Thanks for setting up a forum which allow cabbies to communicate on their experiences n daily happening.
I'm once a XXX driver back in 20XX for about X months. X months on XXX merc limo & X months on XXX as relief.
Currently, i'm considering to quit my full time job due to the stress level in the corporate ladder & most of all i kind of adapt to life as a cabbie during my X months on the road:)
I intend to start off as a relief driver in-order to get use of the new rules, buildings,highways etc. To be honest i'm not a night driver per se as i'm so use to driving from 6am - 10 pm.
I hope you are able to shed some lights on the below question
1 If i were to opt for drive 5 days n rest 2 days, do you think tue-sat will be the right option?
Thansk for the pointers in advance
2 Where should i be focusing from 12 mn to 5 am from tue to thur?
3 Base on my working pattern, do you think its possible to have a average income of $2K
In order to protect the identity of this member , sorry to put so many XXXX .

To be honest , i still dun know what shift u intend to do ?
If u are on Night shift :
1.F**k la Sunday and Monday is the 2 best days to off for nite relief . U dun go off on the week's next best day ( saturday ) . Tuesday u dun see siao siao , can take home $150 one . F**k Sunday looked busy , but f**king no big deal . Tuesday is a day better than Monday .
2. Night drivers like me , need not pay too much attention from 12mn to 5am , priorities on peak hours , cos 8pm to 11.59pm easy easy to drive . Midnight on weekday most can get $50-$70 if good . Some guys i know 12am to 1am , Shenton way area . 1am Party area . 2am clarke Quay area . Depends on your likings , i like might not be what u like .
Like TioCallLiao my good friend , if u get him to go drunkard areas , must well kill him for good , he won't go one la . However good money i can help him get , he also dun go clubbing areas .
3.Work 5 days can fetch more than $2000 la , need not worry , just follow senior's advices and learn , and adopt yourself a routine and formula .
It take time la , to find yourself a routine , a pattern of driving . A simple formula , daily formula .
For a start , the path might be a bit uneven , bumpy , once u crossed that border , it's smooth driving all the way .
More advice coming ...... Keep tuning in ( like Class 95 fm )
