drive taxi not easy hor....i believe u guys got to manage your mood well everyday, if not can burst blood vessel ah lol.

Our mood is always ok .... it's those commuters that makes our blood boils .

They can spent thousands of dollars in Luis Viuitton , but surcharge $3 , they asked why ?

And when they explain to them , nag nag nag knn .

Can spent $5 for Coffee bean Ice Mocca , taxi fare jump $0.20 more , they can say we go one big round .

how abt arguing with pax? if pax is unreasonable or rude,will you bother to argue?

I always reason out with unreasonable pax,but i do it such a way they won't felt offended,they will not have a ground to shoot me back to lta

I firmly but politely explain & debate...esp to ang mo,i'll be very careful with the words i used

guess my years of exp in the sales industry help me alot how to deal & argue with unreasonable people

Teolk SG

I don't care who u r, u can be LKY,white or blue collar,bangala or lawyer/doctors. as long as i'm doing the right thing,I will not give way

at the very least i'll make u 'ma lu' before u leave my cab

what about passengers bought durians, taking cab. they are not eating, but bringing it home to eat. do you tell them to put the durians in the bonnet behind?

Pay first , then i give them my receipt , no point arguing , i'll let LTA deal with me , not them .

Talk what ?

It's a Strictly NO for me , no durians pls .

But hey , i dun mind if they are put inside those polyfoam boxes .

But plastic bags must tied to the maximum .

Like that not that bad ,

at joo chiat after 12am… half drunk man go joo seng… i repeated “joo seng hor?” “ya lah, want me to drive or not?”

me a bit hot liao…. then i take a short cut…. he asked y take this lane?.... “shorter” i said…. then got one car block me for a few secs…. he said “ho say liao loh, short cut loh….”

me damn hot liao… ask him to take another cab…. he threaten to complain me jia lat jia lat…. i told him go down first then complain… remember to complan, dont forget but get down first fast…. haha….

1 year since then, no lta kopi to drink leh…. haha

Haha easy lah...so you want kilimanjaro or not, very aroma brewed.

Than pax alway ask you asked to(drop of point) at bus stop. Is this a normal pratice or pick them up at bus stop. Try CDB than you got a chance. So paxs alway suka suka like to do what they like, after traffic junction also i ever encounted. Once white mice at bus lane with camera, pax a foreigner I think at oldham road. near the bus stop. Who dare to go in? ALN you try this.

Poolman SG

I am the kind of cabby , the more u wanna complaint , the more i want you to complaint ....

"Get out or else i call the police !!!"

ALN SG

if i know high chance kena warden summon, me sure wont take risk… esp drop off….

if pick up during peak hr, and i see no warden, maybe me take… hungry cabby…. haha

kinwashi SG

What u think a good cabby should do , and what a cabby shouldn't do ?

Keep the change from paxs.

Everyday, after pax paying you the fare, sure got some small sum of coins change back to them, if they told... keep it, it's ok they told, or keep the changes. So... must we accept it? How much did you ever received that token of appreciation for your service render? ALN how much is your portion on this ...you dun love interact to paxs during your trip, should be the most boring trip alway..no entertainment no radio in your cab.... only chiong from A to B destination.. the most hungiest F1 cabby in SG...hehe. is that so? what will be your comment?

ALN SG

i like pax to round up fare… enough for me liao…

actually, if fare is say $8.1, me always accept $8 enough liao…. neat mah….

yeah, i dun expect or work for tip… but tip or no tip, me still greet hi and thank you…. me best cabby in sg mah…. hahaha…

so far, my best tip is $50 keep the change for $10.5 fare… steam….

ALN SG

so kin, what is your best tip?

ALN SG

still remember once a ang moh pax flagged me with a $50 note…

at indoor stadium and many pax at 11pm plus….

me didnt take him cos on call….

still cant forget the $50 till today…. hahaha

ALN SG

this sort of happening can only happened on a CNY Eve ..... many Non-Chinese drivers can tell u that .

We Chinese will never got that .

Where got chance ?

Nowadays even chinese do a quick Reunion Lunch or dinner and quickly off to work .

Coming next year , with extra 1000 Toyota Wishes , there'll be more competitions on the road .

Now we can sense it already .

Cannot imagine 2012 , when there is almost 2000 extra Wishes plus the current total fleet on the road , scary .
