Dailyparrot:
A rider booked me at Ladipo Market side. I called him and told him that it would take me 9 minutes to get to his location. He said, there's no problem, that he's ready waiting for me.

The time I called him was 7:32pm. I drove all the way from Isolo road close to Mushin market to Ladipo and called the animal only for him to tell me that he has only 1500 with him.

That he has already booked Indriver and the driver accepted to go for 1500, whereas Bolt is telling him 2k plus. This man is going to Allen Avenue, Ikeja, from Ladipo, Mushin, at night and someone accepted to embark on such journey with 1500 as heavily trafficked as Ikeja can be at night.

I erroneously called him again by 7:45pm when I wanted to call my next rider that I'm at the pickup location and the nigga was still asking if it's the Bolt driver or Indriver driver. Meaning that the Indriver guy hasn't arrived 13 minutes after.

Only God knows how long he has to drive to go pick a man from Mushin to Ikeja by that time of the day at 1500 naira.

And, you want to tell me that Indriver is not for drivers without option?
Calm down let me address this issue. I stopped to have pity for drivers when they talk about low pricing. If there's one thing I have learnt about the app is, mind your business. The app or riders are not the problem, but we the drivers. Sh*t like this will keep popping on Indriver until drivers learn to have a standard. Island boys that doesn't drive on mainland, see offline airport trip to mainland and decide to do 1k trip back to island to cover fuel. The I have close I am just going home gang. The I have to remit money today gang. The I just want to use it to change position gang. Those are the ones making it look this way. If a rider put a bad price, what happen to ignoring or let them use alternative? They are some riders on Indriver I have never carried like this Pemilerin around Berger, she's infamous for her price and one driver will always take it, so be it.

Yesterday I was at Surulere, looking for 2500 towards destination to call it a day. I was seeing 2k, before jack, it is gone. You honestly can't tell people how to operate, it is their business. I waited for a while, but got what I want eventually. That is how Indriver operates. I have said it without time, anyone on Indriver should have a target, if you can meet yours, why bother?

Notice to all drivers.

This is not the time to take trip to the following area:

Magodo shangisha and it's environs like Olowora, unilag estate etc, Opic estate, mowe, redeem, River valley estate from magodo axis.

The reason is this, the construction work going on along the Berger to Toll gate /7up bus stop is causing serious traffic in that axis.

I'd a funny experience last week after dropping a rider on indriver at Berger bus stop I got another going to somewhere around shrine for 1.950 same time I also got another trip request to Grammer school inside on Bolt. The indriver guy called in and I asked him to wait me at Hmm... What the name of that filling station b4 the pedestrian bridge again self... I was still on call with the guy when the bolt rider called in so since I'd concluded with the guy I accepted the incoming call.

A lady was calling, she requested for her mother who I supposed was going for omugwo... She begged me to pls pick her up because she has been trying for long.

Same thing the young man also said too so now im confused on whom to pickup because the age woman can't even make a request. Maybe the young man can wait and I've already arrived on indriver and have left the position since I was already driving to PU pope191 and Readadream alas others can relate right?

Okay I told the both of them to wait me at the same place. You won't believe it that it took me 46minute to get to that filling station that night how I knew was because I arrived on bolt because I was hoping on cancelling b4 the lady called.

Haa! Me I carried all of them o (4riders) the age woman, the young man with his 2 young sisters. Dropped the mama first then went to drop the young champs na so I take close work.

And how this could lead to a heated argument that would derail the thread.

This kinda info is informative and educative, unless you try to pretend like an ignoramus (which I know you are not) who doesn't know the difference between this and and the previous posts of yours that could cause a fuse for the next 30 pages.

If you have any informative news or discussion that could benefit people here, we are always open to welcome that kinda discussion.

I don’t pray to ever do Uber work again in my life, the amount of money you make sitting behind the computer in office in 1week an Uber driver car make it in 3months.
Look around the most wealthy or top richesest companies in the world are Technologies coy not oil $ gas or manufacturers.
You will always see Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple on the list.
It’s because there are no options in Nigeria that’s why graduate will be driving Uber upandan... claiming I work hard now to play later, I need only 7 hours sleep a day...
High paying Jobs full here like rice & dodo. Just do little certification with your Nigerian degree you set.

