Actually you re correct, I drove manual for more Dan a year and the simple trick is just managing every gear with neutral, by dat U reduce stress , on Auto the problem I have most times is the non driving leg, very very problematic

Haaaaa, today sermon long ooo


@Dru23 and Pope it is well ooo

Olayetan:
So today, being 1st Monday and 1st day of the month, I started work late, I was just resting due to the weekend stress cuz I’m always on the road through out the weekend.

I decided to set destination to ajah from mushin then when I get to island, I set destination back and close for the day.

While destination was on, a request came in from ladipo market to igbo efon, I was happy cuz I knew that would give me nothing less than 3k, on getting to PU, rider asked if I can deliver 2 Tyres to someone at igbo efon, in my mind, I said this is a big opportunity for me.
I asked the rider if we can run it offline and rider agreed without feeling reluctant, he asked for my price and due to fear of overcharging people, I asked for the highest estimates and he said 3400 then I demanded for 4K for the offline, He agreed without pricing.

He made a call to the receiver and told him my price, that moment, I just realized I could carry someone going to island along with the tyres, then I started waiting for request on inDriver going towards island, but I went back home while I was waiting for the request to come.

I had waited for about 10mins and didn’t see any request going towards island then I decided to set destination back to ajah on bolt.

Just few min after setting destination to ajah, a request came in on inDriver to agungi with an offer of 3k, I quickly accepted the offer before another driver did and the rider accepted mine too.
I was about calling the rider when another request came in on bolt going to island also but I couldn’t say where exactly on the island so I 1st called the bolt rider to ask where he/she is going and she said agungi, and inDriver rider was heading to agungi also, in my mind, I said I will run the 3 trips at once.

When I checked pickup location of the 2 riders, they were actually on same street but one at the beginning while the other at the end of the street, I was like see how God made this so easy for me.

I went to pick the inDriver rider 1st and explained to her, she agreed without feeling insecure, in my mind, I was like this is easy mehn,

The other rider was waiting for me at the filling station on the street, when I got to her, she opened the door and realized someone was sitting beside me at the front, she thought she entered the wrong car and wanted to go down but I stopped her and explained to her, she was feeling so insecure and wanted to drop but I convinced her and she agreed reluctantly to go with us but online.

In my mind, I was like who mind if it’s online or offline, so far you are going to pay me for the trip, then I’m making triple on a single trip.


Both the inDriver rider and bolt rider were actually going to like 2 estates away from each other but inDriver estate came 1st while the bolt rider estate is the next junction but I decided to drop bolt rider 1st since it was online, her trip ended on 2800, she made a complete transfer of 2800 and I went to drop the inDriver rider and she paid in full her 3k offer too.

Remember I still have 2tyres in the trunk to deliver, drove straight to Igbo efon from agungi, told receiver the traffic was really mad and I would have done the trip online cuz it would have read more due to the traffic but actually, there was no single traffic cuz I didn’t leave immediately, due to how I talked to him, rider paid me 5k instead of 4K we agreed.

That’s how I killed 3 birds with a stone and made 10800 on a single trip and I didn’t use up to 1500 fuel to cover the trip.

Sense no go kill U

CryptoClub2018:
Good morning guys. Please this would be a little long. I just want you all to thank God for saving me from bondage the devil planned for me today.
I started work 7am today and I got my first trip to Ejigbo. It was a smooth ride and as soon as I got to the destination, I got another trip from Ejigbo. I was to pick up the rider in about 15 minuets and I called the rider to inform her that I am on my way and she said she is waiting. I got there and called her that I am outside only for her to tell me that another driver picked her. I was really mad at her but guess what? We move. Not up to 5 minutes, I got another trip going to AIT road and I picked up the rider and the journey began.
Now this is where the devil started his work while on that journey

