Worst night of the year to work as a taxi driver?
« on: November 01, 2022, 10:13:30 am »
Hands down for me its the 31st of October. I decided after my first 3 of them to never work that night again.
I did a few runs though this year for people I know and carefully picked another 2 or 3 customers off the street, older people, not young coked up young ones. what is the story with that night? they should have had riot police on the streets in my opinion and I only work in a small town in the west.

what is your night you refuse to work?

I worked Halloween last night (Cork southside only), but only from midnight to 6am when all the egg throwers were gone to bed, the majority was FN work and I had not a single problem fer the whole shift on either app or street work.

Sorry I made a mistake, its the 30th of October that is the worst night for me, not the 31st, I dont work the 31st oct as there wouldnt be anyone around to bring home.
