I hate fukin complementing yis, but I have to ask this question. There are a lot of drivers on here, and I honestly believe some of you , people like John m, ratchatcher, lippy, belker u wha and loads more of you they are just the ones that spring to mind. I consider most of you extremely knowledable, very articulate, certainly able to hold your own in any company, I have worked with HEOS , assistant P Is etc etc in the civil service,and most of these highly paid people couldn't hold a candle to you, so I have to ask the question and I quite serious, WHY THE FUKK ARE YOU DRIVING TAXIS. ? you seem to me to be well above this low skilled job
-
You had me till ye mentioned Ken!! lol
-
Ah well credit where credit is due, but you understand what I'm saying ?
-
Dalymount A lot of us tried work for pay and in some cases like you say we had to listen to arseholes telling us what to do and thought fuck that .I ran a Property maintenance business broke me bollox for little or no cash making sure others got wages before I did .Last recession freed me up got into this can make enough to live on without killing myself but I can see the writing on the wall as Frankie said its not a full time gig now to much effort for little return Weekends and big events like matches or conserts you do ok but you now need to put the hours in .I have 10 years to go before I get a pension if I could get a poor job no work for poor wages I would probably take it .
-
I think your selling yourself, and the others I mentioned short John, seriously I'm not talking about manual labour, I seriously believe some of the guys on here would Excel in managerial positions, or negotions, etc etc. I look at people like Paul Reid whom I know quite well from his Eircom days . Paul excelled up through the ranks , and look at him now head of the HSE. I seriously believe a hell of a lot of posters on here have that same potential, but are CERTAINLY above this low level job.
-
I was in the civil service too for a few years. It was a cushy number at first, got my mortgage when I was working there. But as the years rolled on I started to hate it, same people on the phone everyday with the same problems. I asked my HEO one day if I could sit on the other side of the room just so I could have a different wall to look at. He said, theres people in here sitting at the same desk for 40 years, why should you be any different. I said, Simon I'm taking a career break for a year and did. I went back after the year to the same desk. I resigned 2 weeks later and bought a plate.
-
Horse I know what your saying. But the point I'm making is, when I see the way punters looks down their noses at us, particularly young revelers, they have no idea that the people they are sneering at are far superior to them academically . It's a shame that a highly intelligent man becomes reliant on this job for a living, when he has so much more ability. It was a joke on here for a long time about the erm representing our interest on DCC,. Well I actually believe he would have made a really good rep, and would have been a 1000000 times more effective if we had of took it seriously
-
Best job i've ever had, work your own hours, reasonable pay, and some of my regular customers have become some of my best friends
-
That maybe true, oneandonly, but what I'm saying is you no doubt have/ had the academic ability to far exceed taxi driving
-

I'm incapable of taking orders from people, having a boss for 15 minutes at a time is about as much as I can handle, even then when they argue with my chosen route I boil a little inside
-
I'm with only on that one DM, work your own hours, get out of bed when and if you feel like it. You do need a certain amount of discipline though which on a quite night is hard. But I don't think I could go back to a 9 to 5 ever again. If I wasn't driving a taxi I think the next best thing would be to work from home doing something on a computer for some company.
-
Ah well that's fair enough, you have both given reasons why this job suits you, all in saying is the ability some on here have is probably a waste of great talant , but if it doesn't suit that's a pity
-
We're not cut out for real jobs.....most of us would probably end up doin time for the first fuk who told ye what to do.....barring orders would be the thing.
-
I've tried 9-5 a couple of times, it's not for me... once the novelty wears off. My only "career" regret is not joining the civil service when I left school. It was relatively easy to get in back then but the money was shite. Unfortunately, as a young fella I didn't attach any value to the job for life aspect. Having said that, the taxi has been good to me over the years and I like the freedom. Not sure that I woulda survived at it (in fact I'm pretty sure I wouldn't) if Mrs. Catcher didn't have a reasonable salary though.
-
Another kept man!!
-
Another kept man!!
oh yeah, that too
-
Ah well it's good to hear the different perspectives on the subject, and the one common thing that most of you said was you don't like being told what to do. I can relate to that, but I do think if I had the academic ability of a lot of you, I'd be long gone from here

Rat I always felt you came from a civil service background, by the way you articulate things. Am I right ?

