Trip Sheet

I was 19 years old, still wet behind the ears, when I decided to take a summer job driving a cab — almost unheard of for a woman back in 1975. I kept the job through my senior year and into the next summer, accruing enough intriguing interactions and experiences to fill a grease-stained notebook.
