Eizenburg:
He’s not driving 10kms in 6hours.

You can say that.

But I think he does that for his YouTube channel, not necessarily because he needs the job.

There was one of his videos I watched where he mentioned that it was his friends uber account

Uber guy raps for her and she started crying

Tyche:
Now that the shouting has died , can we move on?

What guerilla marketing approach can we adapt and change the narrative in this Uber, Ocar, Bolt trichotomy?

Of course, we can't outspend them, but we can leverage on the experiences here to create another David and Goliath scenario.

Are there vacuums to exploit or niches been neglected in this ehailing Royal rumble?

Do we look outside the box?

mistadayo:
Some riders you cannot satisfy them finish. Uber should allow us know who and who rated us and comments. How can I have cleaniness, level of service, conversation, driving and vehicle condition on my rating dashboard when nothing is wrong with the car. They expect you to be going to the car wash after every trip. Shior

So you can swear for them Abi?

Why is Malaysia yahoo boys headquarters? There must be something enabling about that environment that make scammers from all over the world go there to carry out their works.

I am now quite certain united fans will usher in the Antichrist I mean this guys can defend the devil n make him look like he is Christ himself...


If u see the way they hype their players, especially that lingard own... Oh my God, u will think he had been nominated for balloon door


So not surprised with the OGS is better than Poch, it's not the first nor will it be the last.

Elders in the house.. I think I am here at the right time.

I work in a bank, been there for over 3years as an outsourced staff. Salary has never been more than 65k.

I work Mondays to Fridays, leave home 5am get home 7-8pm as the case may be. Sometimes I do weekends(ATM monitoring).

As it stands, there is no assurance of salary review, staff conversion or promotion.

Now an uncle offered me a direct tokunbo 2005 corolla for 2.7m on HP to give him weekly return of 25k or monthly return of 100k till I offset this 2.7m.

Is it advisable to take this car and go into ehailing. Again if I take the car, knowing that I need to give monthly remittances, how do I meet up when the job does not afford me time. Can I meet this monthly target?

Or do I quit my job and go into ehailing full-time while pursuing professional certification or do I just stay on my job and hope things "might" change?

larride:
Suddenly Poch is a bang average manager that cant handle the pressure of a top job because he didn’t win a trophy at Spurs because Spurs were serial winners before him. LEEMAO.

No wonder OGS first job in a top league ended in relegation, they even had to sack him when he start flirting with relegation in the championship.

OGS and Poch should not even be mentioned in the same sentence. Them no be mate.

Everyone gets your view but always remember to each his own. Live and let live.

Tyche:
Let's discuss alternate models, more like blue ocean strategy, for running a transportation business. I am more than willing, to bankroll it, alone and/or with other guys here.

The model should be a win-win situation for all stakeholders.

Now you are seeing what you were missing from my points

cindybaby22:
What kind of a person are you?
Someone spending money to develop his/herself is wasting of resources?
Do you think it is every undergraduate that will end up working with their degree? I have rev. Father doing phd, another doing masters? There is never a limit to self development.
Your level of reasoning is myopic sorry to say

Felicity001:
So if you go for an interview let's say "customer care position" which is one among the most outsourced position in the USA right now and you have experience partnering with Uber for like 4yrs and which is verifiable even with comments from riders you think the white man won't give you the job

Black man mentality is so low. Listen, no experience we human encounter in life is a waste. Value ever opportunity that comes your way because it will build you for your tomorrow

kodred:
There’s nothing emotional about my posts. By all means, do whatever works for you. Your friend that’s dropping the hustle entered for the wrong reasons and so has to exit in no time.

If the thing fits your plan, then go ahead, if not move on. Don’t come and start saying bla bla bla. You are seeing driving as a side thing that eats up all your time and what not. I ask you what thing pays that doesn’t take time? You want to eat your cake and have it?

Uber/bolt pays one of the best hourly rate in the country. So tell me why can’t one take it as a full time hustle?

No employer will fault you for putting uber/bolt as an experience on your CV. They’ll only just overlook it if it’s not relevant to them. There are ways you’d construct the CV narrating the JD.

Point is if you already have the defeated mindset about anything, then you’ll hardly make headway.

ajoks533:
One can always decide when they start and when they close for the day.

I have an on going program I am running and driving on uber won't stop me from doing that.

With good time management one can plan ways to accommodate other activities which they feel will take them to where they are aiming at.

If you burn 10 kilocalories on job a and you get 30k
You burn 20 kilocalories on job b and you get 15k

Where do you think you should burn your kilocalories?

Everyday people shout be your own boss, don't work for anyone. This lady has stumbled on a hustle that will bring in money but she continues to chase career. Like i said, Las Las na civil service job. Even in lag, the flexibility na die.

ajoks533:
No one is being emotional Sir. However, I am only trying to drive home some points. Some take driving as side hustle while others take it as a full time business. It's just an individual thing.

No let's look at it this way, we are all striving to make ends meet through whatever legitimate way we can afford to make that happen. Hence, we venture into different trades, starting with the courses we were offered at the university, which might even not be the dream course we wanted to do, but for not wasting time at home, we decided to take on those courses and graduate with whatever results we got, landed a job we could with the result and got paid as much as we could get.

Now, if we decide tomorrow to seek for alternative/side hustle which can complement or supplement what we earn from our current job, do you feel it will be bad to quit the former job and go full-time into the one we see as side hustle?

