10/29/16

First request was at 8:40 pm and the last request was completed at 12;28 am.  5 rides for Fare and 1 ride for Get Me.  Peak Pricing was in effect for the entire period tonight.

Most riders were on their way to Halloween parties and were wearing their costumes.

I learned for a very cute female rider that the Ride Austin app is similar to the Uber app.  I am going to have to check that out.

So apparently cats can have acne.  That was what one girl's cat was diagnosed as having by a veterinarian.  I also learned from this group of girls, that guys really dont need to share thier names with girls due to girls already having a system of identification for guys.  You can be "the food truck guy", "the drunk blonde guy that was taking selfies with everyone", or "the guy with a tail" (yes, a tail), etc.

There is a neighborhood near Braker and Dessau streets where all of the streets are the names of the months in the year.  Do not expect to be able to tell someone what the date is after driving through that neighborhood.

After dropping of a group at the Walter Seaholm area, I turned off the app and headed home.  The last riders had exhausted me mentally listening to their pointless conversations.  As I approached home, I stopped at the nearby Whataburger for a taquito.  When I stopped, a lady approaced me and asked if her group could get a ride.  I asked her if she had the Fare app to which she said no but that she had the Fasten app.  I told her that I also had the GetMe app and she happened to have it as well.  Once I obtained my taquitos, we linked up on GetMe and I was able to complete the ride on GetMe.

I noticed that not a single one of the Fare rides had a tip.  We will see if maybe they do it latter.  The Get Me ride tipped.
