 HAILO could do 50% off nappies for drivers, considering they'll shit themselves every time they hear a cough or sneeze in the back.

I dont think many of the pubs will reopen as not going to viable --if the premises is paid for it will be just mothballed until vaccine,excuse to let expensive staff go and if its in debt-- rented as long as they stay closed they have some sort of an out---staff gone --rates holiday qualify for whatever rescue package Gov decide--there will be no shortage of minimum wage staff in new year--you can forget about nightclubs,Harcourt st will be wiped out till vaccine !

The despatchers?

They can all avail of the government wage top-up so they're unlikely to be in trouble.
A lot less drivers paying base now, even at €25pw. FN have most of the work, despatchers will have a lot less drivers when this is over, and no real means of getting them back without a huge investment in IT.
Trump has called for help, so I'm on a plane heading for The Strait of Hormuz, talk soon.

To catch the clippings on the floor then straight into the bin.Using anything that isn't disposable that has to be cleaned just takes more time.I'm busy..
I usually run extension lead outside , off with the top , sit on an auld step ladder and run the razor machine over me loaf and beard, or if the wife is in good form she does it.

Give yourself a good shake down when finished and all hair droppings are outside.
He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because he fears.

The only time I need an actual newspaper is when I'm shaving me head.I didn't think the Herald was still going.


Wat will we  wash windows with now?

When I used to clean the windows on the taxi I'd be using kitchen towels.Back when we had more time to do it.Now it looks like we might have time to clean the car again.

Yanks are lying as well Texas are burning a few 100 a day but recording about 20 or 30 deaths ,Texas is a Big Republican Vote for Trump .The real number for the states is nearer 200 k than 70k .Russia is riddled .I have family in Africa and to keep China Happy as they are big investors A lot of African countries are not even counting the cases .Since Trump reopened America the number of recorded deaths has been over 2000 a day ,it was down below that .Are we doing the right thing going back to work so soon .

  Back on Topic Girl I know works for Independent news she says that the Evening Herald might be turned into an on line paper only .

you might fall out a window :-\
i was down town today...not dublin in the west

Not the pubs in talking about

Truth be told Hailo revolutionised the Taxi business here, more people use Taxis as a result of their innovation, hopefully they continue to do so after the storm
If it was your site I would think that you were click baiting. Worst thing to ever happen to the biz. Was making more per hour in 2003 than now. They are riding us and as yet are only half up us.

And drivers are letting them, simply by being willing participants

+1. Takings were higher during the last boom and freight was significantly lower.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.
