Now here’s an earth-shattering labor action…

DC Cabbies are striking today to protest proposed changes to the way taxis are regulated in the District.

Oh, there’s an industry that’ll be missed. You mean I won’t be able to flag down a crappy old Crown Vic driven by a guy who doesn’t speak English and doesn’t know anything about DC geography and who as a worse sense of direction than I do? What ever shall I do?

(I guess I’ve just been spoiled after a week of London cabbies.)

    When I was living in the AU Park/Spring Valley area, I used to have to direct cabbies to my house cos none of them knew where my street was. It’s a good thing I was never catching a cab home when I had no sense of direction.
