UberX Driver

He sits in front of me and swallows his saliva
He fumbles in the cup holder for his chapstick
He puts his chapstick on his lips
He opens up his phone
He picks up his coconut water, unscrews the top and drinks it
He screws the top on, puts it down
He swallows his saliva again
He opens up his phone
He picks up his coconut water, unscrews the top and drinks it
Screws the top on, puts it down
He swallows his saliva again
He is doing many many things in hopes that he will stumble upon the magic combination
A certain ordering of chapstick, coconut water, saliva and saliva swallowing that will crack the code of his unhappiness and make him feel better
Meanwhile, I sit in meditation behind him, waiting for him to finish
