For me, I look it at different angle........
Until last year July, CDG calls are still as strong as nobody
business(should not have any major changes till now)..........
I kian kian took calls, once a while of course tio no show, but
all this fine tuning and culture of pax should be the problem of
taxi company, not for me to judge or determine..........
I move on and normally without fail, another call will come in,
than because after taking a call, your vehicle had already enter a
"war zone' where pax crying for taxi..........
Than open up your wallet and see, enough to buy a loaf of bread
or not............
Never ever 跟钱过不去...........
Due to our incompetence taxi rules and regulation resulting in
current situation from the pax, whose's fault?........
Not my fault.........I only know, a day down the road, if I
secure 10 booking with average of 2.30/3.30 jobs, minus away the
call levy, nett should be around +/~$25(just call charges) which is
equivalent to a trip from North to South of Singapore or 3 short
trips...........
So a TD purely sweep and me combination of sweeping and taking
calls, definitely I will do at least 1 less trip per day or 365
trips per years..........but still getting roughly the same gross
taking...........
This is purely my thinking, need not agree with me, but I have
been doing this for the past donkey years.........
1 lesser trip on the road, you will be less with 1 road
hassle...........
we all welcome call, but sometimes, we have to drive through
terrible congestion to reach the on call passenger. Which is why, I
avoid taking call during peak hours, unless I know I can reach the
poassenger fast enough. Else, I will rather sweep the uncongested
side lanes for passengers.
