Good news alot of cabby will return cab after CNY
-
Due to the nature of my job , i took a lot cab , most cabby I spoke to are considering the return the cab after CNY .. think the current problem will be solved cos less cab on the road means less competion and
good new for comfort is if 15 % of pple return their cab
They lose 1500 * $100 per day = $150,000 per day .congratualtion ! -
takes another boycott of 1984 to settle things...

I always communicate with my chief thru email ....
I already warned her due to the new fare structure , many relief tan bojiak , relief will quit , when relief quit , hirer in trouble !!!
I also warned her those booking-taking drivers will also quit for other company , like Premier Cabs , who also got quite strong booking base .
I also warned her after 18th jan , when the year's first benefit will be given . many cabby will take the $$$ and fu-ck-off .
I also lastly warned her : Do not try to increase the fuel subsidise , and up the diesel , the last weapon they can have to keep us . -
We cabbies drove a cab , and has actually waited for those Big Days .
Days like X'mas Eve , New Year Eve , and CNY .
So not surprising , after CNY , more will quit for greener pasture .
I ever mention here , once after CNY , i'll be off to Pattaya for the sun , the sand , the beach and the nude !!!
After 5 long years experience , once after CNY , the demand for taxis slow down for about until April .... then the "chart arrow" goes up !!! If not from February to March end , arrow point downwards .
Comfort expected that , that's why they move the hike to X'mas season . -
Hi Poolman,
These are valuable information from your experience in which you have gathered over the past years. I am contemplating getting a vocational license but based on what you have just said, will it be a right timing to obtain one now - taking the lessons and the wait for the result.
Thank you for your time. -
wah u actually know the person who is a decision maker on hikes.
so wat u wanna do in thailand? -
Dun understand why this is any good new? More cabbies quit = more ppl jobless.
Less cab dun mean cab fare will be cheap. So now if compare to pre hike, just as hard to flag a cab but yet cost more. Worse if u need to pay call booking just to get the overly price cab!!!
Does Comfort earn or lost pprofit affect us in anyway directly? -

aiya, those taxi drivers also poor thing lah, also not they set the prices.Originally posted by Y_Shun:taxi lou like poolman cannot earn lor
can only blame those at the top, never drive taxi b4, don't know market, yet anyhow set prices. -
taxi is not a job. it is a business. if business is bad, they will lose money if they continue... i would return if i am losing money (or not making meaningful sum) and driving long hours at the same time... might as well be a clerk in air conOriginally posted by ispyyy:I think those cabby will not return cab after CNY...

this is the death of taxis as a mode of public transport, and the death of MRT as an world-acclaimed efficient mode of transport cos u can't even boarding the fcuking first train when u arrive at the platform like 5 yrs ago. -
Last time, the wait in between trains was 3-4 minutes.Originally posted by ^tamago^:ppl wun keep losing money just so that u can get to work on time.

These days, the wait in between trains is 5-7 minutes.
The other day during peak period, I went up to scold them upside down, 3 trains came and I can't even get on one of them.
I think they trying to pack the trains up like sardines so that they can show better profit figures. -
return cabs liao den they eat grass ah?

oh ? so their losing money is to be blamed on me now ?Originally posted by ^tamago^:ppl wun keep losing money just so that u can get to work on time.

gave up on mrt long ago liao... keep emphasing on profit. off peak also must wait more than 8mins and of course must stand....
but then seriously given singapore projected population growth, taxis and trains sure got business over long run...bus won't grow much cos road too congested and pple patience on road is lower -
saturday, off peak, frequency 8min, i already cannot go in ...zzzzOriginally posted by ^tamago^:ppl wun keep losing money just so that u can get to work on time.
