The job didnt get me the car. Side hustle did, a job that forbid me picking up my call even if na emergency is anti-progress. The pay is less than ₦150k plus emotional trauma. My village people are nice, dem no dey whyme me yet. You be comedian sha.

I'm looking at combining e-hailing and my side hustle instead

Very good option combine the two and you will see the difference.
My point is ehailing is not sustainable, you can’t do it for years, I keep wondering how this taxi-cab Baba’s drive for 10yrs and train their children. Young guys can’t go to school and drive for 10yrs mba

Pearl1910:
Drivers mouth don wide thats why they are complaining.
If minimum 10k Net a day is okay for u then I guess u can say it's still profitable.
But like someone advised, start doing it part time (after work and weekends) first and test and see if it's something u can do full time before u resign ur job.

Mr joetem, kindly ask him and other drivers how easy it is to net 10k a day ?
That net 10k a day no be fore newbies, except weekends. Why ?
Cause you will see 10k net on your dashboard but but not in your account because the fuel you would have used to net the 10k daily will be way more than you can imagine.

Glithronix:
NET = the money you have after deduction of fuel+bolt commission+feeding (probably).

Bro them no dey add fuel used, feeding money, data used and credit to call rider into that calculation.
Just minus bolt commission and the remaining is your net, that’s why you will see money on dashboard but your account balance no change.

Felicity001:

A lot of sea foods to select from with plenty oyinbo to make contact to. You fit even find your soul mate an American there self they go there for vacation a lot. Dubai dey too expensive that 1.5m go finish in 3 or 4 days

GeneralZodd:

Hello sinoris....abeg is the hustle still worth it, i'm about to resign to face. My office work is really affecting my mental health, cant continue in a toxic environment, i have a 2010 4plugs car to use.... pls help with responses

Unless you are being laid off. If not just continue with your work that got you 2010 car.
If not your mental health and and physical health will be destroyed driving olosho, yahoo boys and mannerless people up and down Lagos.
Better still find way to jappa, I will not advise anyone to join the hustle now. With fuel scarcity and no surge.
Tabi your village people dey whyne you ?
Wake up

Sorry o Comrades, I apologize for drawing you backwards a bit. I just wan' find out about the philanthropic dude with the Monicker British Naija (I guess), who promised to alleviate the suffering of masses, by offering them cars and the drivers in turn remit proceeds to his Mum tàbí Grandma...

Lol....It seems Chillex tabi IFSHR would be custodians of such vehicles when they arrive

Do we have any beneficiary yet?

I miss BAZOO walai... He for drop one meme for me to know if the story na reality or na fiction, but my guy dey inside -4°c dey hustle... No time

Bro quick come here come hustle, hustling here Na dodo and rice compared to Nigeria.

On sunday my colleague had migraine and called manager that he can’t make it.
We are 3 running 3shift , mine Na morning shift, manager stand in for afternoon shift guy cos he had emergency since friday, now night shift lady called in sick. (Manager face turned red cos he already begged me to do part of his shift that he can’t stay long).
Long and short of story I did my shift, half of Mgr and another full shift and I resumed early morning my normal shift looking sharp.
Manager called to check on me twice saying thank you and appreciating me, he asked me to take Monday off, if I want. . .
I just laughed and said to myself “ yesterday work Na rice, beans and plantain “ ( after all Na 7hrs sleep my body need )
Compare to driving all friday till 12pm and resume Saturday 4am moving club folks up and down Lagos just to net 100k week in week out.

I slept all night shift as per Naija guy ( e get one corner for server room wey camera no reach Na there I sleep)

If anybody tell you abroad no easy tabi cold too much, the person no like you tabi Na odd job dem dey talk about tabi dem no get paper tabi dem be enemies of progress

eyinola:
after they hv confirmed the woman dead they said to move her to the morgue a male must sign na so d body just dey inside my car ooooo wetin for a man to come

Sorry but are you not a man ?
Or Im miss something

I once picked a 23 years old guy from lasuth to Luth they referred him to Luth to be operated on. He was in dis hospital gown and drip on d hand, while brother was holding the drip bag. I wanted to jappa but the sister kept pleading.
He was in my car for more than 2hrs in front of Accident & emergency in Luth. Before one nurse or doctor came to take details and left again after 45 mins I told him I need to go (I feel so bad for the young boy in pains)
So hospital assistant advised they get a cabu cabu-taxi till dey get space for him in the ward.
Gbam one old rickety Datsun/Mazda showed up

Baba say: 2,500 per our
Sister: pls sir it’s just before Doctors attend to him.
Baba: sometimes they treat patients in our car and leave them there to sleep...

I weak , las las Baba gree 1,500 per hour and me I don waste more than 2hrs without shi shi.
But I pity the guy cos he was in pain and no space in emergency ward

Comrade N900 trips after queuing in petrol station... I don’t even know how I would have survived in this fuel scarcity + surge scarcity and drivers score.
God go hasten all comrades steps out of this hustle. Well, the prayer is for people that want to leave now not people that wants to hustle now and play later.

