Currently in Edo state, I took my corolla instead of the camry, worst decision made, the corolla really messed me up on the way, it started jerking off seriously, I thought it was the plug, so I took it to a road side mechanic village at ore to help me change the plugs, we put tokunbo plugs and started it but it was still jerking off seriously, the coils are good, so they checked the nozzle and realized one nozzle isn't working, no where to get the nozzle around, I just have to manage it down to Edo with the way it's jerking, Alhamdulilah, we arrived Edo safely, thinking of how to get back to Lagos rn with the condition of the car...

Help us greet Michael.

[quote author=Omoapena post=132397161][/quote]Ok boss… I be think say nah mushin you deh.

Omoapena:
You stay around berger?

Yes boss…

Pearl1910:
It's a different thing when a Rider puts a high price just to get a Driver fast fast, or when the App adjusts to high surge on Bolt and Uber.
That's d only time u get reasonable prices on Indrive.
Asides that, on a normal levels Indrive prices are crap.

They are all shitty, but I’ll admit you can make more money on Bolt with more drive time. Yesterday morning I saw trip to
ikeja on Bolt for 2900 from Berger and I’m like omo x 3. End up getting to Alausa for 3700 from same Berger on Indrive.

WareLogMan:
Actually you are right, bolt price without surge is not so cool but better than indrive.
Check picture below.

Total you will get on this trip is 4500. Who told you can’t pick 6500 on indrive? And get like 5800. I just feel drivers should learn to use bolt app and understand when a trip is worth it.

WareLogMan:
As at 10:30a.m with just 4trips completed
Bolt owes me accumulately 10k

Bought 15k fuel
Still has 2bar less than 8ltrs left
Let's see how it goes

Bolt has taken like 5k if I’m right. What’s the benefit left?

Barbiturate:
Then boycott the app and use bolt or uber......simple!

I wish all drivers can leave that app......walai, their brain go reset.

Got a trip from that yaba train station yesterday morning to lekki phase 1. Bolt showed 11k. They gave rider bonus of 1600. I checked on indrive and saw 6600.....which will still be reduced!

Nonsense app! They already told you guys they are fighting "injustice"

My last trip on bolt yesterday, 20 mins from Anthony village to kilo 7800, 800 bonus. The guy sef shock. It was 3200 on indrive

I outrightly don’t think indrive is the problem, but drivers. A day before yesterday, I saw price on Indrive switching high, because there was no driver to pick them. I was tempted to as Omoapena if he made same thing yesterday. Bolt price remain shitty without surge. It’s just a matter of time before we can have the real value of things. Bolt is leading right now, but I won’t put indrive down totally.

If only drivers can learn to ignore trips on indrive

Heheheheheee.
Na Tinubu the devil dey use deal with Nigeria as a whole.
This is not even the case of e-hailing alone; diesel price go jump up, gas go jump up, kerosene go jump up... Food stuff, drinks, auto parts, oil, everything go follow jump up as fuel price don increase. Public (danfo/bike/keke) transportation go increase in price.
Na only e-hailing una dey look at, what about the general effects the fuel price go have on all other parts?
Heheheheheee. We go hear am.

Much respect, bosses.

I feel bad when I see people complain about this economy, like an average Nigerian don’t learn. We all know they are going to increase the money. If this thing have not gotten close to the current price of dollar, then there’s no full deregulation. We have an irresponsible government, that doesn’t want to take any responsibility. Heap everything on her citizens, while they live large.

In a nutshell, one can’t plan his or herself in this economy. Japa is not anybody’s mate again. It’s not just about ehailing as people still earn 200/250k. I want to believe some people still earn 100k.. that’s what one can do within a week, provided one’s car doesn’t consume the better part of the money back. In my solitude, I realized, I’m gearing towards grossing 1m a month, but nothing is still happening. Almost 500k goes to gas. During Adamu’s time, I’m so ok with grossing between 400 to 500.

