After reading so many posts here, all by relief
drivers, I think this forum should be rename as
"reliefcabby.sgforum".
All the views presented are skewed that way...reliefs earned
more, reliefs are better, smarter...blah blah...
If an OMO were to come in..they will soon feel uncomfortable
with this biasedness..little wonder not many stay around to
post.
U are prejudice......obviously u never read my post or my
uncompleted newbie guide. If not you will know that I have been an
OMO for over a year now. ^^ lol...............
However, you are right to say that majority of the pple here
propagate pple to become a relief over OMO.
Not that being an OMO driver is bad, but it is definitely easier
for a driver to start off (or to stay as a relief). Like what some
pple says, OMO is no life. I have driver a 7 seater for over a year
with no relief. Not that my earnings are bad, infact compared to
many pple of my batch, I would say I beat their earnings flat. Of
course there are some drivers here who in the past mentioned I have
bookings/airport transfer blah blah blah.
The bottom line is, irregardless of what kind of TD you are,
your income depend very much on your mentality and motivation. With
bit of business mind, you can earn good money.
Sadly to say, to my observation, some drivers may not be
sensitive enough why new pple are desperate enough to be a hirer.
So instead of advicing them to do better or share with how to go
about conducting their trade, they just whine non-stop about
problems. But I must add that it is not that they dun care, they
just dunno how to type it in such a way in an online community
forum to show that they emphatize with hirer who faces struggle as
a new guy.
Seriously speaking, if OMO or being a hirer is really that bad,
taxi companies would have to close shop by now. On top of that all
relief will "jia hong" (idle) cause there is not enough hirer to
look for relief.
Therefore this is defnitely not a relief only forum. You need to
read slowly and taste the caring kindness behind those broken
english. And O, most important, dun believe too much of wad taxi
drivers say. This is especially when they are boasting. Cause we
all know that all are bull shits.....for eg, if a driver can
practically avoid going to 1/2 of the Singapore Locale, bloody crap
how in the world he tan jia.......
Lakeview will have problem looking for drivers to fetch all
their coorperate jobs offer. Cause if u tell me no one goes to
places like Woodlands, Hougang, Jurong West etc, I eat noodle with
my nose.
And O.....usually the pros are the silent one...like
submarine....if u never use sonar......BOOM!!!!! Topedoe
strike!
If u wan to be OMO, take the advice given here, go find a relief
...or the very least, weekend relief. Save some time for
family......why sweat like slave to pay rent.....
