Any idea of what this system would look like?

Babadee1900:
I hate waiting

nitigriti:


Would it not be much better if Bolt puts in a bottle of alcohol-based sanitizer, a pack of single-user tri-ply facemasks and a can of aerosol disinfectant in every Bolt car every week?

How about Bolt investing in educating both riders and driver's about safe facemask practices? For example, I can bet my balls that 90% of everyone on this thread don't know how to safely remove their facemasks!

Most don't even know hanging your facemask under your chin is a no-no!

Our Nigerian system window-dresses; and solves no problem. I'm sure this protective shield of a thing is just another Naija contractor cashing out.

In your place of work, do your management give you people hand sanitizers and nose masks every week?
Do you know how many cars are on the platform?
Do you know what it will cost Bolt to fund and prepare for that?

Bolt is simply trying to see how they can protect their partners in this pandemic. These are the people they have a contract with. The rider is a customer. He has no allegiance with Bolt in whatsoever way

Your second point is what I think Bolt can adopt for Riders. But say make dem buy buy everything because they wan protect rider?

Na village Uche go end up before December

northbird:


Bro. Is that your first trip? n is it worth it coming out today?

Babadee1900:
Its my first. Well request has been dull today, if you wish to come out don’t get your expectations high.

After waiting for that girl for 20minutes she called me to tell me that if I can’t wait anymore I should cancel because she’s waiting for alert and she can’t leave until she gets it. I told her okay, waited for another 10mins before I cancelled.

One hour later no request and it was a dead zone (back of sangotedo market), I kept thinking of the fuel I will waste driving back to civilization, I left there to park at Ogidan shopping complex. Still no request, the girl later called me to come pick her if I am still around.

I had no choice than to drive back to pick on offline trip

Lol! You are trying to crucify the messenger while disregarding the message.

So, in my place of work, we went old-fashioned. First, we don't use facemask at work, but there is strict social distancing. Also, common surfaces — countertops, shelves, etc — are wiped down every now and then during the workday. Then it is also mandatory that every staff washes his or her hands every 2 hours with soap and Dettol. Sanitizing hands with alcohol-based sanitizer is very frequently, without count sef.

Then, I, as the leader, takes time out to keep educating my staff. It's not uncommon for me to go round and ask everyone when last he or she washed hands. I remind people regularly not to touch their faces.

I can go on and on ... there's no point getting into this argument for likes.

Thanks Baba . that endless waiting always frays ma nerves.

olaoye15:


Then, how to you estimate the waiting time? Abi you dont charge for waiting?

Felicity0001:

Haha... One of the things we do to survive these period even if it requires moving a rider's property and offloading it and even arranging it in their new house most drivers will gladly do that to at least provide food on their table for themselves and their family.

The annoying thing is most rider know this and take great advantage of it

Victornezzar:
Felicity posted something about Ehailing going down the drain... The dude above me want to invest in it

Too much Agidi

eyinola:

Till now, I doubt if Bolt sent any mails to riders concerning Covid-19 protection tips like riding with the air-conditioning turned off. Bolt is just like the typical Nigerian company to say the least. They care only about their profits and nothing else.

mistadayo:
How I wish I could play a sure bet that would give me minimum of 500k profit. I will be happy.

mistadayo:
Even if it's your car, you have expenses to settle. House rent, NEPA, food, other things like cable subscription. These things don't know that there is fermine in the land may God save us and bless us richly.

OMG what happened to dru. I notice he’s not active on the platform

Babadee1900:
No lie. I’m currently at Dolphin Estate now, every tree I see that looks like a good spot to park and rest has one Corolla driver or more parked under it with reclined driver seat

The waiting time no be here.

pope191:


You have really crack me up today, I resist the urge to drive today, it wasn't easy after cleaning car, but I keep doing the maths in my head... People r no longer going out, not even visitation, olosho is facing it, once office's r not open, you can get a lucky trip of take me to 35km trip and back, but the constant gbam gbam can never b dia on a day like this. Secondly, there's no money in circulation, govt workers and some few r the only ones enjoying right now most business r learning how to work from home, I'm beginning to think, if drivers won't have to park and wait for riders on zoom, cos it seems that's where they have dia riders lately... Thank God for the America movies, I've always fancy the way the stack money and gun somewhere, all it takes for them is getting to the vaults or bunker if they need to disappear or in distress. That sharpened me to understood, all money is not mean to b spend, sometimes u just have to save for no reason and get ur mind off such money like it exist, I think human need to learn this trick, a lucky day does not mean u should blow fast, las las beer and pepper soup no pass 5k, but b very careful of olosho, d return get as e be.

Babadee1900:
You are right bro. One girl on Sunday made me mad, I mean very mad that I had to send her a sms the moment I realized what she did.

I needed a trip desperately, I was around Idowu Dabiri by Sangotedo Blenco, request entered, destination was VI, naso I happy drive sharp sharp reach PU. Called the lady that I’ve arrived. She said she’d be out in a moment. Ok.

Five minutes later she’s yet to come out, I called her, she dropped the call and sent me a sms that she’d be out in a while, I should be patient, I say okay now. Reclined my seat, put AC on the highest and was just thinking about my life . I lost track of time by the time I checked fifteen minutes has passed, ahh so fast!

I called madam, she didn’t pick. I thought she was going to send another sms or she’s coming out already. Two minutes later I just hear pam pam! pam pam! Pam pam! Na request enter!

Ahh that woman don cancel and she no tell me, me I still they mumu they wait.
