when the cab arrives it is almost always a bloke behind the wheel.
What do you do when that happens? If you get the taxi, then they’re going to keep doing it.
I book taxis to get to important appointments. If I don't get in the cab I miss the appointment. So I get in the cab and then use a different firm the next time.
I've now used all the available firms in this area and they have all proved to be unreliable and not the slightest bit bothered. Obviously, like the misogynists on Glasgow Council, they don't believe there is any genuine reason why a woman would require a woman driver.
Perhaps they too dismiss me as a man hating sexist, and send out male drivers on purpose in an attempt to re-educate me? Perhaps they have a good guffaw at the thought of my saggy titted old self being so deluded as to think any of them would be tempted to rape me? Or perhaps they don't have many women drivers because it's not a safe job for women, and the ones they do have tend to only do the school runs?
All I do know is that if there was a firm that only hired women drivers they would get my custom. As would any female plumber, electrician, carpenter, gardener, decorator and odd job woman. I wish there was a national register of female centred businesses, but of course any woman on such a register would risk being targeted by angry perverts, who think the same way as Glasgow Council and are mortally offended by women trying to prioritise other women.