Like I said, it's an individual thing. You have your dreams and aspirations, others have theirs. Mine might be that I want to become a great I.T professional known globally, the other person might just want to be known as a billionaire, also known globally. So I might see uber as a means to getting financial support to sponsor my professional courses in ICT, whereas someone else will be thinking on how to improve on the services uber offer and use that to develop his own platform.

The sister who is an accountant can have a breakthrough in the clothing line and decide to further her trade in that line of and quit her job if she sees a better prospect and income flow in that line of business, especially if she feels she also has this thing for fashion and designing.

Well, we are all here to learn and contribute. What do I know? (in the voice of radautoworks)

ornicus:
This right here. We don't have a maid at home.there was a period when I was under serious pressure juggling chores, job and side hustle.

You wash dishes, do laundry. It is a never ending cycle. You do a design for three hours, you get paid 350k. You do housework for three hours, you get nothing.

You quickly learn about directing energy into what actually brings in money.

Leyqute:
Look at this muppet. Comparing Madrid with prime CR7, Modrić, Kroos and Ramos with headless Rashford, unstable Fred, inconsistent Pogba and calamity Jones and Smallijg.

Stop thinking with your ass. Zidane’s efforts are not unnoticeable but having good players and a solid team help. Let Zidane take over this current Tottenham (or another team in transition) and see if he’ll win a spoon.

Luís Enrique has never won a trophy before. He came to Barca and won the league. And the Copa del Rey. And the champions league.

Stop thinking with your ass.hole.

Epphy:
The issue really is perceptions, opinions and decisions.

Perceptions - People read deeper meanings to Nitigriti's post. I did not read much into it until I saw counter-posts. He probably did not attempt to talk down people's hustle.

Opinions - we all have different opinions which every human being need to respect. One can't force people to accept what you believe. Just talk and people that you influence will see you have a point(s).

Decisions - some have decided to do the hustle and make it big through it. If that's their decision, I believe they have their reasons. I don't think anyone has a right to make them feel they are dump and their decision is stupid. People can decide to change their decisions based on situation changes.

NB: this is not directed at anyone in particular but based on my opinion and inference drawn.

On being defensive and emotional, we are humans. Such happens when people don't want to look at contrary opinions.

True talk bro

Some plan to make it through it, while for some, it's a phase

The whole issue escalated so fast sha

ornicus:
Guy, if my side hustle is out stripping my main hustle in terms of returns , what does that tell you?

Unless she has a very clear vision that when I get to point x, the money from accounting will start rolling in.

Maybe the accounting money will start rolling in someday

peeps4u:
And are there no many struggling young people who are yet to make it in the white collar jobs?
Are there many people who have also failed or earned peanuts with freelance writing?

"Identify your hustle and do it well, don't let anyone look down on your hustle" that is my message.

ornicus:
Then quit your job. I am not understanding ooo. On the one hand you are defending Uber as a source of income , but on the other hand you refuse to venture fully into the business that is putting food on your table?

Or am I missing something here?

You could have ignored that, you know

peeps4u:
On the side gist, Okay has learnt from Obus failure and has made a deal with NURTW.

peeps4u:
God bless this woman. Simple and precise. That you can't input a certain job in your CV doesn't make it useless. Besides, not even every job experience are applicable to a certain job.
There are jobs where uber experience can be included; logistics or transport company. Just tweak the uber experience along with the job requirement.

Besides, who cares about CV if you earn your money without CV?

God is good, young shall grow etc started from a stage like this. That a job is blue collapse job doesn't make it useless.

cindybaby22:
You are the one twisting the conversation
Does selling clothes stops you for enrolling in professional courses?
Do you think because i am selling clothes i have neglected enrolling for professional related certifications?
The last certification i did cost me 266k and the money came from my importation trade.
Or you think to enroll for professional certification is free? If not for my importation trade where would i have gotten the 266k?

Leyqute:
Dude. Forget all these your talk na okoto meow skrrr yarns

Poch Poch Poch. Do you know what coaching big teams like Utd and Liverpool entail?

Can you even imagine the pressure that is on you to win EVERY game? EVERY single game. And it doesn’t matter if you win games or not, you get criticized.

Mou was scraping by the other season, winning 3 points by the whiskers and he was heavily slated because the wins were not emphatic and the performance wasn’t top notch.

Poch ‘enjoyed’ the Tottenham job, there wasn’t a spotlight on him and he wasn’t expected to win every game.

He has been awful since last season yet no one is talking about it. Let United lose against Sheffield this weekend and see how every news column will be saying there is a disaster at the club.

Do you people even comprehend how big that Utd role is? Poch may succeed if he comes to Utd but it’s more likely he won’t be an instant success like you’ve been preaching. He could fall flat on his face and fail miserably because the pressure will be much.

So, stop all these okoto meow skrrr yarns.

cindybaby22:
The way you guys reason amaze me
Seems it is a war against uber drivers, that is the only thing i can deduce from your post.
I am an accountant, i import ladies designers & wears to sell at wholesale prices, do u think i included it in my CV? & Do u know what i make from it? So because it is not in my CV it is of no value? This is kinda funny tho lol

ajoks533:
Brotherly, I have few questions to ask you.
1. Does driving on uber or any other platform pay?
2. Is it a legitimate source of income?
3. Does the money gotten from driving equal or lower than the basic minimum wage in Nigeria?
4. Are people doing well from the income it generates?
5. Let me stop here

Plz do answer these questions, then I will tell you what I feel about this side hustle, despite say I never start up yet.
