Sharp guy na so.

One stupid guy requested for me at GIGM jibowu. He said i would take him to lekki and back to yaba.
After the trip, fare read 6,900.

This guy tried doing some sakamanje transfer and said network is bad, once network comes he ll do it. I allowed him go. (Me wey know wetin i dey do )

Just after an hour later, I noticed this guy had stopped picking my calls and blocked me and he was reading /ignoring my whatsapp chats.

Got all his life details on linkedin/truecaller. Even his fb profile. Then I screengrabed and sent to him the second day. This dude credited me after 5mins. Sometimes u need to show them craze.



After that

Lol! Nah soh, just use true caller, check whatapp and confirm Facebook sharp sharp, the rest nah small tin, you go get your money, e fit just take time. Yesterday a lady made transfer of 1700 and she didn't even bother to show me anything, I just notice someone alighting and I'm like have you done the transfer? she said yes. I didn't even argue with her since its a compound, I just jejely park outside with 15mins grace to get alert... Lo & behold alert dropped soh quick

One thing I have learn in this business is try not to give in to intimidation, if a car is at ur back, check if its civilian first, then he can wait forever, uber/taxify drivers r gradually becoming tout , let dem manage us like that (They we b driving and pressing phone baba). All cases should b settled to your satisfaction, advantage or breaking point before giving up.

Last week, I had an app error from yaba to cmd road, told rider about it from ogudu side and she was asking what will happen... Got to her destination and she offer 1k, I smile and ask is it because I didn't pull over on 3mb the moment i noticed, I guess that will b rude abi? She asked, how much do I want now? Me; 2k/2.5k at least. We argued for 10 mins and admit to go with app estimation... D stupid tin display 1400 - 1600, dat was how she paid 1600.

slamstanlee:
Are requests back to normal? someone pls confirm....
yesterday i did 5 back to back, awaiting trips on uber... just like a weekend. today i have done 3.

Yesterday I worked like jacko, made 17k, but mostly on card... I don't understand today, only 2 short trips since, I've been inside unilag for 2:30 mins, accepted a trip inbtw going to island, but rider cancel due to bad network communication glitch.


I need watch today's match

Gentlelife50:
Not possible

Its ok thanks

Can someone reply text on taxify to riders, like uber?

Gentlelife50:
Some people are just mean and inconsiderate, picked this woman, her kid and neighbors kid from mafoluku to Yaba.
She didn't want us to pass the normal route she kept directing through the worse of roads. Sometimes we will meet traffic she will tell me to reverse and change route, dropped the kids at jibowu and her final destination Abeokuta street Yaba.
Immediately we enter the street the woman said I should end trip, I did. She now told me she's going down the street that I should let her follow me to the office which I did.
We got there she got down and said I should send my account details to her since I have her number, I let her go because cars were behind me and nowhere to park there.
Besides I didn't bother since it's an Uber trip, I sent my account details later. This woman sent a message telling me she sent message to Uber that the price is much that she will soon forward the reply to me, I regretted letting this woman go.
She just used sense for me, only for me to check that trip and saw 000 naira I quickly mailed Uber they started saying their normal when a rider question a trip they always review it.
They said I took the wrong route or that the woman said it was a GPS issue, I sent my own mail regarding the said trip they said they have added miscellaneous whatever to my next week payout.
Up till now I can't see the reflection of any refund and the trip didn't even count as regards the 15 trip stuff, I called this woman several times she didn't pick.
I later called her with several different number she picked and when she learnt it's me said sorry that she told Uber she's paying #1200.

This is a journey that took over an hour, I told her plainly that she simply doesn't want to pay. That if she multiply #10/m she have roughly #700, does it mean she want to pay #500 from Ikeja to Yaba with stop at jibowu. Even if Uber want to do something they will only give her bonus as balance and won't tell her not to pay the fare displayed on the app, I was already at her mercy and simply told her to pay whatever she want to pay. She transferred #1700, that's why some drivers rather do saka.
I even blame Uber for reviewing a trip they knew nothing about without asking the driver first and believing a one side story.
I told them my mind sha, that drivers are not slaves. They should learn to hear from drivers first before reviewing any trip.

