Hmmmm. No wonder when I pick riders they always get another impression of ehailing by seeing me and a lot say it with their mouths. Apart from d car the carriage and self worth. U then find out it's the riders that actually want to engage you in convos

One told me one time a driver tried speaking with her on a trip but the smell of the car( she sensed he sleeps in car) and his mouth breath put out her off. She was telling me another driver this.

Mehn dey fall hand honestly. Same last week on a PU trip at Neca house one run down Toyota avensis was at the access point like me. Na so baba just start dey reverse jam into my RAV4 wey I JUST lunch ooo. Crack small d follow come front bumper I dey manage. Wen he came down on sighting him I knew his ehailing driver. Dirty jeans unkempt beard black drappy dirty shirt. . I just para small free am. Tell am to relax as I'm a fellow driver like em. E no beleive am.

Bro u have to maintain ur self worth else riders will demoralize u. Every rider sud enter ur car and feel like dey just enter Sheraton reception for business not some slum cause it will greatly affect how dey treat u.

I have been complaining that my car consumes more fuel because I use 15k fuel to net 45 to 50k before now.

But right now, I use 15 to 18k fuel to net just 35k.

The problem we have in this business right now are those drivers that use smaller engine cars. Those Suzuki, Yaris, etc.

I was at Yaba and was surprised the ridiculous prices drivers were accepting. So I decided to put out a request to see if someone would accept.

To my surprise, a driver was willing to drive from Montgomery road to Maryland mall for 2800. Now that Indrive commission has gone up, what that means is that he's willing to earn 2400 for such trip.

Some drivers are just impossible. Unfortunately, we don't have control over who accepts what. You either join them in accepting the ridiculous prices or change hustle... That's the reality.

Insisting on getting a ride with a good price will mean staying at a place for too long which will cause you more back pain and tiredness, plus the heat under the sun.

I've noticed that staying in the car for long without driving is even more painful than driving around.

I get joy rejecting those kinds of rides. I can sometimes stay 1 hour in my car till I get a good ride, but I don't mind. Some will keep sending the same offer, and I keep rejecting.

Hmm...it's true sha. I carried one girl around ikeja yesterday...when I was dropping her off, she said, is it Uber I ordered or InDrive, I said InDrive...She said, hmm it's been long she entered a neat InDrive car. Me that my bumper now has a few dents here and then, I was now wondering how bad the cars she has been entering were.

You can imagine. I use this app for my family and honestly I dont use indrive but bolt comfort or Uber cause of my kids.

But if na me I dey order indrive and d cars and drivers wey dey ALWAYS come carry me no dey disappoint atal. U go truly know say both riders and a lot of drivers are going tru alot.

One driver that me stood out. Apart from his jalopy and unkempt Corolla he was an extremely hairy dude that wore shorts .

Asin the shorts were so short but that's not even my issue dude was hairy as a cat. I mean laps and arms and yet he wore shorts. . With unkempt hair. So unkempt bro I shock but na short trip. I couldn't imagine my daughter in same ride with him

Has anyone ever dated their rider here, I mean proper relationship and not HK?

Jegheter:
Exactly. One has to be very strategic this period and one strategy is waiting PATIENTLY for good trips. Just waiting. The wait is worth it. Worth your mental health that's for sure

DEGREE2466:
A friend of mine wanted to do this with a Unilag student. I advised him against it but he disregarded my advice and went ahead to try to get into a relationship with the girl.

What this girl did was to use him to be getting free foods and free rides. Only calls him when she's hungry and stranded.

Until my guy got fed up with her antics and moved on with his life.

Why I always advise against engaging riders in any form of relationship is because it will take a lot of maturity for them to see you beyond "their Bolt driver".

I will rather use the same energy to go after a girl I met on a different occasion.

DEGREE2466:
Waiting for too long may not worth it. You go home with less amount feeling exhausted as same time you worked very well.

Remember, this job works with timing. A person that went out for two days and earned 30k each is better than someone that went out in a single day and earned 50k without working the next day. Time lost can never be regained.

I don't work beyond 7pm, so I try to maximise my day time. Except for people that don't mind working until they meet their target even if it means closing by 10 to 11pm.