Wait are there people that are still consistently netting 350k monthly ?

microlincoln:
Boss I be newbie and the dread about this airport trip no dey make me near anything MM1 or MM2 ride notification. I wish you can demystify it for we newbie. Thank you and congratulations on the new level

I was tying to tell you to avoid airport request while waiting for island trips. If you wake up very early in week days you will get trips going to - island, airport or bus parks. So ignore the bus parks .

Airport is very simple but watch out for the zebra crossing. Don’t park close to any zebra lines and don’t pick anybody at drop off.

You can drop off riders off at any of the airport drop off zone.

Pick up is only done at the car parks.
I don’t know why people get scared of airports.

I fear Marina/broad street and inside island.
Or bariga/that side close to yaba with plenty one way and even some part of mushin than airport. All those areas with L.G.A touts + Lastma /cbd fear them. No even go there at all

tunlapapa:
BAZ001 my nigga, congratulations!!!
So happy for you. We will be neighbours very soon.

Quick come Baba, do some certification before you leave naija it will help you a lot.

Too much of Driving around Lagos can mess up with someone’s brain most especially technical guys.

Damn...

northbird:
Boss, there was not much surge on Bolt yesterday, as a typical Sunday. Saturday too, was devoid of surge trips. 1.1× is that one surge?

eyinola:
sunday early morning surge is the reason i work every sunday morning but i was disappointed yesterday

AgentXxx:
I work on Friday to Saturday, I managed Saturday like that with the surgeless trips hoping to cash out on Sunday,but Sunday was whacked , I got tired and just went home

Pearl1910:
i
Lolz...make una update una App.

Pearl1910 only you get surge ?
Unconsciously you’ve turned to lia Mohammed defending APC/Buhari bolt

Anytime you talk I just know the opposite is the reality...

samobaba4u:
Congratulations Bro but the Ants drivers must not see the bolded

Thank you all and amen to your prayers

Make Ants driver do leave naija
I meet another Nigerian driver his name was ikotun, I just quickly engage am, he was waiting for a rider.
He said he makes more than $2,000 a week without stress for my mind another easily, week in week out.
$2000 weekly = N1,140,000 (at 570N/$)
So my point is at that age range we still get energy to explore and make mistake and bounce back.
The amount I sold my low mileage Camry was more than the amount I bought it after using it for 7yrs and months.

Every graduate should just continue to write Ielts till you pass and apply for Canada or New Zealand PR (Ausie don tight now).
You will always get job abroad, you can later return home to do business but wetin I know self.
Me self dey find how to settle down as I no get uncle for here and abroad no easy

illicit:
Biceps

Biceps
Woman dey get biceps ?
You wicked ooo

OmodavidoX:
Me I don even stop work since 2pm.

Please how can I get trips that will take me to island ( lekki and the likes ).

Everytime na only mainland trips to ikd, ipaja, surulere, etc.

Should I first drive to probably vi in the morning. Then start my app there.

Omo I wish to always get long trips from mainland to island and back. But I no Dey always see

Wake up early and on you app around 5:30/6am you will get island trips from mainland but be careful of airport and Ojota park trips.

You be newbie ? Your questions don dey plenty

GeneralZodd:
Well spoken, I pity some of us who are still driving the whole of Lagos like headless chicken . By the time they realise what is happening, time have passed them by.

Thats why the App coy made the fares so cheap so that you can always be on the road.

Comrade Haba , headless chicken

[quote author=peacefulhome post=110775713][/quote]Thank you so much,

Gentlelife50:

dru23:
My brother , my brother ... Yankee no easy like that. There is more to life than good road, petrol and the basic things that a government should provide .....

Please and please prepare your mind mentally .. Yankee no send anyone and everyman for himself. Have a reasonable expectation of Yankee .. So many Nigerians couldn't handle Yankee coz they didn't prepare mentally for it ..

Some that came realize that they were jumping from fire to frying pan .. Yankee will make u man if you can survive .. There is no uncle, mommy, big Bros here to help out........

Realize now that work as just started for you.... The USA government provides you the basic things that a government should do .. It is up to you to figure out the rest .......

The reason am saying these is because , I had a friend few years ago .. He came just like the way you did. He was expecting me to do such much for him .. I did the little I can do , the guy finally realize that he is on his own .. He smarten up and got himself together...... There is a notion that if you can survive in Lagos, Nigeria . you can survive in Yankee or anywhere else in the world .. It is all smoke and mirrors my brother...


Either way good luck on your new journey...

In as much as I understand what you are saying.

But please don’t ever compare the work (hustle) in yankee to Nigeria or any other developed country.

