Aiya, you earn $50 more or less, also would’t make you a millionaires, and even you huat, end of the month also same same.
To earn profit in taxi driving is simple, just follow the regulations
Ha, ha, very true. High risk low rewards for breaching the rules. Not worth yet dumb cabbies still do it lah.

Fetch an ang moh and his Chinese girlfriend to Yio Chu Kang after midnight. Fare was $12.
He said he loves Singapore taxis. He said in London, that kind of distance after midnight easily costs 6x more. I was like "huh, wtf?". We are overworked, underpaid ... sigh

after midnight $12 only?
short trip ah...
Yah, not so long trip but point is he said he will have to pay 6x more in London. No wonder London cabbies are not like our cabbies here. Here like "job of last resort", only for desperadoes. Hope this will change soon....

i think its because there's many public transport alternatives. party goers want to save a bit on transport, go countdown nearer to home

i agree, i see less tipping or generous pax.
as long as u don't lost, its considered profit already
Aiyo, taxi fares so expensive, how to tip? Maybe cheap compared to Londoners but to most pax, it is really expensive, especially with surcharges. Many times, pax underpay, ignore the surcharges shown then when asked to pay more, they were shocked!
Yet we are not making much due to high cost.
Though got fare revision. What happened? No sound, no pic?
Taxi fare expensive? Ya lah compare to Thailand, Boleh land sibo....LOL
