Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: weekend taxi? not good

I HAVE BEEN DRIVING CAB for the last 8 years and what you mean i don't know?

we used to make good money few years ago but due to the surge of many new drivers and cabs and slowing economy and declining riderships and high lease costs, yes , drivibg cab makes less or about the same money as working as store casheirs.
you work 8 hrs at target for 80 bucks but you can
t make 80 bucks for yourself after lease and gas cost in 8 hrs driving cabs.
It's much easier working at mcdonald or jewel osco than driving cab because you make more money plus you get lots of belefits like insurance and retirement planning.

i'm a student.that's why i need a cab for weekend.unfortunately your advise it's useless like a fight between cab drivers on rush street

Paul, I gave good advice. If a guy can't make money driving a cab perhaps he should be cleaning out the stalls at Maywood Park. Don't let this jerk discourage you. There is still money to be made out there. Just like any other job, you do need to work for it though. Just because you have a cab doesn't mean you can just park somewhere and stuff your face. A cab driver has to hustle. Its always been this way.

By the way. McDonald's is for losers. The other guy that is posting about how good the wages and food are there is one.
