Title: Catastrophic failure.
Post by: silverbullet on November 15, 2019, 11:17:22 pm
Ordered a cab this evening for a neighbour.
First guy cancelled...a Keshie.
Second  guy, who I called, would not listen to the directions I was giving.  Google Maps is always wrong, but he insisted on following the FREE NOW App and  got lost.Then he cancelled.
The third guy finally arrived.( with a little help).

So many drivers can't operate without Sat-Nav. Lord help the public.

Immigrants?

Why didn't you move the flag on the map to the desired pick up point... or let your neighbour order their own cab?

Can the Nokia still make phone calls?
Why didn't you correct the flag position on the map when ordering?

Doesn't work. And that's  when I'm out in front of the house.
It directs the F/Ma's into a Gaelscoil...that'll learn them! :o

You should be able to slide the map. I've picked up a girl 2 or 3 doors from your house with no difficulty.
