Make more with a 7 seater?
« on: April 05, 2018, 01:28:36 pm »
The crowd I rent my taxi off have offered me a  new 7 seater at a slightly higher rent.

Is it worth taking it?   

Do you have to work it differently?

as in build up a client base, work with a dispatcher/App or work at DAP?
(I heard that the DAA are issuing permits to 7 seater wheelies)

+1.

Park in McDonalds at the 'Port and save between €400-€430 on Kesh fees annually.Another plus is that you get a call out charge, keshies don't.

Forgot the Meds John?

You forgot to mention part timer too. (In college)

I am a renter, what's that got to do with anything?
No choice but to rent.

Definitely not an ambassador or anything like it. Maybe I should and learn how they operate.

Yes, you do have to work it differently, I worked an 8 seater wheelie fer about 4 months as a renter and it totally did not suit my 'Wham Bam thank you Mam' style of night time taxi'ing. Hailers on the street will lower their hand when they see a minibus approaching, at the rank many customers will bypass a minibus fer a saloon.
If'n ya have a cushy Schoolie and are aligned to a base or MyTaxi then it might work, but the only nights that ya can make a few quid in a wheelie is the weekend nights.

P.S. Be sure to watch the film "One flew over the Cuckko's nest" before you apply fer a Kesh pass !

Best film ever made...... The lunatics are runnin the asylum....... In the 50s they introduced frontal lobotomy in Ireland in the nut houses..... It involved drilling 2 holes either side o the temple an stickin piano wire from one side to the other adjacent the skull.... An pullin it tight wit a vice grips or sumtin..... They learned it of the nazis
...be careful pickin up the dickie bows outside the collage of surgeon's....
They're all fukin mad

what about poor Rose Kennedy, JFK's sister.
She was a bit of a rebellious young one and the parents lobotomised her brain to 'fix' her and turned her in to a vegetable.
a fuckin disgrace.
