The increase is just a distraction IMO.I haven't heard anyone suggesting a strike or rejection of compulsory card payments.Everyone just accepted and forgot about it.Taxi drivers are shite at maths generally.

That's also forgetting card users rarely tip.And 100% of card payments will be eh..yis know the rest.Taxman etc etc etc..

You can pretend but after a while it will get to the point where you'll be an hour on the ranks again during the day shift waiting for a cash job.Plenty of lads passing back work because they don't take cards already.They end up just waiting and waiting sometimes.

Or you could say the CC machine is working but your phone has no credit.  You can't afford it because you're waiting on all the money to land in your bank account from the CC payments?  I bet it will happen to a few taxi drivers when it comes in!

1400 a week which is 280 a day.
280 a day by 183 days in the school year is 51,250
I used the calculation that 1400 a week multiplied by 26, approx 182 days which equals 36,400
However, your calculation of 280 a day multiplied by 186 is in fact 52,080

Strange how maths works out like that.

All school transport runs are priced on a daily basis.
So depending on the type of school you are operating out of.
Secondary school have 163 days in the school year.
Primary school have 183 school days in the year.
Some special needs school have a summer camp in July so that could be an extra 20 days.

Sounds like a big commitment for a bloke like me, almost like having a real PAYE job without the holiday pay.September is nearly over and I've only just started to do full weeks.Cant imagine getting up early for work 12 months a year.I did it when it was shit but wouldn't be making a habit of it.
