Its the Gardai who have sole responsibility for vetting,and maybe sometime in the future,when they stop being afraid of the immigrant council of Ireland,they might actually DO the fukking job properly,instead of paying lip service

Have they not a seat on the board? Met a fellow header outside Marino College there about an hour ago................reckons the more Ombudsman(s) or men you have, the less effective actual law enforcement is.......he was very agitated....think he was about to let rip until I explained the old role of the court jester in the traditional setting of Red Robe and Black Robe.......

In fairness,I get what you're saying.
I usually earn more on a 6 to 10 pm shift than I would 8.30 to 3.30 daytime.
Try doing a Midnight to 4am ANY NIGHT !
No thanks
You would earn Double the dough of those other shifts,
but ya need a strong mind and stomach to do the Nights,
also to be an adrenaline junkie and be 'Tooled Up' helps !

Night time Taxi work is Not fer the 'Faint of Heart' !

No... you think NTA are responsible for vetting. In fact, An Garda Siochana is responsible for vetting. mytaxi doesn't give a flying fuck and isn't required to.
Agreed Ratcatcher, but would you not think that MyTaxi would ask all new drivers if they actually have a permit to work in Eire ?

No, Ken. They are asked that question at licence renewal. I'm not sure if the answer bears any relevance to the licence being renewed or not but it forms part of the declaration we all make. If mytaxi were renting them licensed vehicles they would be obligated to procure a similar declaration.
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Probably? I think he's paid more in freight since he joined my trade than I've turned over in the last 5 years!

Night work probably isn't as shitty as you think. The vast majority of night punters are sound.

Oh I know that. Punters are fine.
It’s tge shitty hours I’m on about.
Done nights for many years.
But the days are as busy as nights.
Between 5am and 7am you can take some nice money, better than any night
