€3.75 extra per job isn't to be sneezed at.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

The street work will be covered regardless. The bonus has to be earned so earning it puts more money in our pockets as a collective. I don't work the middle anyway so the PUC more or less compensates for taking an app job in, say, Santry instead of driving to Swords within the speed limit.

4pm is too early fer me to be starting at, the 5pm start used to be a big push fer me.

After midnight passes on Chrimbo nights I like to be able to have a Butchers at what
I'm picking up and make my own decision if I want the fare or not, rather than take a
base or app job which was ordered by a sober'ish person to bring some other highly
intoxicated person home.

4 is early for me too, particularly of a Friday. I don't mind having dinner at dinner time of a Saturday but we generally dine after 18:12 weekdays.

First time I didn't manage to get it. Had 11 by 11.30. Was about get 12th but it was a no show. Decided it's time to turn it off as there was no guarantee to hack it before 4am.

Managed to do 25 jobs for the ton bonus tonight (Sat) despite not starting 'till 18:47. It's grand when you fall into short jobs in the suburbs but a couple of runs into the city and all it's traffic would put you on the back foot at this time of year.

Went out at 18:13 las night (Fri) and only had 5 mytaxi fares when I was called to the bar at 23:46... no chance of getting anywhere near the bonus at that stage.

A late start fer me, I waited fer the Tariff 2 kick-off at 8pm and had only 4 or 5 Mytaxi jobs done by Midnight,
then got 4 or 5 Mytaxi Cancellations in a row, I got de 'Hump' after that and turned it off preferring to pick
what I wanted and could see from the street.

No Offence meant to Mytaxi, but 75 notes fer 20 jobs at Chrimbo time, I mean Really ?

It's hard work getting the 25 job Ton Bobo, unless my OCD kicks in, I'm not bothered with it.
The pax have no discount vouchers so early evening work is slow'ish, and from midnight on
your collecting drunk customers that you don't get the opportunity to drive past if'n ya don't
like the look of em.