Boss next time, study rider and clear well, you know the draft, I can only let someone go if I'm clear about coming back to pull trouble of a better leverage

shollywendy1:
That road no be here.. but i felt for u too ooo. After the bad road waka, u come still miss d bonus. Chai!

This morning bonus for sweet to chop

Epphy:
Taxify is so useless with their stupid bonus conditions

Gentlelife50:

Riders with fake life sha!.
Got to a pick up point around ologolo inside . After driving in through the dirty flooded street and was asked to drive in to the compound. Tbought it was even airport trip. I drove in.
Next thing rider showed up .
Rider: why is your tyres dirty like this? I cant enter this car like this oo oga
Me: the road to your house was flooded with dirty water thats why.
Rider: i can still manage to sit inside d car.
Me: i no talk again since u are ok with inside cleanliness.
Next thing i saw aboki brought water.
Aboki: oga say make i give u the bucket of water to wash your tyre in the compound before him come down again.
Me:wont the tyres be dirty again after driving through the same dirty flood out of his street? start my engine, put my car on reverse
Rider: do u think u can leave me here and just drive out. Drive out let me be watching then.
Cancel the trip here in my presence before i ask aboki to open d gate 4 u else....
Me: else what? Reason why i have to be sure im out of your premises before i cancel it because i dont trust u anymore. This request on my App got me covered. Reason why im in your compound. If i have cancelled it and still remain in ur compound. The way u were sounding on the phone b4 my arrival shows what i should expect from u on my arrrival.
The next thing i screenshot the request incase...
He later opened d gate then i cancelled immediately.
Stands to be corrected. If im wrong.

Wrong ke! That road is bad fah, just came out of there not long ago, would have turn back, but I was chasing bonus and at the end all to no avail

Gentlelife50:
I think experience still count in this job, got a request inside Lekki gardens yesterday. Called the rider then swiped arrived immediately. Got there after 15 minutes and met one driver there so the driver told me they need two cars we for them because they delayed before coming out.

Meanwhile I was discussing with the other driver I even asked him the route he wish to take he said anyone, I convinced him it's better we take ozumba that it is longer and lesser toll fee besides the Ikoyi sometimes takes more time.

They eventually came out and we stopped at ikota complex I came to him and ask him to check his fare he was surprised when I told him he can check the fare, he did and it was #1100 mine was already #1400.

We got to airport the guy told us to wait at the car park so he can use ATM, I ended mine it was #6400 while the other driver's own was #4900.

The man asked why it is so, I told him mine is bolt executive.

He paid and later gave us extra 1k each for the car park

Is urs bolt executive?

shollywendy1:

Epphy:
Bros pls drop this issue. We don't have to see things from various points and understand what people are saying. Let everyone run his race. Let us all be HAPPY.

I've get nothing on this issue. 2 things I don't like... Don't discourage others, if you don't understand dia struggle and the insults are just needless to say.

jesusson2020:
You see the problem with village elders is frustration, because dey cannot make it, no one else will make it most of them don't want to see you succeed, so they always find a way to discourage u, if u r able to resist them and go on ur own u will succeed, and the next thing they will look for juju to finish u. This useless men here have try to silence me, but meet a full resistance.

I'm not the source of ur frustration, I'm not Uber Ceo or Manager, I'm just a driver like you.

Meanwhile today is so dull, but tomorrow will cover up.

Gentlelife50, Xneg pls don't waste ur money on strippers, try remarry, so u have a better companion.

I'll always hope d best for you and hope u get my draft, honestly you have not done anything beyond the extra ordinary, all we are yawning for is a better regulatory system, what's so difficult in you seeing past disguise? You made 7k yesterday, pay owner 5k, what of fueling? Feeding? Thank God you are under 3%, imagine if it is under 25% shit would have been crazy... Now you have to go to your previous 3k to balance some certain factor yesterday... Its part of business I understand, but this front & back tug of war have eventuality involved in it.

For those saying quite, it obviously won't last forever.

dru23:
Well it is always good to diversified your business.. Slowly and carefully I will increase my fleet .. I will continue to do uber until It no longer makes business sense .. Till than I will keep pushing

Glad u know it will get to a point it no longer make sense... Only God knows what the 3k gang will do, please easy give someone heart attack

A future pastor using abusive words?

The tin tire me...

jesusson2020:
Here you just thinking stupid, the laborer work does it come every day? Why not quit Uber and go do bricklayer.

