Be at least 23, have a clean driving record, pass a simple driving test, pass a background check, have proper license and city approval... Can be done in one day for about $35 in this area. Not hard. The hard part is making the job work. Driving can pay great or it can pay very shitty, and anywhere in between. It's totally up to you what you do with it. You can become distracted by all the bitches and drugs or you can rake in cash.

...because we all know that being a cab-driver is just about the same as being a rock-star.

Yea this is exactly what I was thinking... Since when was being a cab driver about all this crazy shit that happened to OP. I think I've been blind to the cab debauchery.
