Can the taxi uncle ask u $5.40 can anot???

But I feel sometimes its okay la. If you do that every single time, you'll definitely be blacklisted by the taxi drivers lo. hahaha. I think in cases when you are rushing for something and have no time to dig for coins, then can round off to nearest dollar la. Not so guo fen

For me easy lah, if reached and meter show $13.45, pax give $15, I see pax like very urgent want to drop, I dig and dig into my coin pouch, dig and dig, see and see, count and count ...then pax see already "Uncle you can keep the change, thank you:" bang.

This is standard everywhere in the service industry, go to restaurant and pay the bill they will return all the change in coins, make you paiseh to take, especially with your gf/wife.

bowah SG

No lah, i no paiseh one, even left 10 cents, I also take, cos restaurant different mah, they already got the 10% service charges, + 7% Gst, still give them??? knn, i got rental to pay ok.

Then can I ask pax for 10% SVC and 7% Gst on top of the fare?? if so, I do not mind reject all other tips.

I also not paiseh one. The reason all restaurants impose service charge is based on the reason many people don't give tips. TDs in Singapore are most underpaid. Sometimes try to make trip as pleasant for pax also useless. But one thing for sure, Airport with lugguage one I will bill first. If no tip you can take as long as you want to unload your lugguage. WTF are PAX expecting? I give them bellboy service for free? I know some will have the TD integrity code. For me, buay paiseh one since many pax also buay paiseh. Can always find another cab charge only standard fare and also throw in free handjob. Practicality first. The revenue earned has no buffer for service excellence. LTA extra revenue from TDs also don't make this job anything to celerbrate for. Enough to put food on the table.

Give me 10% service charge and I will greet you twice throughout the journey, unload your lugguages and smile at you cumulatively for not less than 3 secs.

Look carefully at your taxi fare decal pasted on the left rear side window. Cumfark clearly stated luggage assistance is at cabby's discretion. We happy we help, we not happy or shoulder arm body problem, no need to assist.

Next time pax buay song, ask them to read the fine print.

And worst, bell boy open door only, they give $2 to $10 tip to bellboy, but cabby lan lan got nothing, and then bellboys pull their bags to their room also get another tip, cabby lan lan go one round, Q up and wait for the next pax.