I really appreciate...to be frank am not a woman beater I've never hit a woman. This woman may be older than me with 15 years .......what triggered me was that she started destroying my car door handles
15 years... meaning she's an eldrely person. You shouldn't have gotten physical with her in anyway. All you should have been bothered about is her fixing whatever she damaged. Hold her responsible for them and let the law take it cause

Thurmieee:
I had a physical confrontation with a rider......I had to defend myself she was also destroying my car.
She bit me and I bit her back
Boss I'll like to be straight with you, so I'll beg you pardon my gesture from get go.

1. You should be able to meet target with Indriver, at least till you sought youself. Any driver should be able to do 80 to 90k weekly. I have only work for 2 days this week. I did 19500 on Tuesday and 17200 today. On Sunday I did 25k, so I see no reason why you should say you can't meet up.

2. We are all human, once in a while we loose it, but I believe principles should be our guide. We should know our limit and think thro our to handle issue's before hand. Sorry I feel this is not your first time of hitting a woman, to make it comfortable to see it as if you are retaliating. A woman will always be a woman, one of the best way to make them feel like a fool is to ignore them. One really stress me out tonight and I was really laughing out and singing just to surpress my anger. She was almost yelling at some point and threatened to alight due to traffic. Where is she going too? Surulere to Ikeja and on the map it is 40 mins. This same lady took time to come out, only to be telling me to perform James bond. Told her 40 mins to Ikeja around 5 is not bad. A min traffic, she will threaten to drop, told her she's free, but she should at least settle me. So, learn to know you limit around them, they can make and at the same time destroy you.

Worst if you are on the right side, create scene and let people be the judge. She will obviously have no option and if they tell you to ignore her, just let it slide.

You know that feeling when you'll wake up and you don't just feel like going out, I can't remember the last time I felt it.

I now wake up feeling very energized and ready to go about my daily business

Another thing is, though I have to say I'm not sure if they are related, but I was always falling sick when I drove. There's hardly anytime I went through two to three months without falling sick. Since I stopped, I haven't fallen sick nor felt sick since January.

I have to say that I miss the money sha grin but I'm never going back to it.
December is coming... it is normal to fall sick once stress is optimum.

No mercy for rider oh, it's my call not theirs to make, my duty is to get you to your destination safety and as fast as possible. That's what the app is meant for and how Gmap works, good for the customer as well so why would anyone wants me to spend the entire day on a single trip.

I'm out to make money not to look at faces
We go cut your dada Las Las. .. when I say I don't use map to drive means, there's no route I barely don't know. Once I check route, then I am good to go. Regardless, they are route we ask me to take and I won't follow. E.g Surulere to Yaba... normally map will as you to go thro empire rd, I'll rather use Fadeyi, cut into that Oando street to oweh and enter Yaba tech.

Most time I don't even use freedom way, I'll use that Zenith bank road, hit Bisi Durosimi, then Niyi Okunibi to connect link bridge and other more route.

S[b]o you follow those who took Pope's advice of no need of using Gmap? [/b]

The day I made up my mind to always stick with Gmap was when I was caught in 7up/tollgate bus stop traffic around 1am... Who would have thought of meeting traffic at that time? I finally had to use Kudirat Abiola way to drop my rider at Berger bus stop b4 heading home.

You can succeed driving in Lagos without the help of Gmap.

I can't count the Nos of rider I've sent outta of my car for declining the use of Gmap, I just pull over in a safe place then ask them to step out.

Some riders know they'll be bored when they get to where they're going so they want to waste some precious time enjoying the comfort in the car untop small money

I don't even have any morale to continue working.

I was perceiving a burning smell when we got to the Airport tollgate, I turned off the AC and rolled down the glass, managed it to MM2.

Immediately after drop off, I went to Airport staff quarters to check the cause of the smell. The moment opened the bonnet to check, securities from the Staff quarters appeared from nowhere with clamps. Argh!

Those guys didn't listen to any explanation, they drove the car inside their premises. That's when we began to bargain. From 20k they billed me, I went to 3k. Las las they took 5k before releasing the car.
