Today is
the 15th day I am
on the road. I decided that my 2 weeks probation
period is over, and
from now on I will:
1. Leave the BUTTER at
home. Enough
already, I will not let the pax screw me,
or rather not giving them reason to screw me
anymore.
Lucky in
the past two weeks I only got scolded twice, both by Aunties and
both going to Aljunied ChapLau (Circuit
Rd). Basket,
there must be something wrong with the air and
fengshui there.
There's always something wrong with people from this area (toddler
rape, murder, what else? J )
2.
Stop collecting those trips
data. In the
past two weeks, every end of shift I will take pictures of the trip
history on the MDT and copy the data over to Excel spreadsheet. See
how much I have done until 8pm, from 8 to midnight, and midnight
until the time I knock off. And from there if I get any lower
collection, at least try to understand why and hopefully can do
better next time.
KNN
this paikia Poolz talks
about thinking and strategizing driver lah, make my
small old brain work hard only (He he, actually
thanks to him, I think I have become a little bit better driver
these two weeks J. Kudos to
you Poolz!!)
3.
Stop printing lots of
receipts. Sometimes
when I get to ulu places
(read CCK and surrounding mountains), I usually print out receipt,
so later that night when I do the spreadsheet I can put remark what
time the pax get down
and how long I cruise idle before I get the next
pax onboard.
For example that night from WDL I went to
queue at NS and spent nearly one hour idle, means no
income L
As I am
not printing receipts anymore, the uncle hirer must be
very happy J. He must
have thought why so many of my pax asking for
receipt, maybe they all want to complain me. Ha
ha ha…..
From today
onwards until forever, will tell pax “This is
my second week driving” when they ask. J
Next step
I would like to learn:
a. How to
read “CCK and surrounding mountains” written on the
pax forehead.
I am not really talking about the obvious (like seeing those in
party dress or aunties, or Pooz’ favourite auditor
type with laptop, etc) but those with more subtle
dressing.
b. How to
cruise and catch booking inside CBD. Some brothers
here seems to be very
successful in doing this.
Next level
a couple months down the road, maybe to learn the SATS
biz. And
ultimately will be to learn $$$ plus meter
J (it's legal meh??)
