The worse time to get a call from a recuiter.

 What would that time be. Well, this is what happened to me last week. 

 I'm driving Lyft pulling up to a customer's house. As I'm going up the driveway, the phone rings. I'm assuming it was the rider. No, it was a recruiter that said he saw my resume and was asking if I were interested in this position. Of course, I'm trying to get him off the phone as quickly as I can without being odd. I told him you caught me at a bad time. He insisted it wouldn't take long, and I just blurted out I'm driving Lyft and I just pulled up to a customer's house. I answered the phone because I thought it was them. Can we continue at another time? With that question I painted myself in a corner. I knew I couldn't talk to him later today because I planned to drive the afternoon. Then I thought tomorrow, but I'm out in the morning. All that time to give a reply I knew this guy wouldn't reach back out so I just said tomorrow around noon. He said ok and I never heard from him again. 

 Not bad for me because I really have made up my mind that I'm going to do Lyft and my MSP. I just need to schedule my time correctly.