Let’s use the present fuel situation as example, able body men wants to hustle but will go and queue for fuel 2:30am and still on queue till 8am just to buy fuel to hustle ?
The average Nigerian youth is not lazy, he wants to work but there is no work so they device means illegally like yahoo, olosho online hookup and all cos they have brain but no right place to Chanel it and they must survive. Look at how many people are asking for car to drive on this thread despite the scarcity and shitty fares.
Give Nigerian the basic things first and see potentials evolving.

Bring them abroad and come see how they will be working 3 jobs all shift cos they can work and earn money not begging to work.

I’ve never had luck of anybody helping me, all I need from people is to point me to right direction and guidance. I will be fine
I discovered this thread (Romeo n Ogunvic) in quest for knowledge.

If you can survive in Lagos you will survive anywhere, in Ukraine, in Russia , even North Korea self.
You don’t know what we go through in Lagos everyday ? Never resting mentally and physically Na up and down

dru23:
Congrats ...... Bro .. This is what happens when you don't owe anyone money .. You worked hard and you didn't snake anybody . ....

This is the progression bro ... Hit me up on my email and we can connect via whatapps.. Maybe we can put two heads together and progress together....


People of nairaland that are reading this .. In life never burn any bridges .. Because you will never know you will cross that bridge ......

Thank God I didn't burn any bridge and BAZZ001 didn't burn any bridge...

Together me and Bazz001 we progress together.. Baba do the needful ..... Send mail .....


Welcome bro .....welcome bro ........

Haba comrade


Please let the sleeping snake crawl back to his hole in peace.

While he was busy digging up, I was busy making progress

PROGRESSION is the key word

pope191:
Short people and scam I've always knw you are a scammer. Fear unserious peeps, within their jokes, they know what they are doing.

Now back to this job is this, this job is that... I'll say it again, I intentionally avoid the crypto wahala. My sermon has always been understand where you are presently and focus on what you want, most especially if you are not a family man or with one or two kids. This hustle is not as bad as we try to paint it, I'm not saying it's going to give you all you want, but it is a damn good place to start.

Baz001 the scammer congratulations, may that soil favour you. But how they allow you enter plane still deh suprise me, abi nah boat you use

Lol, I was almost going into depression or running mental at some point but this faceless thread became my distraction.

Let me give little scenario
I served (Nysc) in Lagos , got a job with multinational 2yrs after my service. Was sent on a project outside Nigeria for 3yrs. I was earning in dollars (estacodes) and all.
Fast forward to 2017/2018 Exxon Mobil took over the coy and all oil rigs and turned every staff to contractors with shitty pay (not less than 500k) and option of changing to permanent staff later... the rest is history.

First Uber driving : ( I had 1.6m cash in my account) I joined the hustle cos I thought you will earn 350k easily without stress.

2nd time: corona happened and we couldn’t go offshore again, we working from home. No more offshore allowance.
We are 9 in my team the first 3 guys dt travelled out in 2017 are now big boys. As in biggest boys
Long story short I’m the 8th person that left Nigeria after wasting my time trying to hustle and get good job cos I like Nigeria.

The only way I was encouraging myself was coming to laugh and catch cruise on this thread cos I can’t kee myself. When my former colleagues are driving 2020 cars and paying mortgage of mansion abroad, I’m her dragging with olosho/Lastma or fake alert 2000 naira.

Let me stop here for now,
But I will say it again any graduate in the age range of 25 - 38yrs driving Uber is wasting away precious time, energy and potentials.

I know it’s not easy cos I tasted of it.
BUT I will rather you do it as side hustle than be relaxed in it.

komodapson:
Stop being a Thomas, you no need am. He don move, he don move...wish am well, the verification and confirmation has nothing to add or minus either from you or his sojourn.

I could remember how some evil ladden folks on this thread, dug deep into archives about his info search on a particular class of visa....brought it out and make mockery of the young lad (in Arsené Wenger voice) ...

Today ñkó? The rest they say is history.. Ò tí jàsópè...
Congratulations once again BAZOO...

But BAZOO, abeg you go do me favor... After you don acclimatize, settle down, gbògbó tí gbó, DL wahala e.t.c

Abeg, help me embark on uber for 3days, so you go fit affirm some assumptions made on this thread.... lol
Nice one bro...be safe

Thank you bro...

Quickly come join. You will not queue for petrol and NEPA won’t take light, that alone don make me dey fresh and fat.

Maybe later later I fit try Uber but d last experience or my mind set of driving Uber in Lagos, is like a trap once u start to pull out is hard.

Thanks to every one congratulating me and the ones looking at me with corner eye.

See what this Spanish Uber driver pasted in his car, he works two jobs too.
He drove for 16mins to come pick me.
He prefers long trip too,
He says he doesn’t like riders that don’t gist with him. Dt it makes d job boring

You are not allowed to seat in front In yankee ... he shock me

His dream is to visit Nigeria and South Africa.
