Any comments fellow TD…
Everyday I averaged 10 calls .
taking bookings have its advantage.
I clocked less mileage and the additional income from call bookings
helped me to end shift earlier.
So cannot complaint cdg … After all not bad.
a few times also call me to offer me $5 to take call.
Taking calls have its disadvantages.
You cannot reject a few destinations with single trip.
as a cdg TD, if you want to regularly take calls. ... temper
control has to be your traits.
I passed with flying colours. ...
Today the topic trip took 1 hour 15 mins…
Trip start 3.30pm from dempsy hill.

india. .. speak with slang. ..

somebody and then drove the ccb Indian family to sentosa cove sandy
island. Condo .. very rich family. ..

this is serious wrong with the taxi fares structure. Because of
such pax that is taking up the taxi unncessary which is one of the
reason there is not enough taxi during peak hour.
if the authority and taxi companies want to address the taxi
availability for pax, this is something that need to look into, and
surcharge need to charge for addtional stop and waiting. This will
then reduce ppl misuse the taxi that cater for general public for
point to point transportation.
