Miami traffic.
With a goal of integrating cruise port runs into my routine, I grapple with balancing late-night rides and optimal work hours. My expeditions to the airport are a mix of anticipation and strategy as I navigate the ebb and flow of incoming flights and potential surges.
Today’s vlog is an honest look into the life of an Uber driver, from discussing the nuances of high-end bottled water preferences with my parents to the ethics of ordering UberX with an XL's luggage load. I also explore the implications of an increasingly costly fast-food nation, with meal prices reaching a point where a generous handout to a person in need doesn't even cover a basic meal at McDonald's.
The day takes me through the lush streets of Miami Beach, where premier rides can surprise, and conversations with customers reveal the multi-faceted layers of the city. The night ends with a reflection on the rides of the day, a tally of earnings that suggests a slower Monday, and thoughts about the significance of my 100th day of vlogging.
Stay tuned for more tales from behind the wheel, lessons learned, and the pursuit of the next surge.
