Is anyone following us?
No, said the driver, looking in his rearview mirror at traffic and me.
Lets go across the park, I said. I just robbed the bank there. I got $25,000.
$25,000? he asked.
Yeah, you think it was wrong to take it?
No, man, I work 8 hours and I dont make almost $70. If I can do that, I do it too.
As we approached 86th and Lexington, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.
Hey, theres another bank, I said, could you wait here a minute while I go inside?
No, I cant wait. Pay me now. His reluctance may have had something to do with money -taxi drivers think the rate for waiting time is too low -but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber cant expect unconditional support.
