Fellas, no offence but with you guys always complaining bout
horrible passengers the minute someone comes up with an idea you're
quick to return the favour? I mean I support the legal measures
that some of you are taking to ensure that you're business isn't
affected (I think that's fair and warrented) but if you intend to
go all out to destroy the bugger...... Well, karma can be a
bitch.
What karma? Look at his brochure, doesn't he complain about
taxis and taxi drivers? He gets what he deserves. If we misbehave
or break the rules, LTA never gives us a chance, now that taxi
driving is a bit more lucrative (to them, more taxis on the road
means lucrative, less taxis mean less enforcement).
A lot of us however are compelled to ignore some rules which are
really dumb, eg: OMO hirer returning home cannot put change shift
and many others. We take a risk in these but because the rules are
dumb, we need to do what we have to for our own needs and
family's.
But if a pax complains or LTA gets us, can we blame it on karma?
Or hope they too get it. These guys took it upon themselves to try
and make a killing without following the Law, it's a risk they took
and thus must be prepared to face the consequences if caught. Maybe
you have not lived through the era of pirate taxis, I did, although
i was a kid then, but I kid you not, the taxi industry now is
really very very good compared to then. Sure there must some
improvement, but you're barking up the wrong tree looking at
us.
It's the taxi companies and LTA that needs to get their act
together and work proactively with us and passengers. Until they
do, service complains will always occur.
