The First Day
A passenger in a
taxi leaned over and waiting to ask him a question, tapped the driver on the
shoulder. The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus, drove
up over the cab, and stopped just inches from a large plate glass window.
For a few
moments everything was silent in the cab, and then the still shaking driver
said, "I'm sorry, but you scared the daylights out of me!"
The frightened
passenger apologized and said he didn't realize a mere tap on the shoulder could
frighten him so much.
The driver
replied, "No, no, I'm sorry. It's entirely my fault. Today is my first day
driving a cab. I've been driving a hearse for the last 25 years."