My point, atleast ehailing price still changes with the present harshness, how about folks that are yet to get any increment since all this bala blu? Even the 70k minimum wage is useless right now. I am not saying one should stick to this, but gear up… things are about to get interesting. Everybody will feel the heat.

This year has been a crazy one… feel like nah money for feeding person just deh see.

Pearl1910:
Lolz... Why will u click "Start Trip" when u haven't started the trip?. I don't even click "I am here" until Rider has entered d car and I want to start the trip.

The reason his money will not be returned is because of what he clicked when cancelling the trip.

Indrive will block you if you dont tap on the I’m here.

Pearl1910:
Mad o

Nah so boss. I don’t know why people just like being unrealistic.

Glithronix:
Na network glitch nah.
You think say the rider self go accept any driver wey pick the ride?

Much respect, baba.

I agree with you, but rider will accept. I don carry 2400 from Agege to Surulere not long ago. She asked if I saw the price? Told her sure, 24k. She immediately suggest to cancel. Madness should be match with equal madness 😂

Pearl1910:
Where Road safety catch u?

Turning back to ojota from Ibadan express way. One car go deh play slow for my front ni 😡

[color=royalblue]Aboki no go price am well

You for collect your naira abeg

Na from $20 make sense[/color]

The money was on a free hand. The rider put western union and I am around Kudirat abiola way. Tired to drive and looking for a trip back to Berger. So I took em to Access bank around that road and wait. Total driving time wasn’t up to 8 mins aside waiting for like 30 mins while I take a nice sleep after road safety don show me shege.

dapotemi:
O por leti...but this faded plate is something else o..My VIO contact categorically informed me that they gave instructions to FRSC, Police and VIO to start stopping vehicles with faded plate...He knew I have one so he called me to let me know...I got this info today and coming online to see this..shit is real then..i have gotten a contact from someone that will repaint for me, though it's illegal as I was told but I might give it a try...I was told he's been doing a decent job...I spoke to him and he ask for 5k...sample of the last one he did.

I don paint mine with aro, crayon and marker. Today just wasn’t my day. I have to just let it go, because they thing is affecting my work pattern. They will still arrest with the plate number you have here..

tojahh:
Fake!

Broda Adamu e da nu jhoor 😂

Where Dapo 😂 they don deh use dollars pay ooo

Incase una see rider and driver wey they fight nah me. Frsc just ticket me for faded plate number and make me do another one for 35k.

No zeal to drive again today, but too early to go home. That how I see one trip with confused rider going to somewhere and ask me to wait to take him back. He no gree talk price and me self they find person I’ll hang my problem on. Anytime e come out, em money nah 35k. I no won hear any story

Conner44:
That doesn't mean anything baba. 😕

What of me that people here always say 'i am this and that' just because of the way i call them out on bad stuffs that they did right here on this thread . . . As it's just them grasping at straws I only laugh it off and press on. Life is not hard indeed.

But see, pointing and yelling orphan - orphan isn't the way to bounce bullets here . . . It makes you seem less human when you mock others with our frail mortality. Even you or me can die in our sleep today and it will be the natural way of this world (let's forget about our old parents for now)

See Gazzuzz (may his soul rest in peace), who ever dreamt he wouldn't be here with us again today? This is life bro. Stop making a mockery of all our individual mortality just because someone yabs you concerning tinubu.

This world is physical yes, but we all have spirituality as our individual guides. Don't use your words to draw a huge setback for you and yours just because of one person who had naturally lost his/her own parents to the earth.

That is all I want you to ponder on this wonderful Sunday evening.

Boss please you can pass your message without citing him. This wound is still fresh, allow people to heal please.

dapotemi:
Lol

Make we just run topspin 😂

Barbiturate:
This job is just too demeaning! Bn waiting for this small boy for over 20 mins. He came out, asked me to open boot, then put his things and said I should give him another 5/10 mins that he's waiting for somebody. I just tried to tell him that I've been waiting for over 20 mins, Omo this boy said I should open boot, that he wants to cancel. I just weak!