No, never joined the civil service but I could have, it was easy to get in when I left school but the money was shite back then compared to the private sector.
Never attended a CBS either. Marist Fathers preparatory and secondary.
-
I did have a good English teacher though, DM. A man by the name of Ken Shiels, thought of as a bit eccentric because he didn't see education as merely a means to passing exams. Conor McPhearson was actually in my English class - he's widely recognised as the best playwright the country has ever produced, erm - although I've never heard him mention the old school other than to pretend he wasn't much of a student... he was certainly above average and put in a lot more effort than he claims.
-
Father Hand didn't manage to put manners on ya then ?
-
I think he was afraid of me... he was a nervous sort in his teaching days... Curry was a hard act to follow, I guess!
-
Fr Hand ran a tight ship though, they didn't step out of line when he was around
-
I've had some big eejits for bosses ..
Spent 10 years at night Bolton street doing every exam possible me trade ..I was more qualified than anyone in me job except the chief engineer....
I had zero ambition to be a boss ....didnt want to interact with cnuts ..wanted to be on me own ..never applied for promotion....definitely aspergers...
Seen blokes get jobs an they where retarded ...
I knew a bloke kept applying for promotion an they kept turning him down cause he was thick as a plank ....several times I seen him walk straight into a wall or fall over ....the poor cnut hadnt a brain atall ....but they gave in to him an now hes a nice pension an big salary..
Because he turned up every day ...was never late and always said yes ...and showed enthusiasm...
Me on the other hand couldn't stand the dopes in charge ...most them wer politically appointed wit no education....
One the Healy Ray's walked into our job one day with a white coat on him...ide say the only thing he ever dun mechanical was kick tractor tires.....
....I'm glad I'm away from that institution....
The taxi is a great job .....if yu can handle the poverty in old age if yur not a kept man

Looks like a lot of Northsiders on here and past pupils of Chanel--how wise they were they cast me out when I was 14 --a Father O Shea I think !
There was a Fr McCardle--garlic merchant--Tom O Shea mad punter--to name a few--
There was some collection of misfits there both teachers and pupils.Suffered plenty of The Strap in mid sixties there-- pity it wasn't more --I have got to 65 last week without ever been given a weeks wages by any employer--In 1982 was able to borrow 165k at 4 points above Dibour which was running at 20% ---thought I did some good business but sold out partially to a Plonker who took me about 7 years to remedy --made me focus on an exit strategy which I did badly hence ended up in this great business in early 90s as a Hack --commission worked out about 4-6%--juice 32p litre--streets were paved and for me remained like that till 2010 downhill since --15% commission--oh for 90s ???

Well I was a St canices cbs man meself NCR we had so e great times there

Mrs Bullet and I were only talking about Conor McPherson last night. How there was a similarity between characters in The Gambler with Mark Wahlberg and the pisshead university lecturer played by Ronan Mullan/Aidan Parkinson in Conor's play This Lime Tree Bower.
He never gets over being referred to as the Coolock Playwright, no more than Mark O'Rowe is known as the Tallaght Playwright.
I saw the play in Boston in 2001, directed by a friend of my brother, Carmel O'Reilly.
The title of the Conor McPherson play "This Lime Tree Bower" --- currently up at the BCA in a crackling production directed by Carmel O'Reilly for Sugan Theatre Company --- is taken from the Coleridge poem "This Lime tree Bower My Prison." As the lights come up, three men appear on stage at the boundary of J. Michael Griggs' black, bleak bare-wall set, the blackness only broken by six faint white-on-white rectangles/paintings.... as if each doesn't know or care that the others are there...is if they're in prison? or in the mind's eye? in another time?
Then each begins his story. At first it seems the three are not connected to each other, as if Jeff Benish's lighting/shadows move them from one corner to another. Then we discover they do know each other. They were all involved in an incident one night, which, in the telling, will have you on the edge of your seat, wanting to know every detail.
McPherson demonstrates, with very little action and no set --- although you'd swear you saw the graveyard, it's described so vividly --- that I spark is all you need to create dramatic fire. As one of the characters says about story telling "The Irish would rather make something up than tell the truth." What a suspenseful yarn it is, this story of dark deeds and double dealing.
O'Reilly's cast is first rate. Nathanael Gundy exudes innocence as the rosy cheeked teenager who comes of age when his charming but larcenous brother (a luminous performance by Ciaran Crawford) involves him after the fact in a crime. Aiden Parkinson can't miss in Julie Heneghan's playboy get-up, the focus of which is a pair of hip, black-rimmed, sleazy dark glasses worthy of Michael Caine's in "Alfie". Parkinson is the quintessential know-it-all, disdainful of his students, his fellow professors, and especially anyone more proficient than he. He begrudges a visiting linguistic luminary both his fame and his theory, and sets out to embarrass him in public.
He plans a clever put-down but you'll have to see the play to see what's "cultivated" --- as he's fond of saying. Suffice it to say, without props or set your attention is heightened.... You'll leave the theater buzzing from all the images you've absorbed, invigorated by the impact.

