Driving a cab is not really a nurturing type of relationship. You take people and they tip you, they may not tip you, you don't know their names, they don't care about you, you don't care about them.

Summary

This quote highlights the impersonal nature of being a cab driver and the lack of emotional connection between the driver and the passengers. The relationship is purely transactional, where the driver provides a service and the passengers simply pay for it. There is no genuine care or concern for each other, as they remain strangers whose paths briefly intersect. This emphasizes the detached and non-nurturing aspect of the cab driver's profession.
