Just use it when it suits you.
Don’t depend on it like the other turkeys with the 3 seconds advantage and body wraps.

Wasn't it great that you could just make the decision to turn off the App, No contracts, No P45's, just walk away.

I don't over think FN, they play their logistics cards very close to their chest. I turn it on frequently and if'n I get jobs off it well and good, if I get street hails well and good, whom ever puts their hand up First is my customer. I am a Cork Branded Ambassador and quiet honestly I have no complaints with the amount of work coming in from FN.
The PUC negates the 12% commission, last week I did 63 jobs = 126 Euro in PUC, and paid 101 Euro in commission, which puts me a 'Pony' up over commission. I would rather drive to a job than wait on a rank, but we are all different.

I like my stickers. My cab is a work horse and I spent a lot of time online about 10 years back looking fer the exact work horse cab that I wanted and I did get exactly what I wanted in the end. An Avensis hatchback in Silver with 2 C Reg plates on it, then was added the Insurance disc, the NCT disc, the Motor Tax disc, the 2 Green Daisy Suitability discs, the Roofsign with all it's logo's on it, the 2 front door Taxi Decal/Stickers and a mounted Taxi dashboard I.D. And I'm kinda thinking; "What difference is another few stickers gonna make ?".

Really Octy ! My work horse taxi has more logo's on it than a Ball bearing Muppet Cyclist !

What difference will another few stickers do if'n I get preferential work fer it ?

I don't have stickers and rarely have priority and all I really get sent are the leftovers.Usually short jobs around town.I can do alright from them thanks to the shit traffic.The only time I get a decent job is when it's busy for the sticker lads.It's been like that for a long time now and I just try to use it to my advantage when possible.

The only time I take longer jobs is when I want to finish up.Never go southside anymore as there's always feck all coming back.Just a waste of time.Loadsa cars waiting in Sandyford and loads waiting at the Airport.All because they won't do the short hops in town.

I'm hoping they put the commission up soon as drivers have become more and more complacent and need a good kick up the hole.Might encourage them to push back a bit.

To me it's a matter of life and death ken who controls my job...I'm certainly not putting any cnuts stickers on me car wen he didn't pay for it ,ot the insurance, or the tyres or anything else and then he fukin charges me and introduces an unfair competition systems to cause division amongst those he would wish to control and ultimately replace ....
If I have to explain it anymore to you then I'm wasting me time....but maybethe passing of  time will open yur eyes
