It would help if the paparazzi shut the hell up during it.

What kind of retarded cab driver lets his cab stay empty for 90 minutes?

Will she just die already?

Did she ever get to use her street shout-out?

The meter had to be running. It isn't a charity -ahem- driven industry.

 
wrek 2008-04-11 08:12:25 AM  
oh it was the cabbie who had to wait?

/still confused..

The most stupid part of the whole thing is that people are interested in hearing a conversation between her and a cabbie.

She tried to make him wait without fare, but he said, "No, no, no".

The ugly tattoos and needle marks beg to differ.

Nice....When i call a cab...I watch for him. That way he doesn't have to wait for me (time is money for cabbies) and he knows he's got the right place. No doubt the guy radioed in and said he was there for the pickup. owever, she is Amy Whinehouse....so she can reasonably expect the cab driver to ring HER.

I see how this works now. Guy just trying to make a living getting the "I'm a biatch and your gonna take it" from a star. Feel bad for the guy. My dad was a cabbie. I'm not terribly objective in my perspective.

At least in the Seattle area, cabs charge a waiting fee. I've never actually taken a cab, but I believe it's 0.50/minute on their waiting charge.

Although not as much actually driving around, he might have still been expecting some pay. Any time my friends get a taxi, we usually get a call when they're outside. Then again, my friend who uses them the most is blind and may just be getting some special treatment from the cab company as he advises them of this.

Maybe we could do a large online petition for her to commit suicide, more quickly. Then send it her way.

I have never called a cab that DIDN'T call me when they are out front.

If i didn't get a call i would never know that it was out there.

i think that when your client is known to be amy winehouse, someone who is hounded by paparazzi, the driver's company can call when the car arrives.
my cab's call up for me, and i'm a nobody.

 
Befuddled 2008-04-11 04:59:06 PM  
I can't understand why Amy Winehouse is considered so interesting that she gets followed everywhere. Is is just because she's a trainwreck waiting to happen and the paparazzi don't want to miss it when it happens?

 
eltejon 2008-04-11 05:24:35 PM  
I did feel for the guy.. and then he is just trying to get on with the work AND be laughed at by the leeches.

This. There is no way they are going to give some cabbie Amy F**KING winelouses phone number. The guy radioed back to HQ "#77 is waiting at the residence" and hq should have called her. But, regardless of that fact, i'm on the phone 30 minutes after the initial phone call if the cab is not there. if nothing else to make sure they can find the place. If you are Amy crackhouse, and the cab hasnt arrived after whatever amount of time, are you not going to call up the cab company and say "WTF?"

Evidently not, The Amy doesn't do that. The Amy wants you to call HER!

But I think that we can all agree that "Will she just die already?"

SFmission...I don't have a local area code on my phone and they wont call often times...it's long distance, you know. But yea if I had a local area code they do call. Still, up her ass w/ a 2x4. She's so repulsive that i would rather accidentally drink my chew spit then be in her vicinity.

"then why are you taking about her Niteshift?"
I need a mental break. 3L law exams in 2 weeks and i'm 12 hours into a 16 hour day of studying.

 
Craptastic 2008-04-11 07:23:11 PM  
I hope she lives to a ripe old age. Otherwise, she'll probably get a ghoulish James Dean-type following.

 
jazzerspeechie 2008-04-11 08:51:48 PM  
What I don't get about Amy Winehouse is how it seems like she's just rolled out of bed and back into the bar...but no matter how haggard her dress or behavior, her eyeliner and beehive are always done.
I know when I'm hung over the last thing I want is my teasing comb...

He probably considered her celebrity status meant that she had money to pay him with. At some point, he realized that she was worthless trash, and wasn't going to pay him.
