Would you get into a self-driving car? If you say no, you aren’t alone. As for me, I would. I actually do it every day. You see, I drive an autonomous vehicle every day as part of my full-time job.

It’s a pretty cool job. Sometimes a bit scary, but for the most part, it is fun. I get to be part of the generation that helped get that started.

When I applied for the job, I had to meet several requirements. I had to have both a clean driving record and a clean (non-criminal) record. I also had to demonstrate, via a test, that I could type 50 words per minute with a 100% accuracy rate. That’s not easy.

What if I told you that it would not be possible today if it wasn’t for a friend who stood up for me back when I was 15 years old? A friend who “took a bullet” for me to avoid severe punishment because of something dumb I had done. Something that would have prevented me from learning how to drive, going to college, and ultimately being able to apply for the job I have today.

Today, in this episode, I tell you about this friend of mine named Nacho and how he did not snitch (tattletale) on me and how that ultimately changed the course of my young life.