About 20 minutes into the journey while I was approaching Ekoro road, I police officer was riding a bike and her was in front of me, as I was about to overtake him, without no one touching him, himself and the bike fell down right beside me. I thank God it wasn't when he was in front of me that he fell, if not I would have crushed him right there. I just continued my journey since I didn't touch him and that was it. Again, on getting to Ekoro road, I was making a U-turn to face Meran. I just finished making the U-turn and from no where, I bike was coming with full speed and it was again by chance that he wasn't crushed, in fact people were already putting hands on the head but again, I thank God for escaping that again so I continued the journey.
Finally, I got to my destination and I ended the trip and the rider paid me. As I left and hoping the get another trip, something happened again for the 3rd time which could have been the worst issue in my life and would put me in a big mess for a long time.
I was just going gently and for me the road was clear and I didn't see anyone in front of me only for me to hear people shouting very loud at the top of there voice. I just stopped immediately and was wondering what the problem could be. Behold, a child of probably 2 years old was right in front of me and my tyre was about to climb her head. The tyre has already touched her head and it's just to climb it that remains. When they brought her out, there was already blood in her mouth but I thank God is wasn't that bad. I was shaking
People rushed out to find out what happened including my previous rider and everyone was just thanking God both for me and the child. My rider just told me to go home and pray that I am under an attack and that how could such near miss occur 3 times on a row. I just put off my app and proceeded to my house.
I am at home as I speak and I will be praying and making consultations.

I am sharing this because we all need to be very prayerful at this job and in our life in general. If any of the 3 near miss have turned out to be fatal, what condition would I have been right now?

Please help me thank God for saving from from distress and bondage.
May we never find our self in a problem that would render our lives useless in Jesus name.

Menhhh ,don't stop worshipping what you re worshipping ooo.

This one na original planned work but You escaped all.... Hallelujah to thy Lord

Watin dey really do some drivers?
So he actually felt the woman is meant to pay CBD for towing his car den decided to defame her
Thank God say I no call sef

Even at dis don't rush into conclusion, it might be a tactics from d woman too.


Dat Apology is not stamped, just a written piece .


For now be neutral until U hear both sides of d story

kanuisagoat:
The way bolt matches drivers to riders is one mystery in this ehailing work I'm yet to unravel.

I have an activity score of 98% and rating of 4.90. My rating has not dropped below 4.80 in a very long time. Yet, when I'm at a location with more than one driver and a request comes in, it almost never comes to me.

I'm starting to think its probably a first thing first out thing. Since I hardly stay long enough at one place, its difficult for me to confirm this.

Well, let me share my experience with U, wen I was actively driving and I enter a crowded Ehailiing Driver zone (e.g Chevron drive, Osapa london e.tc) I switch on my 4G modern and not my normal MTN or Airtel Sub and and crash all other apps only Bolt or Uber will be active apps, and I can tell U even if I shud meet 50 drivers dere I must leave dere b4 d 3rd driver will get request.

Have you wondered Y several peeps calls a line during a radio program and some peeps are constant with dere calls?? Reason is network and the technicalities involved.

So just know dere are other factors asides proximity and ratings.

eyinola:
well u may be right , but on my personal experience i hv been with a rider in my car countless of times only for them to re request me and get another driver even wen i set my destination to riders exact location

D algorithm for destination set is different

Felicity0001:
I totally disagree with you guys on this.

Bolt algorithms on request is meant to pick the closet driver the rider making a request for a ride. If all condition remains constant the request has no business sidelining the driver beside the driver and then picking a driver that's 5min away. 5min away on the Bolt App can be up to 3-5km on the driver's end on a free road oooh because most time 1m on the rider's app means below 1km on the driver's end(on GMAP) unless there's traffic it can say 5min because the Bolt App doesn't tell the rider how distance the driver is to them apart from the time.

It could be that the driver was having either a network issue at the time a merger was taking place btw the rider closest to you at that time or probably you where trying to go online while the request was being made. (I believe thats what you meant by FIFO)

This is only possible in the uber app and even with some ideal condition but in an ideal condition(e.g activity score and rating on previous rider btw the two party) the uber app will pick the closest driver to the rider.

