I'm 100% behind the Uber/Lyft drivers who are on strike today. Management for both services don't appreciate their most important asset - the drivers. They haven't received what they were promised. I do object to the drivers who accept rides, wait and then cancelling the ride. Not cool.

OK. So I'm not into begging but I need to ask. My SAINT of a mother died a little over a year ago and thanks to a major screwup from her life insurance carrier, I didn't have enough to give her the burial services. More details are here: www.gofundme.com/f/anh-graham...

I've never been comfortable asking for help this but It's been a very tough Christmas season for me. I try to be the nicest I can be and give what little I have to the less unfortunate. If you can help, please do so.
