Lol no vex boss. I remember one day wey I vex blow empty from Maryland to Ikotun. That day was mad ehn. I sha manage to rugged it laidat. Day wey no too gel sef. This silly girl was now asking me to enter inside hotel compound to come and pick her. I ask if she carry load, she say no. Me wey my eyes dey red from traffic and stupid stuffs wey don happen dat day. I just cancel the ride, go offline and zoom off. This girl call me tire.
I vex so tey I reach house sef forget to chop.

There are days like that boss.

My brother, it can be very annoying, aswear.
And some riders self no know Whats up with this stuff, they just don't know.
Na person wey dey inside this hustle go understand what's in it.
The things I didn't know about Uber drivers hustle when I was a rider, I've known them now. So, I won't blame the riders much cos they don't know what's popping.
As I dey like this, na N20,900 I grossed today and I missed the daily bonus 2.4k.
I burnt fuel as well and losing drivers scores.
As I dey like this, na me and island get ourselves till Tuesday.
Much respect, boss.

I think it is now a must I go and pitch my tent on island from tomorrow, Saturday, till Tuesday.
Can't even make reasonable gross here, traffic just full everywhere.
Make person dey receive orders of 4-5/mins but when map route it, you go dey see 19-22 mins to pick up.
I don cancel tire so teyyyy, fear dey catch me to go online.
This mainland is fvcked mehn - government is crap on road infrastructure that they would be slow on and even abandon.
Island traffic still pay me pass this mainland.
After today, na island people get my service till Tuesday.
I park for lateef jakande road like this and I fit vex dey go house if Una whine me for here.
Much respect, bosses.

pope191:

donbrowser:

Omoh you try sha

As in. This hustle, na learning process ooh. The things I didn't know when I started, I've known some of them. And I'm still knowing more.
As I dey like this, I know places I go reject if they show on ride request.
All thanks to this platform and dem bosses.

pope191:
I sha hope when you leave message for the guy, you did not tell him "much respect boss"? Else I'll be so mad at both of you, might even go to the guy house to take it back

SamuelTaiw0:

Boss, na the situation of that moment caused make I allow him go without confirming the payment.
You know that kind traffic wey everybody eyes dey red, trucks danfo, bikes and dem dey drive like mad to not allow anyone overtake or chance them, nobody go tell you before you stay focused, if not, dem go bash person car with no sorry.
It is well oooh.
Much respect, boss.

donfortune48:
Lolzz.
Too bad.

Sorry about that.
These are things we learn from experience.
Cos no experienced driver can ever take such trip, unless on an agreed offline trip.

Again, the best route to go to those area in the past 10+ yrs is Egbeda Igando route. Though the map will always tell you to follow Alakija-Alaba side.

I for say make you share his number here so we send him goodwill messages from the Oracle. But it's been over a month.
Sorry bro.

Much respect Boy.

Abi naah. E don tey.
It is well, baba.
God no go shame us.

id4sho:
Lol,
Boss, I registered for bolt not using my driver licences. They are now requesting to go to their office for inspection . Will I be allowed to be inspected?

This, I don't know.
Maybe the legends here go have a way around it.
Much respect, boss.

donfortune48:
You read and learn from other people's experiences here.

Now E Don reach your turn to share, you come dey call am bygone abi?

It's over a month already.
Picked the rider (a man) from Iyana Isolo in the morning, going to Iyana-Iba, due to his appointment, destination was changed to Iyana Ishashi.
On our way going, there was a mad traffic jam that held us on the way after passing Alaba market a bit. So, he was in a hurry to meet up with his appointment, and he bad 2 traveling bags.
When traffic was not moving, I suggested he should take 2 bikes then, one for his loads and the other for himself, so that he could meet up his appointment.
He appreciated that suggestion, so we stopped 2 bikes.
I gave him my account details to transfer as he asked.
When I made my way back to go to a sane area like Maryland and environ, na war. That area na mad drivers full there + trucks. Because of this, no amount of surge to take me to that axis, even if it's 3x high demand.
In a nutshell, he didn't transfer sha.
I called this man say him never transfer, he said he would do it now. Still the same, he didn't transfer. I called him tire, na d same thing throughout that day, the following day, the alaye blocked my numbers. Amount was 4.1k.
I wanted to overlook and hand him over to karma but when I thought about my experience driving out of that Ojo road, I contacted Bolt via mail immediately and explained. Bolt demanded for the person's contact, I sent it to them.
Later got a mail from bolt say the person has been contacted and would make my payment soon. Throughout that day, I no see anything. I mailed bolt back say I no see anything. Bolt responded that they would contact the person again and get back to me.
By the time bolt got back to me, they came with "the individual is no longer reachable", alaye don block Bolt too be that.
Them now say dem go compensate me for it. Na so I saw amount of 4k as bonus target on my profile with just 5 trips and 4 hours or so sha.
I quickly did that in the morning and won the money.
Na so e take go.
Much respect, bossman.

