An Uber driver in San Francisco picked someone up and took them to the airport last Thursday.\u00a0 Then after he dropped them off, he went back . . . and tried to break into their HOUSE.<\/p>\n
They had a doorbell cam that triggered an alarm when it detected him moving around.\u00a0 So he didn’t get in.<\/p>\n
But then he went to a neighbor’s home down the street and DID get inside.\u00a0 He trashed the place and stole a bunch of stuff, including family heirlooms that date back to the Holocaust.<\/p>\n
So cops tracked him down and recovered some of the stuff he stole.\u00a0 It’s not clear if they got the heirlooms back or not though.<\/p>\n
Uber fired him, and he’s now facing burglary charges.<\/p>\n

HAMMERED.\u00a0 He was hanging out at the Planet Hollywood casino, and drank so much he blacked out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But he was still up around 7:00 A.M., and wanted to do some gambling.\u00a0 So he put $100 down on a CRAZY parlay bet that involved three different sporting events.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He placed two different bets on a huge underdog to beat the favorite in the NCAA hockey tournament.\u00a0 He bet they’d win, and placed another bet that the combined score would be six goals or less.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He also bet the Minnesota Timberwolves would beat the Golden State Warriors, which was unlikely.\u00a0 And he picked the Minnesota Wild to beat the Vegas Golden Knights in the NHL.\u00a0 And all four bets had to hit, or he’d lose the hundred bucks.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Right after he placed the bet, he went back to the Holiday Inn where he was staying, passed out, and missed all of the games.\u00a0 Then he woke up later . . . didn’t even remember placing the bet . . . and found out he’d won over 26 THOUSAND DOLLARS.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He says the casino told him it’s the biggest four-leg parlay win they’ve ever had.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

saw her.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They were about 50 yards away when they saw her climb over the railing.\u00a0 So they ran back to get their coach and had him call 911.\u00a0 Then he told them to run back to the bridge and try to distract her.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n By then, she was actually DANGLING from the bridge, and only holding on with one hand.\u00a0 So they all started chanting, “Stop, your life is worth it,” and kept talking to her for another ten minutes.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n She eventually managed to pull herself back up, then police showed up.\u00a0 They put her on a 72-hour hold and got her some help.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The coach says she must have heard the kids yelling, and couldn’t bring herself to do it while they were watching.\u00a0 He thinks that’s the only reason she didn’t jump.<\/p>\n

total, you tip on the amount before tax.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Which lots of people already do.\u00a0 But instead of tipping 20% on that subtotal, you use a different trick where you double the sales tax.\u00a0 Which varies depending on where you are, but it’s usually somewhere between 6% and 9%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n That ends up being a 12 to 18% tip on the subtotal.\u00a0 Here are some people on the
