A PhD Taxi Driver

Was doing some random surfing just now and chanced upon this blog of a taxi driver. Apparently he's some researcher with PhD but got laid off and ended up being a taxi driver. He blogged down interesting happenings from his daily rides. Yup, worth reading if you can spare some time.

"Probably the only taxi driver in this world with a PhD from Stanford and a proven track record of scientific accomplishments, I have been forced out of my research job at the height of my scientific career, and unable to find another one, for reasons I can only describe as something "uniquely Singapore". As a result, I am driving taxi to make a living and writing these real life stories just to make the dull job a little more interesting. I hope that these stories are interesting to you too."
