It’s a thankless job and the only job where you’ve got to pay to work.
Most drivers rent their vehicles at a significant cost upwards of three hundred pounds a week with a radio
Then they’ve got to buy the fuel averaging £25 a day
Factor in food and that’s five hundred pounds a week they must earn before the start earning a penny for themselves
If they own the car then they still have HP agreement plus servicing and running costs to bear
Everyone moans when you can’t get a taxi on a Friday/ Saturday night between midnight and two am
Plan ahead and pre book!!
Nobody thinks of the taxi drivers ranked up the rest of the week waiting on a fare
I’m speaking for my neighbour that works ninety plus hours a week for three to four hundred quid
You do the math
He’s not even on minimum wage 😕