donfortune48:

northbird:
They sent me a ride package bonus of ₦5000, 5 trips, 5 hours 85% bla bla on Sunday. Today, they sent ₦4000. I'm like. This is serious, they want all drivers back.

Hmmmm. Are you sure you didn't report to bolt of any rider who didn't pay after ride completed?
Cos this bonus offer looks like a compensation. I've had one experience like that which I reported to bolt.
Make I no start this one. E don go and solved.
Much respect, baba.

SamuelTaiw0:
@glitronix how market na. Hope your car is not giving any issues abi you're already thinking of the future. I can see you're already scouting for HP. Much respect

Baba, na exclusive request oooh.
Special request for that matter.
Much respect, bossman.

Be like say what you people said about bolt ojoro on bonus is real.
Dem show me yesterday.
Fine, I had 11 trips + 90% acceptance rate + 85% completion rate to chop 2.6k yesterday. I for don complete this challenge in the dusk but I was disturbed by my people who needed my attention, phone calls, chats and messages. So, I was going offline and online intermittently and my focus was distorted. E come reach evening when I had bolt time;
Fast forward to the wayo wey dem wan knack me.
So, it was around like 10pm I had already done over 12 trips and completion rate done reach, e now remain acceptance rate - na so bolt started with me. My acceptance rate reamained 89%, when I know say just one trip accepted and completed, it's 2 points.
I did a trip from ojota to Maryland mende, completed ooh. The thing still remained 89%. Ahhh.
I drove to Maryland bus stop, When I see say night don dey come, I quickly drove to ogudu at Pharm City, cos I know na neighborhs dey go that side, sure for short trip within the area. I got a trip to gbagada.
The score remained 89%.
I come dey laugh say, nice one, bolt want cheat me. And time don dey go ooh. I now switched drove back to Maryland say I must chop this bonus sé. Na so I got an order from Radisson hotel at Ikeja Gra, thankfully, destination was Olatunji, Ojota. I rushed go pick the rider, I swear to God, after completion, the thing still remained 89%. WTF!
Ahhhh, bolt want do me wayo.
I wanted to give up and drive home say una don win, but when I thought about it, I was like, aahhh, are you people okay?
I come drive to ogudu road, got a trip from a hotel there, destination was off Mushin road, I dropped the rider and my bonus come enter. Omoh, it was a film yesterday night.
Bolt want wire my blokos wayo ni sha.
The good news of that experience was that I hit 24k gross from 19k when the show started.
I was really distracted yesterday, if not, bonus wey I dey chop before 6pm self.
What an experience.
Much respect, bosses.

Olayetan:
I dey the traffic like this for this odd hour
12:28am.
Regret coming to this side.

Chai!
It could be very annoying and frustrating.
Lagos is becoming a stressor on people's peace.
Lagos government self is making things harder.
They will be doing road and abandon it half way, causing traffic, and they will jump to another road and start reconstruction while they are yet to finish the one they already started.
Na this thing dey increase traffic in this state and na we dey suffer am.
I left Olowora around 10:30 in the evening with annoyance when my dashboard was showing me 21k, and that's below my target. I on my app and rugged am till I hit 25k gross before I went offline and go house.
Had it been this traffic wahala no dey ni, how can person be grossing just 25k on a Friday?
Very annoying state.
Much respect, baba.
