AWESOME TOTALLY AWESOME

I had just arrived in Paris after spending the past five weeks in Angola managing some offshore drilling rigs.  Shitty job.  After laying down the rules, I got some pushback from the locals.  Not a surprise.  Typical work politics down there.

I ordered the Uber when I arrived. I tried to contact the driver only to find that the option to call him was not available; I could only send him a text.
