[mercenary for hire]

Have a look on the twitter lads the stingy fekkers who don't wanna pay the PUC and were complaining about a rubbish service are forecasting the death of mytaxi...it was dead already weeks ago because so many stopped working it.

By the way there were drivers on here and Roys kip saying the PUC was never coming back and was finished...any words lads?Are yis gonna charge it?

There weríe people on here who acted like adults and spoke with the decision makere and put forward a reasoned arguement for the restoration of the fare  card.we  vot what we requested  ow work it or dont.

You got what you requested.I've emails going back years.Fuk them anyway they only caved because the service came to a halt.When you can't get a business customer a cab at 3pm in Dublin 2 yer screwed.The pricks held out until the jobs weren't getting covered.Let's be honest here.

The reason I know is because I was scooping them up listening to the moaning.Business users on twitter saying they haven't gotten a cab in weeks during the day.Also instructing their employees to stop using the service due to unreliability.

Read my post about why they stopped charging the PUC  .it was not a decision they made willingly .i wonder apart from the likes of the smartarsed emails like the ones i use to send did anybode ever put forward a reasoned costed proposal .i know tbe rodent found tim very accomodati g when he met him i spoke with him on the phone two weeks ago and he listened to the argument thought up in toners and agreed to put it to his bosses .he is a man you can talk with and he listens

Erm it was a discount plain and simple.Ya know Daimler made a profit of 8.8 billion last year.They didn't really have to take 12% of the PUC but they did.

So...the question is..how many of yis will drive past a street hail for a MyTaxi fare with PUC on Fri/Sat nights?

your sitting 12th on Leason Street and a Mytaxi job pops up do you accept and offset the commission with the PUC or do you wait on the illegal rank .

You won't catch me on a fukin legal rank...never mind 12th on poxy Leeson St...i tells ya!!

I have been thinking of giving my radio back in recent times as I have been getting 70/80% of my weeks work my taxi, given the news today I feel it's time to ditch the radio, just wondering what incentive if any they offer for having their branding on my car... any info appreciated...cheers.

No need for a radio, or to even pay freight. If you work nights you'll never look back. No point in making cab company scum richer.
Remember they didn't drop freight rates, even at the height of the recession, when hundreds of Taxifolk took their own lives.

Yeah I know what you mean and I knew I would leave eventually, no love lost there,  don't work nights but find the days are busy enough and lucklly enough her indoors has a good job so 5/6 hours a day is enough at the moment...  not to keen to put my taxi branding on the car but if they give an incentive I might... cheers.

Your right Silver they actually took advantage of the situation, that's the main reason I was early to sign up to Hailo and I'm delighted to see it go full circle. I think the cab company's might be getting a taste of what we went through, what comes around goes around and all..

Ok Here is the low down I cannot say what I discussed but I also made that agreement with one of the Reps .The Rodent Rat Stephen Is more intelligent than me thats a fact but I am A better Diplomat I could Convince Jesus he was not a Christian ,The Rodent met with the Boss man In Mytaxi and without shouting or raising his voice he was told what the situation was .After drinking Pints in Toners the Rodent never invite Tim  dont know why we knew the situation .After the Rodent gave Paddy Power some of his hard earned, I told him not to we discussed strategy sorry He discussed a strategy I listened .I put together a submission based on the rodents idea done a bit of maths and the people at My taxi were willing to listen .Now its up to you cover the work or not .if ypu are thinking they will screw you by increasing the  feight if they do you can leave .This is the best deal for drivers read some of my other treads .No doubt some of you will moan .

Plenty of day drivers making a decent wage too with no radio or app affiliations.After a while you learn where not to rank.At the moment the city is busy.Even fosters has been mostly empty after lunch.

Ermy why do ya make things so difficult....I was told weeks ago by the mytaxi rep on the green that there was a move on the PUC on the way.I didn't believe him because I was told the same thing by another member of staff over a year ago.Something had to change.They didn't have any other moves.

Great Im happy for them but as I said in another tread with PUC  I will build my shift around Mytaxi .iF they have the work why would I cut off my nose to spite myself .There are other bits to come but as I said I agreed my conversation as I agreed with a certain rep body would be private .Here is the Pitch that was put to Mytaxi we are all in the Taxi business we have the cars they have the customers In what reality does it not suit us to work together .I have a pain in me bollix with fucktards who wanted something and when they got it wanted something else .

I'm happy John, If carlsberg did taxi apps it would be called Mytaxi.
