One girl cancelled on me again yesternight after I had gotten to PU. I was really mad and had to send bolt a message.

Their response was that, they are working on bringing in cancellation fee and that they'll notify us once its up and running.

I sincerely hope this is true. I don't even need them to pay me the cancellation fee, let them just charge the riders so this nonsense can stop.

Make them no just try am...people ran away from uber cos of cancellation fee.

You don find me go Agric section
Actually, I am fortunate to have a father who has been practising subsistence farming for half of his life, so farmland wasn't a problem. He oversee the cultivation, harvest & send the proceeds to me while i visit once every two weeks to inspect my investment.
Lagos to ijebu is less than 50mins, if you leave very early in the morning or late at night(Don't take this advise unless you have 9lives ).

I don't know what you intend to farm but Plantain farming is less stressful to other crops, as long as the soil is fertile, plant healthy suckers & feed them water in dry season (December- February). It is money spinning if you harvest them between March -August. (If you plant in March within 9-11months, they should be ripe for harvest).
Plantain is usually scarce around that time in the market hence the price skyrocket.
Also note, that it is not always rosy. A wind catastrophe can send a plantain Farmer to an hospital bed in 1hour. That's the huge risk associated with growing plantain.
I grow chilly pepper too. These two crops if planted & harvested in right season can enhance your pocket but dem get their own headache too

Nice one! Plantain farming can be very castrophic during wind... But with good technic and experience you'll scale through. What I did in my plate in farm at a time was plant cassava inbtw (intercropping) this will help to reduce wind falling the plaintain and at the same time increase your income.

Since I'm a young man with little pocket I couldn't continue because the lengthy period. Mind you, either plantain or cassava you gain more in your second season, So I decided to shift pole to watermelon (90days) and cucumbers (40-45). These two veges are gold mile if one has the resource with standard practice. My major setback was when cattle entered my farm... If no be say I'm a man with a big heart I would have been dead... Investment of over 2.8m with a forecast profit of over 10million box went down the drain ober night.

Long story shall... Let's not derail the thread too much.

But if I have my money again off course I'm going back to the bush.

e b like d winter self don enter this our thread ooh...

By the way where is jpworld? Abi him still dey village?

As I'm typing now, I'm just at yard, thinking of exit plan

I was quite surprised when I saw a lot of naive folks here displaying dashboard earnings in December. That's about the only time of the year one can earn reasonably on this job. January/February is usually very dry even when the world was normal. After that, rain comes to disrupt the hustle in Lagos from April - September. So, one is basically left with only November and December to make a bit of an impact on uber.

I really do not think anyone should rely fully on this for steady income, an exit plan should always be in the offing. Helps more as a side hustle.

Besides, for every 20k made in this hustle, there's always a hefty price paid, makes it feel like its generally not worth it at all, quite often.

Make them no just try am...people ran away from uber cos of cancellation fee.

I guess its different strokes for different folks. Uber and short trips. I wonder how you guys who do uber squarely survive it. Uber knacked me 3trips back to back and none of it was above 1200naira despite setting destination to Ikeja from lekki, they claimed that rider was heading towards my destination...I weak!

I entered lekki with a ride on indriver for 5650k, rider gave me 6k. Got out with a ride of 3.5k.

A friend did a trip on uber, trip ended 200naira oyinbo give am 300naira

Indriver works fine for me.

I was lucky to be chevy view estate when surge was 1.9 , rider going to (cash and carry) at VI, when we reach rider ask me if I can wait that he is not staying too long.
Me : hope you are not staying too long
Rider: no, I just want to get stuff am not staying long
Me : no problem.
inside this dry season with surge on the trip
To cut the story short ride ended 5600 baba transfer 6k,

Hallelujah in everything boss, whatever pain u have today over this trip, just know that it won't b as bad as waking up to see the guy give you 3 star. I once picked a rider from grammar school to eko court complex 2650, spent almost 3 hrs in traffic, my face didn't leave d fuel gauge, as the tin was dropping, my eyes couldnt take it. Despite having a good chat with the man, he rate me 4 stars, ever since then I don't pick his trip again, I still deh vex for the man till today

Schools to resume on Monday 18th...

Me thank God my partner called for his car on Monday... The car has been very problematic... So me I'm not bordered for the now till probably February or early March because I hate telling stories. How you won take explain winter to partner?

January, Febuary and early March are months for land preparation. If you know you know. The only prayer be say make God provide money for the season.

IFSHR:


you response made me laugh so hard.

Anything 6 self I don dey set destination

My brother, na so o. Our priority should be staying alive especially for us car owners. I will understand if those on rental stay very late into the night.

However, they should always remember that, if anything happens to them and they die, the partner will get another driver before they bury them.
