Your taking more because the hackneys on your firm arent running for those 2 poundish jobs,glad its working for you but at what price ? Your doing far more miles for not a lot extra,not much extra at xmas either ? Speaking to people on your company,there far from impressed.But hey look on the bright side your directors are happy with all you ph voting(and paying big salarys) for them :roll:



so why are those hackneys who arnt accepting job offers still paying subs eh????????????????


not much extra eh well i can assure you theres a massive difference between this year and last and i mean massive.

So you say,and im glad for you.Hackneys work different from ph,youd notice by the amount sat on ranks after the early morning/school works finished.They wont pull of for a 2 pound job,by the time they have run for it thats what youd end up with.Whats better to do one job for a fiver or two for 2.50 ? Maybe for you your doing better,on the other hand i dont see a queue forming to join your company.Have a good xmas,allthe best.



theres a major flaw with your argument


when you get a job offer you know not either pick up or destination until you HAVE ACCEPTED THE JOB SO ILL ASK AGAIN WHY ARE THESE HACKNEYS PAYING SUBS.

all the best back at yer

We had a day off this xmas. At least we didn't lose money like we did last year. 6 jobs booked, 4 cancelled at the last minute. so no money wasted going out for no-shows.

Maybe he had a good day ? Maybe he talks sh1te ? Who knows, who cares what anyone else takes ? I bother ats in my pocket thats it.If i listened and believed other taxi drivers id give up.Dont take this the wrong way,but if your happy what you take fine.But its a race to the bottom mate,how low can you go ? Me i dont give any discounts and guess what ,probally took the same ish money as i did last year :wink:

If he has done the same hours then good for him.

I still think if it is so successful the opposition will reduce their rates to below yours, and then what do you do? :?

It sounds like a typical taxi rank story.......guess how much,how far ect ect i did last night.The busiest day/night of the year is allways when im off aswell.If you said twice maybe id have bought it,but four times ? Its whats commonly known as bullsh1t :roll:
