1 month can earn over 10k.
can consider...taoist rituals... buddhist rites... khoon all learn before...
but earn tis type of money... karma come back veri fast de...

He switch to Epica cos of CK Tan , now CK Tan left as freelance , left him alone .
For $115 , including diesel as OMO , quite shiong also .
The main thing i observe , his OMO timing , is relatively short .
Something like 5am to 5pm , the rest covers like as relief's rental .
By 8pm , he is home sweet home .

If Khoon are to ask me , he suitable for MaxiCab ?
I would say a Big No . He dun seemed to be those who bait for big jobs , he is one of those character , anything will do type , as long there is income , big or small .
Maxi is all about Big , 50pts only , $18 plus meter only .
Street ? Wait long long .
Khoon is those customer orietated type .
Small money is okay , but customers must be happy .
I believe he is those who believe in long term service .
-
Merc for Khoon ?
He will be a very good Limousine , not now .
Once he familiarised with all those routes , landmark , industrial , hotels . I have no doubts in his service capability .
To take a big step into Limousine , with less than one year driving experience , he will face more hiccups and competitions from rivals .
Slowly i will tell him .
His style not neccessary will earn more with Merc .
-
Private Limo for Khoon , forget it .
-
Of course , if Khoon are to ask me ....
If sequence , which would suits him fine ?
1.Wish , lowest cost n overheads . Due to his outstanding issues with Trans .
2.Sonata , for their abundance of $2.30 rubbish ( can be thrown from anywhere ) and his prefered shift .
3.Epica
4.Maxi
5.Merc

I will follow up with 03 to see the potential and progress about MaxiCab in that particular area , our South stronghold .
09 will lead the way there .
I will fight for it .
Not neccessary we will make it , we will try .
Now we are temp , stand one side phui .

That's even better than diesel.
What is the rental like? Now you got me interested !!
About 9.5cent/kmRental i think slightly cheaper than wish before benefits
But to enjoy cheaper rent i think need to commit with 5k la
No contract daily rental most likely higher.
but its the convenience of pumping at all stations all over singapore

U know something Eric ..... i always have high regards for salesman , which i thought they are some very clever people .U are very much like Ken Teo , he is also some kind of salesman , businessman in the making .
U are aggressive in making money , always thinking and maximised , at the shortest time , to get the fastest pay cheque .
Not only from taxi driving , from any source .
When i talk to people , i can sense their desire .
U possessed great sense of desire . Love challenges like Ken Teo .
You one day will join SONATA for that challenge .
Something you want to feel those differences in driving a Wish and a Sonata .
Many people said i can see thru people , scary right ?
I do miscue sometimes .

U know Ken Teo once also tempted to join Prime , signing on for Toyota Axio .But he later dropped that crazy ldea .
I understood Ken Teo inside out , so it's not difficult to see how u felt .

Good morning Bro Poolman.
I come in peace, no matter what, I respect your decision, just like how I respected Bro JDIL...in cyberspace
Most time, we hold different opinion, some contents might get heated up...but hot debate doesn't mean Forum War.
By starting thread like that is no more forumming....hope u could understand my anger. No matter how angry I'm towards any forummers, I also won't start a thread like this, or else, the whole forum will be full of shit.
Good days!

In cyber world , we dun need any apologies , cool it .
My job is simple , like fireman .
Anyone create bushfire , here i am , if on time .
I never bear any grudges to anyone .
We say and forget .
Life goes on for us including you and me .
I also never go on talk bad things behind people .
Although i got messages that some love talk behind Poolman's back .
If i ever hold grudges for such issues , i died long time ago .

Sonata? Only on my first 3 weeks otr..yes cos they always turbo faster than my wish at traffic...but now found a pattern to driving so Wish is ok...until one day tok cok with one td driving prius....now hands and heart very itchy...
I actually more concern with my daily overhead and running cost....
Drive taxi is like exchanging Time for Money. There is a cap to how much we all can really make regardless wat colour taxi we drive.
For me its 10hrs straight otr with short breaks in between there after i will R n R...
As for joining LV, i think on average i only take 1 to 2 calls per day nia sometimes not even one!...lol not that i dont want but not my style to purposely wait for durian dropping when i know i can png somewhere in town...but overall even my call taking is low it does help in my driving smoothness

Now u are still new , anywhere also go .
And hope for connections later .
Like what oldies always say , newbies always very lucky .
Somehow true some not true .
It's all in the head really .
I was like you very good to chiong , slowly three years down the road .
Sian liao .... this place tai ko dun go , that place ulu dun go , the shorter the better .
Now u 4 places also go , one day two places u also say not free .
Things and mindset will change day by day .

CDG was one of khoon's major client during working days...
never like their coorporate philosophy... always hav problems with their work process... one simple thing need ask and check... get approval from here and there to decide.... and always hav difficulties in collection... one invoice for less then $1K... more den three months den settle when the terms is 30 days...
even last time take taxis... will avoid CDG... citycab was khoon favorite - before being accuqired by CDG - den khoon dun take liao...
agreed with pool... tat citycab call system was the best then - from pax point of view.... but somehow after CDG took over.... the whole call system became cock up...
den when trans emerged with the wish... became favorite taxi to take...

now in the transiting stage mah... so slowly add hours...
last time close shop 3pm... cannot one shot jump till close shop 8pm... will slowly add hours and re-structure working hours...
observing and re-strategizing how to maximize the hours after 3pm...
last time close shop 3pm... collection usually about $X... relief rental $Y... so now from 3pm to 5pm can collect another $Y is good enough liao...
den 5pm onwards... coconut tree pax... is all additional income...
also tried before.... juz do shuttle at bishan / toa payoh... 4plus to 6plus... easily also can cover....

ha ha.... if want big money... khoon would hav stayed on in previous trade... commission alone one month easily close to 5k on good months... on lousy months still got decent basic... but comes with lots of stress...
now drive cab more for flexibility of time... drive till sianz... park one side go jalan jalan.... stilll got energy... carry one driving... so as long as cover rental... got enough to give family... enough to pay bills... can do liao...
actually no matter wat type of pax... try to treat them with 平常心... LV pax... TC on call pax or street pax... all same same...