And also 3k you're paid is in some site, from there you will pay transport and eat.

But with Uber I dont enter danfo. I drive luxury car with Ac, still eat fufu with egusi with 2 meat, after all this I still have 3k.
I have drink Fanta and bread and am tired of it, God will never take me back there, in Jesus name amen.

Yimu! Yawn... Any driver wey enter covenant university traffic today, come enter festac own go understand d yawn

jesusson2020:
this job is not executive job, is not job that we suppose to see graduate doing, but our economy situation is bad, many site engineers, (pope191, Xneg) 300million naira oil And gas sector are relegated to.

So for people like me going home with minimum of 3k every day is enough, afterall my boss go home with 5k every day and when repair come, I call him to bring back that 5k.

If the job gives you mental quit so u won't fall into depression like formal ABA business man Gentlelife50.

Oga if you think everybody is insane, then...

What have graduate got to do with dis? You will leave points and start beating around the bush, so many questions I ask you, but you cant answer and I let dis matter slide, if 3k is OK for you or your presumed it should be OK for drivers on rental, continue! Like one of my boss rightful said, you should have continue with you pon pon job since you have gotten to your destination or buy more pon pon for rentals.

chucsmoore:
Mumu drivers wey no get sense. I will send U d info shortly and other interested parties. Got ur emails. Fat Earnings is surest way to keep soaring higher in this business and we are unstoppable.

My oga please nah... No let me go back to village as I enter Lagos popejude191@yahoo.com

jesusson2020:
I posted it 2days ago, the thing they affect you?

This is for the new week, may God continue to bless us.

Thumbs up... Yesterday carry water, meself feel em nah only 10k I gross, dough I do some kind of 3hrs afternoon runz

Nah only God know when u finish ur last trip and how many hours spent online yesterday... It is well, hope u no carry partner car enter flood on Monday sha?

BAZ001:
Pls is it possible when u are posting earnings 2also tell pple dt u do 20hrs and drive everyday, dt ur tooth brush, soap & clothes are in ur booth?
Dt was how I was misinformed dt u can net 350k easily every month if I drive myself and less if i give it on rentals/hp.
Unfortunately 4me I joined when fahrenz was saying 15k net everyday and posting. I believed d others were actually lazy.
So for my mind we die here if I don't see 15k on my dashboard no sleeping or resting, if na akute, ikorodu or festac/alakija let's go anywhere in Lagos. After 2months I compare dashboard to my pocket I tot one spirit dey steal my money. I do another month again b4 I understand what d lazy drivers talking about.

This is 4 anyone about 2 join, except u want to be sleeping in cars & wreck partners car. If it's ur car better.

But u r lazy fah!

anikum:
This Uber drive biz us not it at all..
After driving for abt 5hrs...earning a ridiculous fare amt of N5157... Its unimaginable...
I drove marina to iganmu in some hold-up...and charged N502.. And many of sort..
Dis is not fair nah.
Upon all..enter lastma trap again..charged me 5k if i dnt want to go to deir office.
..plz house i xrive on Uber..maybe i shud port to bolt.. Is d price ok on bolt.
Im angry as i dey so..

Ah b say I no go comment, just stay invisible reading comment, but this can I port to bolt caught me... Bros when u r done with bolt, only d gods know where u go port to, but contact jesusson, he's mission is to help newbies.

Oga Dru abeg which ATF is best for Honda Civic 05?

Tyche:
No matter the kind of work you do, moreso driving like 12 hours daily, you need to take a break, re-evaluate and re-strategise.

Most people equate break with just sleeping and doing nothing, but that is not true. You always need to stay away from your daily hustle once in a while to see things objectively. Those who don't do this will fail to see what's coming.

Most importantly, put family first and always find time with them, no one goes to the grave with money. Myself was an apostle of working 24/7 till 2017 when I spent about 2 weeks at the hospital with a close family member that passed on.

The experience made me re-evaluate a lot of things. I stay off work for 21 days straight in a year and better for it too

May d hunch of wisdom keep flowing towards you boss. Some things ppl don't understand is spending time alone, the brain function more where there is calmness ... We just need that space to put things together

A car owner who has never driven before has no Ehailing experience IMHO.
