This morning, Thursday, my day off, I went to Starbucks for coffee, their cranberry and orange scone and to work on this article. Just as I booted my laptop, I struck a conversation with a lady at the next table. She was from northern Nevada and was here on business. While talking of our life’s situation, she commented on the fact I was very upbeat and looked happy and content… Continue reading
Some comments have asked about my life in Las Vegas. I have mentioned in a past article that I moved out of the house of the people who invited me to come back and am in my own apartment. Furnishing it was a two stop shopping trip. I bought my bedroom furniture at a hotel liquidator furniture warehouse and my living room set from a furniture store.
I was… Continue reading
It is getting difficult to keep up with new articles about my life but I will do my best and appreciate all that keeps coming back and looking for new articles.
I am still working and doing ok. I had my 90-day review and had good comments. I amnow off probationary status. This is because I am keeping close or above the “Average.” A driver who is below 15%… Continue reading
Again I need to apologize to all my visitors for being lax in updating but I have been busy. First I have been working the long 12 hour shifts. Originally I worked Saturday and Sundays on the North-North shift and then Monday through Wednesday on “Extra Board.” Extra Board is where you are not assigned to a shift and you wait to see if someone who called in sick, quit… Continue reading
As I had mentioned, I had mailed in the Application for Elena’s Spousal Visa. Well last week I received notice it was received and now to enter the process of review. Once I received this notice, I contacted all the Senators and Congressmen in Nevada for assistance and also contacted the Senator in Florida that assisted me in the past. So far, I have not received any reply from any… Continue reading
There were some comments trying to understand how and what a taxi driver pays and earns driving in Las Vegas. In addition, comments about tipping and what amount should be given in a tip. I will try to explain as the best I can.
Of all the different companies in the Valley, some are individually owned and some companies have a few taxi company names under one ownership… Continue reading
First, I need to apologize for the delays of my writings here, but as you will see, the hours are not beneficial to having much of a life until I get a better shift. I will try to do my best to better chronicle my life in a timelier manner.
Well, after all the paper work, drug screening, physical, studying, testing, training, I am finally a Taxi Driver. My… Continue reading
In the past, I wrote about a friend of mine, Tom Martin. Tom also comments here every so often. He is also known as Father Tom since he is a retired priest.
For all the time I have known Tom, he has always wanted to help people and families in a charitable way. He gives of… Continue reading
Here is another article from Rob, also known as m60man. He is very good at expressing his views and I thank him for assisting me in keeping this site with writings about Davao. Thank you Jon.
I just read Tom Martin’s post and his last comment rang true to me as well. Bruce met my wife and me for lunch before he left for Vegas. We chatted about many… Continue reading
Well it has been three weeks I have been back in the USA and here are things I have had to readjust to, and thought I would discuss some of them. One this is the language. You might think I am joking but it is kind of strange hearing English in most places. I am an observant person and at times, my observations are from my ears instead of my… Continue reading
I am here in Las Vegas two and a half weeks now. I am sorry for not updating sooner but life has been hectic for me. Practically every day was something and if not, I was trying to relax from all the running around.
One problem was with the scooter. The storage box on the rear fell off twice and went bouncing down the road. The first time the… Continue reading
As you know from reading this site, I just moved back to America a little over a week ago. Now I am preparing to file for my wives Petition for Alien Relative, or better known as Spousal Visa.
To file you need to send an I-130 form “Petition for Alien Relative” and an I-325a “Biographical Data” form for both your wife and yourself.
Once the petition is approved… Continue reading
Today is my first week living in Las Vegas and back in the USA. Now is time to update my readers on my activities. On the last article, I mentioned about going to the M Resort and casino for the buffet dinner. Well as planned we went. It is not a huge seating area as I have seen in places like Circus Circus, but it is nicer and less crowded… Continue reading
At my last post I was still in Inchon, Korea. That was a long experience. There were hotels and rest facilities but keeping on a budget I just walked around or sat at a gate area. Finally the staff manned the gate. I went up and asked if it was possible to get reseated with something with more leg room. I was afraid with the lack of sleep and the… Continue reading
It is Wednesday morning and I am feeling like a zombie in the airport in Incheon, Korea. My travels started on Tuesday afternoon. Because of the extra and excess baggage decided to get to the airport early for my 6:30pm flight. A friend of mine with a full size pickup truck assisted us by picking Elena and I with my cargo at my house and bringing us to the airport… Continue reading