Some jobs are like that, you just have to define yourself at some point in time. Next time don’t wait for the boy to ask for such, do em that favor by cancelling the moment he came out and start acting rude.

Same way someone will call customer care service and start placing curse on them or enter bank and start shouting at the teller folks. You meet different people everyday, obviously everyone is not normal.

Omoapena:
Any driver that does this is a fool, why will you claim someone is a close associate when you randomly rendering service to the person all because of money...

I've done many offline where police will stop me and they will ask me themselves if I'm Uber cox sometimes, I dress like this guys too and I will just say yes it's Uber.

But, this my guy case, I was surprised too that they detained him when he told them he's just an Uber driver, but reason why he was detained was because they found gun on the guys and 2 of them ran away...

I naturally don’t like using police route, those guys are not professional to me. Tho they hardly disturb drivers, except in few cases and are hardly in same page with each other. Twice they caught guys and I have to follow them to the station. As what? They said witness. Omo! My time, my fuel, I felt that. Driving is spiritual, I don’t need anyone to ruin my day.

Omoapena:
Bros, I don't want to know the kind of car he's driving, even if it's 1.6l engine, there's no way to get 80k with 20k fuel.

Pearl is probably exaggerating or he's just intentionally feeding us lies.



Bros, abeg, check price from Maryland bus stop to ajah under bridge on bolt app, look at the price and check how many litres you will use to cover that distance to get that price.


I just did here and Bolt charged 14200 from Maryland to ajah under bridge, and let's say you're using 5litre(not possible tho) to cover such distance.

If you divide 5litre from 22litre, you will get 4.4, which means you will do that Maryland to ajah 4.4 times.

So, multiply 14200 by 4.4times, you will get 62,576 and we can agree it's not possible to use 5litres of fuel from Maryland to ajah. Maybe if there's heavy surge, you can achieve 80k with 20k fuel but without surge, you can't achieve that.


I'm putting this into calculations cox I know it's not possible, but if pearl wants to prove me wrong, he should screenshot the whole trips details he did to get 80k with 20k fuel and I will do my calculations here and prove him wrong......


Screenshot below shows; 1st image, Maryland to ajah
2nd image ajah to Maryland...

I feel you boss, but I no just like to argue some argument because I no deh there. All man should just do what works for them.

I won’t like to doubt Pearl on the 20k fuel of a thing, because it is not my car. The only thing I’ll be curious about is does 13k fuel gross 70k before the increment. Because what we buy at 13k is what 20k can get today.

Note: Bolt increased their price, but seem reversed when una too get sense. Seems like drivers prefer app with small price.

Pearl1910:
Some people are now saying it's better they drive than take uber cos it's getting too expensive.
Some others are running to indrive for cheap rides and others are actually taking yellow cabs or public transportation.
Many people now treck from inside estate to d gate to enter keke or korokpe.
Others only go out when it is extremely necessary, all those careless long distance waka don reduce.
U should chat more with ur riders next time u carry them. These questions shouldn't be for me.

People thinking so are ignorant… I’ve heard lot of that till car maintenance set in. Remember some people buy cars out of ignorance and not likely the regularly Uber thing. When Kazeem show them shege, they look for alternatives. Some has even join the share ride of a thing, but there’s a way we human are built. There’s a reason increase in income still can’t overshadow expenditure. Unless the money is not just there.

About trips, we need to admit people are baffled with where the country is going, reason the town looks like ghost. Do you know all this down sizing Olosho price is still on the high side? How many beach trips do we get on weekends? Fine restaurants trips? Company events like the GTCO stuffs and Eco hotel events? All these things will happen when it will and drivers will have their day regardless of price. Preparation should just try and meet opportunities, then everyone will smile again.
