I do not think so:
1)sometimes u need to make 2 or 3 U turns to pick up,by then u
are 7-10 min away from pickup,deny u of picking up someone just a
min or 2 away in driving time,so u would not be earning for the
next 8-10 minutes of driving.
2)when u reach the pick up point,pax already took another taxi
that just alighted a pax,and gone,wasting time fuel & lost
opportunity.
3) about to arrive,pax cancel the on call job.
4)pax made double or triple booking to different companies,the
taxi that arrives the earliest got the job.
who say take call no good? why so many yao TDs waiting/hiding at
ORQ, Costa Rhu, River valley, etc? Its all depends on how you look
at it and how you tackle it. Luck come into play too...
To me, out of 10 calls I recv today, if there are 1 or 2 that
brings me >$25, are consider good liow. I not greedy one!
Some ppl sweep & sweep, I suck & sweep! heee