Best job i've ever had, work your own hours, reasonable pay, and some of my regular customers have become some of my best friends
I agree 100% with the above post.
I dont pass any heed on the ar$eholes who look down on us, "what do you work at"? "what do you do during the week"? one clown when he heard I went to college said "oh you must be smart so" yeah mate judge peoples intelligence on the fact they went to college or not.
I was thinking of doing a barber course while studying law, i guess im just a mad ejit. I did an office job for a very short time, id rather sleep on the streets than do that again.
I hate having a boss, wearing a suit every day and working in a formal environment. I prefer day work but nights can be great craic at times when driving a taxi.
-
As I said, a common trend seems to be that our taxi drivers don't like being told what to do I can understand that. If I at home and her indoors says to me will you sweep the floor, thats fine no problem with that, but if she says to sweep the floor, then I have a problem with that. That's just an example
-
Nobody likes being told what to do in any job.At the moment I don't like having to spend 10k a year to stay on the road.So we think we have freedom but we really don't anymore.
€200+ a week before you make your own money.Not much freedom there.
-
Still in all honesty, the 350 is quite good, although I notice people are becoming a little bit narky lately, myself included. Probably due to frustration, and anxiety. I suppose a lot of not only worry about ourselves in this time of uncertainty, but we are also worrying about our loved ones
-
I'm saving most of it...haven't spent anything yet as the insurance renewal is about 2k in August if I get back on the road.
-
I see there is talk now that the insurance companies are being asked to give general refunds to customers, of some %
-
Got my renewal during the week,l from Bjp.. €1475 fully comp, they must have decided not to screw me this year because of covid
-
Wow 1475 that's the best quote I've seen for a long tine

Fer me DM I had a troubled childhood both in London (Ginger Paddy) and Cork (Ginger Brit) , I hated school and left at 15 to join me da's bookie business, by aged 21 I was managing the busiest bookie shop (Dillons cross) in Munster, then I got appointed to assistant managing director a few years later and odd's compiler as my mathematical skills came in to play on the lotto odds as basically no one else could else proof or read my math. But I missed the banter of the on counter experience and the total in office odds compiling job was getting boring.
Then I separated with me ex misses and due to the exceptional high court award of 750 per week I had to pay her. I didn't manage it and got sent to prison fer a month, which I served. On release I applying fer my Taxi licence, sat the test and passed it and fer 9 months after worked by day in the bookies and worked by night in the Taxi, easily covering 90 to 100 hours work a week.
Then thankfully in the recession the bookie game went belly-up and I was just now just a Taxi driver and the courts on appeal dropped the 750 to a more lenient 200 per week which I still pay to this day.
The night time Taxi game suited me, I loved it (I even wrote and published a book about it) and still do love it. I know I could probably do better as a math teacher or odd's compiler sitting behind a desk on a 9 to 5 and being told what to do, but No Thanks !

200 a week on taxi wages .You have to get yourself a solicitor .And not yer Da Solicitor .

I dunno, it keeps the bitch monkey off me back and I just pay it fer a simple life.
After all me court cases with her I really dread the place.
I think the final count was about 40 cases, I lost 38 and won 2, not a good record !
-
Irish Billionaire Sean Dunne pays his missus $50 a week 200 a week ransom then your rent and food 350 a week wont cut it .
-
How does someone end up paying what Ken does if he has limited income?All these payments are subject to negotiation as his income changes.Nothing is final.
-
Depends on how its broken down if you still have to cover the mortgage until the kids are 18 then you can get your half of the equity in the gaff 200 might be an investment in your future .
-
Seems bizarre.No point in having equity if yer living in yer motor.Just go on the scratcher then they can't get much out of ya.
-
Fr Hand ran a tight ship though, they didn't step out of line when he was around
He only became headmaster after my time. I had Corry and Harringtion. TBH I was amazed Jaffa got the job after Harrington... as a teacher he wasn't much of an authoritarian, maybe the power gave him confidence?
-
He never gets over being referred to as the Coolock Playwright, no more than Mark O'Rowe is known as the Tallaght Playwright.
Indeed. He emigrated to the Southside... Always a quiet fella in school, strange as it may seem. Obviously came out of his shell in UCD where I believe he started putting on (one man) plays and became the life and soul of the party and a rampant alcoholic, in fact he nearly drank himself to death in his 20s. Thankfully he found a way past that.
-
Not much different to Ken,dont think I reached 38 Court appearances but got to high 20s---I have 3 kids but never married so my freight was 150 per kid--450 yoyos a week-Judges didnt take kindly to our profession at the time--I had a top female brief and after last appearance she said to me Thank God you never married HER !
-
The judge will nearly ALWAYS side with the wife, I don't know if it's still the same. I'm glad I never had such problems
-
Dole ,HAP and you still go to work with all the costs .If you lived in the Flats Big Dommo would of schooled yis .

