Polling Day ==>> Throw Rental Day !!!!
Day Shift Eat Grass !
Night Shift Lagi Eat Grass !
So 。。。。。。。Throw Rental La !!!!
last round ok what a lot of short distance wheel chair pax
The industry is like that every month got at least a few courses conducted for taxi driving aspirers (forced by situation or attempting to get a license as backup) . Though not would eventually get their taxi license, there are always newbies entering the industry. So got throw keys type also got newbies coming in. So competition would be the same.
50000 of those who threw keys already still refused to give up taxi license, pay to go for medical checkups and renew license during renewal periods (unlike property agent industry) knowing they would need it one of these days as they may be retrenched anytime given the huge influx of foreigners.
It's really a lot of people attempting to enter the industry every month with Comfort conducting at leat 3 courses per month, more likely 3 per month by Singapore Taxi Academy and don't know how many courses by SMRT.
If SMRT conducts also 3 courses per month, then it is 270 newbies per month and potentially up to 3240 Singaporeans per year. However the real number is lower as not all people could pass the taxi exam and most take more than 1 attempt to get the license. 1 uncle even took 80 attempts to get his license.
When I took my course, the instructor told us about 4/30 (13.33%) would pass in 1 attempt and said last time a lot easier to pass. But not long ago, I read 70% passed in 1 attempt.

To taxi drivers, it is another must pay rental day....so must work to ensure not making a loss that day...... where got so Ho Mia like employees of companies who get paid holidays ? Taxi drivers go negative if don't work. For some, it is lose $100+ per day if don't drive at all.....some even closed to $200 like our "Man in White" OMO brothers who drive new Mercedes.

Wah GT top drivers for Aug got char boh win also ah
Steady la
672 jobs in a mth
I still wondering how ppl manage to hit tis kind of numbers...
Ofcoz must be 2 man operation la
20 over jobs per day sure can hit in a mth.....
This type of drvr ,I think whole day only take GT jobs n always put on busy!
Uncle whole day take also not all job u bid win ma plus non peak hr got call meh?
Wah....22.4 customers per day assuming no rest day.....pretty high by Grab-car standard.
My average for a 12-hour stretch day including fuel-top up and car wash using regular taxi is 20-25 customers.
Philip 50" TV is $734 ( http://www.lazada.sg/shop-tvs/ ). So their best drivers get $24.46 extra per day for chong ka liao. I assume they would work more than 12 hours per day.
However regular taxi still better because don't have to lose 20% profit to them.

But this more often not likely because not all hours got call-bookings coming in. Sometimes can go for hours without calls.
Also often, taking calls would make you make less money because some customers would make you wait 10-15 minutes. So it could be 8 minutes to get there and wait another 10 minutes or 18 minutes earning $2 minus fuel money minus rental money. Few days ago, I had 2 taxi trips and found out from two a lot more experienced taxi uncles. They also said they often get this kinds of customers.

very true, the high cost, ensure we need to start engine everyday, least help company make the rental before we can close shop, else it eats into our income
Taxi drivers do not work for company but ourselves .... we only rent taxis from company or split the rental cost with the taxi hirer (who is not an employee hirer or a business partner because each one make own profit without sharing ) whom the taxi company directly charge the rental to.
Whether you work or not, the rental would still be charged to you since you are self-employed who agreed to rent the taxi from the taxi company or agreed to share the rental with at least one hirer for a specific number of days per week .... so you would be making a loss if you do not work while the taxi rental company still continues to make. No taxi driver would think about helping company make the rental money but always thinking I lose this much rental money a day if I do not work.
Self-employed people do not think like employees but think like businessmen.
Personally, I do not ensure I start the engine everyday because I also think from the health perspective.
Every time something happening, we throw rental?!must be stupid!
