Why is it funny to you?

Ever since I started driving and mind you, I learnt driving and started with manual trans for 6 years before driving auto cars, so am used to both trans and I use both legs to drive manual and auto till kingdom come and I love it. Its the best experience encountered.

So everybody sticks with whats convenient with dem, I don't have to accept ur method because its the norm. My contribution though

I don't understand how this is right to you.

While driving manual, you make use of your left leg only for clutch while the right leg works on brake and accelerator. So in a case of a missing clutch in automatic, the right leg is meant to continue it's duties while the left leg relaxes.
BTW, you are already used to the wrong way so it will be hard for you to change it.

This is for anyone interested!

You need to ask yourself what you need to do.
My advice is for you to get your feet wet on SQL.
Building fancy visuals with BI tools like Tableau or PowerBi is not Data Analysis.
You need to understand logic around crunching the data for insight.

The freetutorialus. com site is no longer working, can you suggest another site?

I was only able to download python hoping to download R language another time before I noticed it wasn't online anymore.

Seriously you can only enjoy This as side hustle and when the car is urs. D money I mk on Sunday really helped for this week.


Will put more effort to increase my revenue

My advice to you when you wanted to start was to stay with bolt, driving on Sundays should be guaranteed with enough sugre to boost your earnings. Try this and see the difference.

And by the way, why don't you want to use bolt?

Gentleswift:
I'm sure you're somebody's father, or a potential one. Just listen to yourself again. Anyways, I've known pearl1910 for some time now so, I'm not fazed by anything coming from you. That was how you misled someone to quit his job by only telling the sweet side of ehailing but when reality caught up with him, you left him to his fate. Just like how I was also misled by all these insecured dashboard posting.
Most fleet owners are selling their cars, experienced people can attest to the fact that, it's not as lucrative as It used to be. But here you are defending bolt with your life. I'm not surprised though, my only concern is the gullible and newbies you're luring with your myopic mentality

I guess I'm done responding to him, he can continue to bark like a rabid dog as he wishes.

Gentleswift:
that's his own wahala. Person wey no know or ever see me dey call me begger. Guys, try and see beyond this ehailing thing. But, if you're contented with the proceeds from ehailing, no wahala.

Anyone who doesn't see beyond the e-hailing will lament in the near future

Pearl1910:
See, before u quote me put on your thinking caps...not in d mood to be nice tonight.
Do u want to tell us what u do for a living which makes u boss of the world? And If u can't tell what u do aren't you jobless?

Who cares if you are nice or not, who gives a damn about that?
But the way you paint Uber/bolt is what amazes me.
At the bolded, does it make sense to you at all?
So because you don't know what I do for living makes me jobless. Its only on this thread you would see people display their earnings, does it mean others on this forum are jobless because they haven't stated what they do or how much they earn.

At times, too much arguments make one turn to mumu.

Gentleswift:
boss pearl said drivers should be pursuing bonuses to makeup for Bolts outrageous commission. This survival mentality is a curse!

A big one!

Pearl1910:
YeaHhhh...I tot as much....u have nothing, absolutely nothing. Senator, President, Bank Manager, even MD CEO is a slave to some people, something or somebody.

Give yourself brain and stop giving yourself excuses to remain jobless and beggarly

Pearl, you are still on this level that Uber/bolt are the best to happen.
So not driving on bolt/Uber makes one jobless?
Na wa for you sha.

Eyinola1:
what's the age requirements? My application was rejected based on age

If you look closely on that page, it's stated 35 as the limit.

Ekeoma3650:
Good Afternoon All, I just bought my car and done with my Indrive registration and Bolt ( remain to go for bolt inspection), have registered for my Lagos state driver license too.

I work at VI ( Monday to Friday) and I stay at ijegun and I have people I carry to work weekdays ( I mk like 4k daily during weekdays)

My issue now is I don't know Lagos route very well and am afraid of those Lasma people. Am thinking of working only Sundays for now as police and Lasma hardly stay on the road on Sundays.

SUGGESTIONS NEEDED
1- Best route for newbie to start from?
2- Route to Avoid by any means necessary?
3- How to know long distance booking in INDRIVE when a rider request?
4- Key things to consider in order to avoid problems on the road?
5 - which area should I focus more in mainland

Personally , na me get car I just need extra income to the use maintain my car and pay some few bills. Considering I also drive to work and carry people too.

6-Can Sunday work earning be enough for me?
7- how to know short distance request on INDRIVE
Please any suggestions will be appreciated alot. To help me as I start this weekend.
THANKS

My only advise for you is to only drive on Sundays on bolt, don't bother about any other apps as requests are abundant on Sundays and I believe bolt should have enough surge to encourage you to earn more.

Gentlelife50:
Dem go deceive who wants to be deceived, na you get time to dey argue.
Anybody that wish to should just pick a car and join the hustle and see for himself.

I just can't believe same person have been typing these kind of narrations for like two months now after "realities" have set in.

deedee44:
He can even choose 28 (I know someone who is 28yrs that they accepted) or a bit higher, the closer to his real age the better

Limit is 35 and I'm very far above it, I would have reduced just to learn.
On the second thought, conditions attached to the first two months are not ok by me as I have two certificates running side by side.

Dailyparrot:
Just like the proverbial lawyer in the Bible that neither fear God nor man.

I am not afraid of ban except they remove the link.

Here's the link to the program. You follow through and complete the application. I think it's beginning by November.

https://theroom.formstack.com/forms/software_engineering_application?

You must have a good computer though. I'm currently using HP pavilion 15.

It's a software development program where you specialize in either frontend or backend in the last 3 months.

