Was making smalltalk with a city rickshaw driver the other day and the conversations got onto the subject of shall we say candy. The rickshaw driver told me that alot of rickshaw drivers are selling candy on their rickshaw routes and that many are using while operating….I said… surely this can’t be true….apparently someone at CH knows all about it and is afraid to do anything….drivers taking candy while driving???? One might consider buying a bike….

Wait… rickshaws? Are you talking about those things those guys pull around during the tourist season or are you talking about taxis?
i believe a rickshaw would be the thingys pulled around by the guys…and if it gets me around faster…get him all hopped up on anything he likes.
Hmmm – a rickshaw driver fueled by nose candy – roadrunning up Prince St. must be a cinch.
yah well trying getting the rickshaw union to accept random sporadic candy testing on rickshaw drivers *eyeroll*
Never mind the safety of the public, random candy testing violates our members’ rights!
nice! thanks for the info. So are you bitching about this, or are you not, either way your post is pretty gay.
Rickshaws operate in the winter? Thought they were just a summer thing.
Great. Now rickshaw drivers are going to think they’re more hot shit than the dudes who drive Hummers, Mercedes and BMWs!
“like, one time I was talking to this guy and he said, let’s say ‘use a leaf-blower’… and I was totally like, ‘yeah, down with communism’!”
OP, with all the variables in your bitch, a mathematics undergrad degree won’t help us solve for y.
No company names but you can clarify a little more than that. You can even use bad words, fuck face. see? 🙂
is the guy maybe talking about buses….Metro Transit???
