Free now. A day late and a dollar short.

Free now latest offering on the newsfeed is to tell us of the new pup self employed regulations, exactly a week after it was introduced. Like every taxi driver in the country didnt already know about it ?  and most had gotten there first payment before free now even told us about it. Thats the day late bit.

As for the dollar short, both daimler and bmw are the owners of free now and both are multi billion euro companies, did free now offer us taxi drivers anything at all in the way of covid help or any commission drop for the next 6 weeks of lockdown ? NO.

Im sitting on the Canal near Portabello with Big Dommo and Billy the Bastard watching the local kids trowing stones at a beer can floating in the canal .Billy says Im thinking of leaving me missus .I was looking at her this morning and thinking Jasus she is uguly .Dommo says to him sure she was ugly when you married her .Reminds me of Fellas complaining about My Taxi /Hailo /Free Now .You knew they were ugly when you signed up why complain now .

What I find is mad is the lads that were working during the last lock down acting like they're some sort of heroes for being greedy and turning down the €350.

For most people €350 is a really nice wage.But these lads are crying now that they're idle and burned out.It's not Freenows fault.They want as many drivers on the app available for work.As far as they're concerned you are getting a top-up so have little to complain about.

To be fair, commission is still only 15% (afaik).
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.