One of the jobs you can do as a software developer is website testing

Thanks anyway.

deedee44:
Lol bros abeg no mention me with any post wey concern am, I no know him whereabouts o

Aha, please don't be offended as I never intended it that way.

Let


During the last 10 days I spent in solitude in the mosque as the Muslim religion permits, I was able to make up my mind and said I was going into IT as I didn’t want to do a career job in the Uk so I started with free courses on coursera via Financial Aid, I was living on the money I had saved and also processing the travelling, bought enough data, fuel and was learning like crazy, by the time we would leave for Uk 4months later, I already had cert with Google, IBM, Microsoft, Amazon which were purposely targeted as I had gone through their job websites and learnt about certification that really matters.

Now in the Uk with a plenty offers for jobs as an IT support but am still cherry picking looking for an offer with a sponsorship Visa and still learning like mad. Bagging certification and all.

Like I said above I haven’t arrived where I want but I just want to encourage us that Planning, Sacrifice and Discipline are great tools to success. And nothing is not doable if you know where you are going and plan accordingly..

Apologies for the long write Up

God bless!!!.

Like this as it's very encouraging.

I don't think you would have "cherry picked" if you never had those certs, reasons why it's encouraged to improve "oneself" while driving.

AgentXxx:
Wrong conclusion everywhere, Same excuse most of you were saying while cheerfulgiver keep hitting it hard. Keep finding excuses , It is well… if you need evidence of those who are married with responsibility finishing the course, contact me.

Seems you came ready to argue with anyone who says otherwise which I am not ready for.

10 hrs a day and still able to source for income is hard for many. And by the way, what brings cheerful into your comment with me, I don't remember ever talking about his earnings or him hitting hard nor his dashboard postings.

ReadaDream:
I got accepted for the scholarship in April, I got discouraged because of the time needed. 70hours weekly means I have to dedicate at least 10hrs daily for it.

Shey because say na free make I come kill myself.

Programmes like these are for people with no responsibilities, hence spending such time wouldn't be hard to them.

AgentXxx:
Person wey know wetin e Dey find no go see am as big deal… Software engineer no small for this world oo, if you see how much there are been paid, you wouldn’t say such, how much time do you devote for bolt? Most likely 10hrs or above. This is the battle between instant gratification versus future gratification.

I hated programming right from my school days. Days I tried sitting down to see if I could grasp some basics to lead me on ended with migraine, I stopped going near it since then.

Mjosh1000:
Congratulations sir, I'm happy for you, please my brother needs a car too to drive incase you got any link.
You can whatsapp me on 09061458765 thanks.

What about Dru is he still here?

This your question is quite funny to me sha.
Maybe powerful men like Deedee and one other moniker may know his whereabouts.

Blackbishop:
At this point bro make I whisper into your ear, write her number for under bridge for ikeja talk say she dey do hook up.... And all will be fine bro. God bless

Don't mention what are friends for

you are not nice at all.

Pearl1910:
It's like saying our parents bought brand new cars for N2000 N3000 in the '80s. u think it was easy to get N2,000 that time? The middle class monthly salary was between N50 and N100 that time. So same thing goes now.
Like Tojah has said it's has always been difficult for an average man in every generation. But this our generation, Even rich man they collect wotowoto.

What BUBU can't do doesn't exist.
He failed the first time, failed the second time, now those that brought him the second time want to continue from where he stops.

Last last, everybody go chop out of the breakfast.

Pearl1910:
Only if u know how big and valuable 2.450m was in 2012. It's even bigger than 4m of today

Pearl Pearl, na so another kasala go start

But sincere analysis will tell someone working with a multiple national company should be able to afford such especially when it comes with many perks.

We are talking of 2012 when Uber/bolt have not dreamt of Nigeria. Likewise there are a lot of people who have been to this thread to ask if they can make use of their big cars.
Can you answer what must have happened to to them by thinking of using a big car since that is the vehicle available at their disposal.
BUBU as should know must have happened to them.
There are lots of people who have driven that never thought BUBU could happen to them.

Just so you know that not all see it as a better investment but as a means to get by.

donfortune48:
Pearl I don put am back.
I even got it for 5k while my mechanic was telling me 20k.

Shey you don dey fear to call me out?
Nice one.

pope191:
You are very stupid for saying this. Don't other drivers share tips. Why can't you just take the tip you went and leave people to what they want to do. Must you teach everyone what to do. Nonsense

Hahan pope, already on this level?
I never knew you to be verbally/*keyboardly* offensive.
Please no vex.

Pearl1910:
Abeg who know Mrjaydee

Tell me something.
Do you need to size him up or this call out is about your money?

BAZ001:
Blackbishop is a good politician, telling us how bad Dru is and asking us to forgive him and let go.

and every other comrade Should please sheath their sword for now on behalf of Dr Mrs Dru23 don’t help Dru to break his own home. (He started it though)

Until druski, kweku , dru23 danso comes back with epic reply… my mind tells me he’s working tirelessly to get more information about deedee44 and family.

Dru23 if u know you are not an orphan and dem born you well post your reply and cross boundaries ;
So that deedee and Ogbunigwe2018 can also cross boundary.

For d last time see ur shine shine head don turn to diagram with labels

You ehn! You must be a very troublesome person while in secondary school.

But that guy stepped on too many boundaries.

I wonder what could have warranted bishop and felix to now support him.
Reading back on the thread, you would see he has fought with many on this thread not cruise as it's being claimed here.
If it's cruise, so being an orphan could be used as such?
Mocking drivers could be used as such?

Quarrelled on business section right to car section. He even followed Dee to FX thread.
Someone of such age shouldn't behave that way.

ReadaDream:
Matter sleep for this thread? you wey don buy market

Posts like this are what keep me frequenting this place.

Na by force?


You guys like too much violence sha.
