I'd think ondemand taxis should include some weeks of training before driver's onboarding. Also, they should perform real personality checks on drivers... Like arranging a Psuedo trip

Do taxify investigate these things before they sanction the driver? Because some ladies can be very petty at times and from what i can see the man was irked by her behaviour.

Running to Twitter every time you have a small problem..you didn't take the ride, he didn't hurt you...why not look for the next cab??
Customers first tho.

hedonistic:


Well, the girl (customer) is allowed to be pompous; it is one of the privileges that her customership confers on her. On the other hand, the driver (service provider) is NOT allowed to be arrogant in the line of duty. If you can't keep your yeye arrogance at home when you set out for your daily business of providing paid services to the public, then the profession is not for you. It's really that simple.
Nobody is expected to be pompous.. Everybody have got their own pride. I also wouldn't be treated like a slave even if i was getting paid. The problem here is that the man has anger issues. You don't know what anybody is going through, nobody has the right to talk down on anybody. I'm sure you have heard how great entrepreneurs treat their workers, its common sense really. But who knows, maybe he needed this sack to move on to something better.


Anyway, good luck to them both. It's not like it's my problem or yours.

Why's she asking unnecessary questions?
She obviously knows he's the taxify guy, she should have just entered the car, considering the fact that she has already wasted his time.... She doesn't expect him to smile naw haba! This is Nigeria for Christ sake, no one is fxking smiling!


Your problems are many, but a lack of common sense is key among them.
She did the right thing. Why would you expect a lady to just enter a car like that without confirming, especially when she says that the color of the car did not match the driver's description?

But you're right about one thing. This is Nigeria. And here, victim blaming by ignorant people is the norm.

She has told her own side of the story nobody knows what actually happened.Now the man has lost his job and she feel so cool. Do not be quick to judge when you have not heard from both sides. Being a devil doesn't necessarily mean having two horns on the head and looking scary.

From the sounds of her story he didn't conduct himself professionally but posting his picture online was a bit much, could've just reported him to taxify

I don't blame her for trying to confirm if he was with taxify with all these killings and kidnappings we hear about though

Don't judge the poor guy yet. Some ladies are a Driver's worst nightmare. By their way if a lady wears a shirt showing her nipples, what does it imply ?
It implies that u can look, but dare not think of touching.

They don't conduct proper behavioural assessments on these drivers before giving them these jobs. Difference between a sane society and a mad one undecided

Oga, you want someone to follow each driver to their house for a week?

These ride-sharing companies must do better to properly vet their drivers. And we thought Uber had unpleasant drivers, turns out Taxify's drivers are looking worse.

Uhmmm...It an act of aggression. I believe in self discipline in the face of intimidation (sexual). But is everyone me. I'm referring to this other lady that claimed that a Taxify Driver assaulted her sexually by rubbing her nipples.

Are you drunk? What does annoying have to do with this? A driver is supposed to drive to where he/she is told to drive to.

Driving is not supposed to be a fancy job where egos are massaged, taking shit is part of the job description.

Hw are we sure wat she wrote up there was actually wat happened? All dis girls can be very annoying sometimes. I tell u. because the guy cannot just send her that sort of msg without serious disagreement. I am sure she wasn't polite as she claimed.

Hi,

Hope this is not risky for the lady in Question? Without a job could drive him into something worse you know, my candid advise to her is that she should be careful... God protect us all

Cheers

Some men with low self esteem just feel the only way to get back at ladies they feel should be inferior to them is by being extremely rude.
Una son start again. There are rude people in both genders. Rudeness is one of the very shameful attributes many Nigerians have.

Poverty mentality? Because he's a driver abi. He hat he did was wrong but look for another thing talk. Not poverty mentality.
Anyways i know how to handle them

I DONT LIKE TAXIFY AT ALL. THEIR DRIVERS DONT HAVE GOOD INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP.
MY LAST TRIP WITH ONE OF THEM WASNT FASINATING. ITS NOT SOMETHING I LOOK FORWARD TO AGAIN.

BRING BACK OUR UBER.
your UBER lost before? In case u don't know, 70 percent of UBER drivers are also on taxify. You would hardly find a driver who is not using both platform to work. That's how they achieve their target. Don't be surprised to know that the same man could also be operating UBER. What happened to him was just a transfer of aggression.
Re: Taxify Driver Insults Lady After She Canceled Her Trip Because Of His Actions by majorbravo: 3:52pm On Aug 07, 2017
There is just one person to blame here, The Driver.

It is quite obvious the driver doesn't take the job seriously and probably does it for the heck of it.
There is certainly no justification for sending that text to a customer.

Many people are not smart, if they were, alot of situations could be avoided. How can you go to a 40,000 hectare farm with a kitchen knife and expect to cultivate the land in 5 mins? This is usually the mindset of many Nigerians, they expect to make money but aren't willing to invest themselves enough in what they do. Still expecting miracles to happen. The westerners are light-years ahead of us because they don't expect miracles for things they already have the God-given capacity to handle. It makes them more appreciative of the real and true miracles.

If this man had simply installed cameras(with audio capture) in his vehicle, he wouldn't bother what a customer had to say or how they behaved. He would act professionally and be able to defend himself with his company (Taxify). Possibly even get the lady banned from the platform. He clearly isn't smart.

On a second note, I am not a stranger to how these kind of companies operate, they are in it for the money, one less driver, means less income for them. They probably get these sorts of complaints all the time, and would say to the complainant that they have taken care of it, Don't be surprised when you see that same driver still working for them and picking people up, the company would usually just issue the driver a warning and let him continue with his job. The customer would never know.

Some ladies can frustrate drivers, probably the driver must have been waiting for long b4 the lady turn up for the ride.

Since Taxify pay is good, the driver would have remain calm and complete the job.
