Very little , good time $3200 , bad time $2400 , now fare hike think $2200 maximum .Originally posted by FBI:may i know your monthly income?
The last few months before hike , ironically i earned something like near to $3k , this could be the reason why the god-damn Garmen increase the fare .
Singapore PAP Garmen always does that , cannot see a profession get rich .
Only they all can get rich .
I alway tell my friends , if the garmen closed one door , we can always find another door , they can't close all the doors , we'll find the source to another door .
There's many doors available in taxi business . We have to source for them that's all .
Same apply to all professions . -
During the SARS period .... my group out-source all those cabbies , our group made it every night when others flopped .
When others quit , taxi got less , more night reliefs quits , taxis got even less , that's when we made $$$ .
We cabbies have to analyse the strength and weaknesses of the market , and Singaporean's reaction to this hike , and analysis the duration of the effect ... in daily basis , the up and down of the taxi demand ...... from there , we adjust to the environment .
Once again , we can't beg the environment to fit us , we have to adept to the changing environment . And fast .
Taxi driving - it's not just about driving , it's a business . -
Boycott is the "naughty" term , not that la .Originally posted by 798:now is bad time for taxi drivers cos pple r trying to boycott cab rides.

Taxi is somehow expensive to take at the moment .
Just like a pair of Armani jeans , $200+ , very nice , but u might think thrice before u really want to buy it , unless u really need it , if not , a pair of Made-In-China XYZ $12.00 jeans will do .
Also unless u are so branded-mind , everything must be Armani , so no choice u must buy lor ...
In fact , my 8pm onwards business as usual , only problem is the 5pm to 8pm segment , must really work for it .
For a quiet period like today , for 11 hours job , i manage to get $189 nett salary .... is it enough for me ? certainly yes .
Yesterday ? I earn $105 for 7 hours job . But yesterday lucky a bit .
Business is bad compare to last month , not that really so jia-lat la .
The ratio is like : 2 trips = 3 trips last month .
Eg .... Park Mall go Jurong West $21 , Jurong West go Double O , $16 , total 37 , last month , i need another Double O go back Jurong west then i can get $37 .
Saw the diff now ?
Less busy la ..... less trips more money .
