aw for fuck's sake i can see it now.
confrontational knackers and dragged up bowsies openin their sewers at the other business owners on mount street.
i'd say there was a meeting after that last 15% fare increase protest on the street.

To be fair... without the protests we'd still be paying 15% freight.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Does the 2% less commission offered by BOLT as against FREE NOW compensate for the total lack of Tips or cash work on BOLT jobs?

I just don't find the work consistent from Bolt unlike FN,I got on a roll from Uber one day a couple of weeks back,a couple of €50 fares in there for good measure but again not consistent enough but supplemental.

It's pretty much 50-50 on my watch, Hal - generally 18:00-20:00 start until c.23:xx.

I'm not sure why you'd want to be compensated for a lack of cash but sitting around ignoring work in the hope of getting a tip doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Since Bolt increased commission to 13% it's been littered with 0% offers. In fact it was 0% all last week and so far this week.

If you don't understand, you don't understand, we'll leave it at that.

I guess cash flow could be an issue for you if relying on Free Now wages being paid on time. My Free Now wages for last week didn't arrive until 07:43 this morning. My commission free Bolt wages hit the bank at 13:50 on Monday as usual.

I forgot that was the Rugbly weekend until Erm posted about it.That's the same week they were giving out 50% discounts to certain passengers.No wonder they couldn't pay us on time.

I think the Irish rugby team was playing the Italian rugby team.I believe 'we' won,according to the passengers.I prefer weekends when there is no big sporting events as it brings other drivers out on days that would have been already busy.

So my point is giving out freebies on busy weekends seems silly when they're low on cash to pay the wages.

So a team of professional sportsmen beat a collection of blokes probably randomly picked off a Rynair flight from Italy... and folk pay to watch that shite... the mind boggles!