Concerning Bolt You re very correct, and concerning Uber U re also right

The last two sentences very key!!!

shollywendy1:
If a danfo driver arrested and fined by either Vio or lastma. Every passengers will alight from the bus sharp sharp even requesting for fare refund, leaving the danfo driver to his faith to sort himself out.
But simply because we have rider's doesn't make her to share part of the fine with us. Nonsense

Once U re driving and any traffic rule(s) is(are) disobeyed, d offender is always d driver and not d passenger.

E.g, U re putting on a seatbelt as a driver and ur rider is not using his/her own if Road safety shud stop you, d driver will be charged.

But seriously issues like dis I always listen to two sides of the story b4 engaging or calling.

For the record I have helped people to call or message more Dan 12 peeps on money related issues on dis thread.


Let's thread carefully

Pearl1910:
I guess the Abule Osun referred here is around Unilag not that one u are referring to.

If we agreed on that then we will continue the discussion

Two things re fundamentally wrong with ur post.

1... Dere is NO Abule Osun around Unilag

2. Even if it is Unilag side, Y re drivers rejecting to go there.( Ur ignorance and knowledge is inversely proportional)

But Pope Sir, shey dem force d guy to comment?....

Felicity0001:
The tin shock me too that I'd to go back and read the line again and again some people can be so ungrateful shall.

Yaba to Abule Osun is about 25km plus waiting time

Estimated as 3.5k minimum and 4.5k Max

Coming back estimated 3.5k min and 4.5Max

Yaba to VI 1.2k min 2kmax

Min amount 3.5 + 3.5 + 1.2 = 8.2k
Max amount 4.5+ 4.5+ 2 = 11k

To me, what the app calculated was d going trip plus the time on the app, the distance covered from Abule Osun to Yaba and Yaba to VI was not calculated

For giving him 8k, the guy was reasonable and for adding the 1k... You have also done well.

Pearl1910:
Yaba to Abule Osun - N600
Waiting for 1hr.30mins - N1000
Abule Osun to Jibowu - N500
Another waiting of 30mins - N330
Abule Osun to Kofo Abayomi - N2,000
Base Fare - N220
Total fare for the ride is N4,650
So plus or minus N4,700 was the right fare for that trip, App was very correct.

U see as we dey suffer abi

That guy get mind to still ask u to add am something after giving him 8k, instead of being thankful. God bless your heart Bro.

Mr Man , seems you don't know Abule Osun oo, is not Abule OJa, but sincerely if you don't know something, Y not google it or just keep quiet.

I picked these 2 girls at Cadogan Estate on Sunday. The trip was ordered for them by the person they came visiting. I guess the man left them in his apartment before stepping out. Na so dem pack his drinks o. About 4 bottles of wine. The trip was on card. Na so they wan go everywhere. Las las we had about 4 stops before the final destination.

I was with another trip to Ikeja when I sighted the drinks in the car. Sharp guy that I be, I called the man immediately instead of them. The man was livid. He asked how many bottles and pleaded that I should call him whenever I'm around the place.
Hours later one of the ladies called me. I let her know I already called the man. She pleaded with me too to call her anytime I'm around her place instead of the man.

She has called me twice after then. I told her to make an arrangement for delivery as I work only on the mainland. But she appears reluctant.

What do you guys think?

Return it to the man and have a sure offline client, return to d ladies you might be lucky to add another oven to ur list.


Eithers ways you know what's is right

Pearl1910:
I thought so too, but I have been crossing it since Saturday till this morning, then I went and read their tweet again, then I understood what they meant; u can't branch into adekunle/yaba from oworo/gbagada/ogudu end. And u can't go towards oworo/gbagada/ogudu from adekunle/yaba end also. So if u r going to yaba from oworo, pass anthony to ikorodu road and vise versa.

Thanks for dis bro

Pls house, having a trip to festac on Thursday,what is d traffic like around 11.30 to 12 leaving 4.30. not really used to that area at all. How much is favourable to charge. Go and come.

Thanks

Firstly d info you provided is not complete

From which point of pick up and again you just scrambled d whole time and I got confused.

E.g

Just state I am leaving from Surulere to Festac on Thursday around 11:40am. And my client is a brother to Dangote or my client just graduated from Uni and still looking for Job. That's what will prompt the price
