Better all with balanced �禄寿. Even buying Vietnamese bribes for $10000 better than marrying old and ugly rich woman. Only problem is cannot buy HDB flat that fast after marrying her.
I am really enlighted by your analogy on �禄寿. Now I got �, 禄 is not enough, 寿is in amber light.

If you aiming for 禄 and 寿, go double-shifted. Highest money and daily max driving capped at 12 hours.
If you are aiming for balanced �禄寿, go OMO. Sunday and public holidays got car to fetch family anywhere. Morning got car to fetch kids to school. 寿 would be there if you dont drive too much but 禄 lowest but dont have to spend 6-digit money to buy another car.

Double shifted means being a relief for 12 hours?

Don't like this lah... Neutral-Thinker is trying to help. Plus, I really gets enlighted by his �禄寿 analogy which I feel is very wise.
Which job is not "苦��"? All jobs are like that...

Double-shifted means operate on 12-hour shift as relief or hirer. Day time 12 hours , night time most drivers stop after 7-10 hours because not enough customers for everyone.

Do you carry metal rods or weapons to protect yourself just in case you're attacked?
Is personal accident insurance a must buy for all TDs or covered by TCs?

Metal rod too excessive and may render you wrong in court because you could be accused of harming others using a weapon.
The Singapore law protects cabbies ( see http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/singapore/nus-law-prof-who-attacked/1942554.html . NUS also sacked him after that. ). So in the unfortunate event of an assault, the passenger would be at fault and would have to compensate you.

Take it easy lah, this one not intentionally missed call one, just unhappy not to be able to get your service.
Once in a while, I would also get those intentionally make call-bookings but did not bother to cancer or pick up phone when I called them or intentionally make me wait 15 minutes then told me she at another location. I just took it as damn suay meet this kind, lost >$5 and quicky moved on to get another customer.
Why the fk are they so many fkrs on the road using high beam?!? Do they even know what it is used for? Even taxis also abuse their high beam.
Really no idea how to handle this headaache while driving nights.
Originally posted by bowah:No show call is common in SIngapore, yet the authority is not doing anything about it, some apps call charges pax for no show, but that reduced the nos of call
IMO, there must be a system of discipline put in place for both cabbies and paxs for pax no show and cab no show, this might help to negate such thing from happening and therefore, both side honoured the calls, it will help us to be more responsible and also make the society a more gracious one.
Some called, but no show, then press no show, drive off only, someone wave yr cab….what the fark, these are the worst cheapo pax.
And as long as no system is in place and that there is no protection for cabby, alway be prepare for 20% no show wherever you pick a call, be it going to yr preferred destination or a call that is going AP at the west.
Right, I also encountered this kind of customers before too..... Drove from far far away to entertain him or her....then almost reached there then suddenly cancelled. Then got one customer already standing at the roadside flagging for taxi. Comfort and Grabtaxi system allows customers to monitor the called cab's location. This is a loophole exploited by the most "Chao Kuan" customers to save the call-booking fee; fortunately most customers are not like that.
I kena even worse. Reached location, pax called and said he saw me turning into carpark but he is now at bus stop just outside carpark. Asked me to trun back out.
So I turn back into main road immediately and headed for the bus stop, boh lang. Called him several times, no answer. Suspected he must have taken another cab.... chun chun a few mins later call cancelled.... mother fucker. Why got this time of arsehole in this world?
Really tulan but told myself to cool down and forget it. No point letting this turkey get me down. Later, lao tian rewarded me with some good trips.
Life is like that. The more frustrated you are, the more bad luck you get. So learn to let go and good luck will follow you. Life is short, don't ever waste it on such trivial matters.... no wonder EQ is so important, not just IQ.
Hope our elected politicians have good EQ not just IQ. If not, how to bring Singapore forward?
The prob is some got farking bo chap attitude leh wen call for cab
Standard practice wen u late = call the td n inform la
Knn tis simple thing also cannot do...dunno wat to say la
At least those who cancel the calls are much more better than the assholes
who don't answer/off hp type
They make u wait for nothing lol

Correct, when you could take all the 苦�� of taxi driving, then you would get the �禄寿 that you want.
The 苦 of driving 12 hours.
The little bit of � of some nasty customers (most customers not like that)
� silently for a few hours then come here and relate your unhappy experience that day or to your other friends and folks.

I met such people before and was really having lousy hour that day. But I did not let it affect me and had good profit on a few of those few days. Even had one of my most profitable days once despite having a not-so-nice customer that day.
However on that particular day that I mentioned earlier, I fell below my daily average earnings.