Dont know why Lads post their Private business on a public forum .Did anybody notice the Man who asked the question didnt answer the question .He has become a disciple of Big Dommo learned the mantra .IF YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING SAY NOTHING ............NOW YOUR TALKING .

What was the name of the book Ken?
-
Do none of you ever read Kens problem he was assistant managing director so was probably a share holder .That would be taken into account by her Vulture .Past and future projected earnings assessed she and the sprogs are entitled to be maintained in the fashion they have become accustomed to .
Big Dommo youngest fella decided he was abandoning ship she was from down the country he agreed to save his marriage that he would move down Sold his gaff in Dublin took about 140k profit then took out a new mortgage on a place down the country .The proceeds of the sale vanished he left she sued he said he lost it playing poker .Now originally when she was looking for a separation she stated his gambling was the cause of her distress .He went into residential treatment to make it look good .His Granny was living with another Son not Dommo so a deal was done he handed over the loot and granny left him the Gaff .The cash was split among the other family members .
Yer one wont get any of his legacy as the Final Decree was signed she is remarried so is he .The lad wasent a gambler at all he had another bird and kid .

Won't be much left if Dommos young lad went into the Rutland centre

Na I mean entitlement to recoup once the kids are 18 or finished full time education at 23 I tink it is .....anyway better off givin her house an fuk off ..
.its only bricks an mortar an wen yur dead ...some other hermit crab moves in
-
John I'll answer any question you, or big Dommo like. Nothing sinister about my past, nothing to report that would raise an eyebrow, I wasn't good in school, and therefore would not of had the ability of most on here, but my initial question was based on curiosity, more then anything else . I just wondered why such learned people, yourself included chose taxi driving, when it's evident you have so more potential
-
I was bored in school when i was in second class I got me new books and learned them all in a few days .Teacher gave out to me for reading the book before he told me to .Realized then you can learn more on your own than a teacher can teach you so never bothered after that .Went to secondary I wanted to go to tech wanted to be an electrician but mother insisted I was going to Secondry .That didnt work out so left before they could educate the intelligence out of me .Dossed casual work as a shopfitter no real work for anybody in the Seventies .Went back as a Mature Student but organised education was beyond me exams and modules that had to be turned in on time .Done Two distance learning Degrees finished one Economics never finished the Politics it was all boloxology lieing about the past or guessing about the future .The one thing I sort of regret I never learned to play a Musical instrument but I dont think I would of put in the effort .
-
Discipline John......i've a few jobs left to do around the house,all the bigger projects done...i'm then gonna get my refurbished snare out and sit in the back garden with my metronome app on my phone and headphones on and i'm gonna start doin some snare exercises.
-
Did I also say a Lazy cunt .Like a few others on here we were around before kids were diagnosed with some sort of dysfunctional character flaw .Thats the main attraction about this job you can walk away and walk back without your tail between your legs .

The big entertainment in my day, was keeping pigeons. One of the best laughs I ever got was one morning in the Eircom Depot we were all waiting for our job allocations for the day. There was a fella called Robbie Corrigan from Wexford, and Robbie always believed anyone who kept pigeons, or allsations was as common as muck and should be avoided at all costs . With that in walks the bould Jimmy Scully from ballyfermot. The most flat Dublin accent you are ever likely to hear. In a loud voice Jimmy says to the CTLcan I have 2 hours casual leave I have to go to dun Loire to release the pigons for a race and the fukin alsation is in the car and I need to get him home to
