After months of consideration, decided to become a full time hirer. Really thank tha lao jiao in this forum for all the tips, appreciate tat. I had decided to drive from 5am to 10am (option to drive till around 12pm) and (4pm to 10am). Target of about $200 to $300 in the 1st 3 mths and >$300 after that. If after 3 month can't tahan, then look for relief.
I had decided to sign up with comfort and think that they have a referer scheme wherby a comfort hirer can refer a new hirer and can get some $$$. Is that true? If so, any comfort hirer wanted to refer me? Can pm or email me to discuss.
i never heard anything about from Comfort .
But if i were you , i would go for TransCab Wish .
Why ?
Let me show you :
Referal fee : $1000 to the referal , $1000 to you .
CNG rebate : $712 per month .
Non Claim Bonus $660 .
And some miscellaneous benefits like performance , rental payment etc ....
In total : TransCab pay you $11,204 for the first year .
Wow Poolman, TransCab got such offer meh? Then no need to pay any other fees etc? Like security deposit? How about the course fee? Cos I know Comfort does reimburse the course fee. Not sure for other companies.
It can be arrange that u negotiate with the referal that he dun take all $1000 , but a nominal coffee money of $200 .
so u can have all the $1800 . If he dun wan , keep looking for another one that agrees that condition .
One condition : Both party cannot leave or resign TransCab within a year . Either one also cannot leave . One go , $$$$ all go .
The $2000 is like complete full course of 1 year than pay u . Or maybe in 12 months instalment .
That one u ask from them .

security surely got one , $1000 .
Security fee is a deposit , incase u accident , u no money pay , they take from the secuirty deposit inside

i am so sure TransCab will reimburse the fee if u intend to sign up for them .
What Comfort they do , TransCab either they do it better , or level with Comfort . They never do anything below Comfort .

$300 OMO ???
Your timing will not be possible .
6am , to 6pm , then extend until 8pm , the average i think is $240-$270 . $300 cannot achieve in average .
I would say $240 is realistic .
$11,204 , if u divide by 365 days , one day is about $30.70 .
So if the Wish is rental per day $99 , nett rental should calculate as $68 .
$68 OMO can la .... Sonata already $105 perday .
$37 between a Wish and a Sonata .
That's the diff between a Sonata and Wish , their salary package is difference by $11,204 .

I know Wish is $99 rental , free rental i dunno yet , must ask .
Common sense tell me , the benefit oready so good , free rental if got , even better , if dun have , it's ok .
Contract ? Of u take the $2000 , minimum stay in TransCab is one year i think .
Deposit ? Only the $1000 ...
Accident access is same like Comfort la i think . I never receive so complex info .
So complex must call them to ask .

why ? U interested ?
I really hope the info my kaki told me , it's really meant for TransCab Wish .
I really dun hope sekali is meant for their old Toyota Crown .

Axel , if i were you , i will focus first in getting the license .... got liao , then i find a referal .
I am not too sure if TranScab insist on experience driver ... this one also must check .
As for Comfort , they use to pay referal ..... to drive a Comfort Blue Toyota Crown only , not for Sonata .
Comfort they reimburse your course fee ... but they will press newbies for a Toyota Crown which they stuck alot .
i also check with my friend , positive , $2000 referal is meant for Toyota Wish .

Thanks for opinion. Some mistake on the timing, i intend to drive:-
-5am to 10am (with option to extend till 12pm)
-10am (12pm) to rest till 3pm
-3pm to 10pm drive again

this timing fundamentally works , but no life .
It's good to get a Sunday relief ... If possible let go good price for Sunday Full .
can call teo , he also OMO now , driving Crown .
Hi Poolman,
Tks for ur advise. Appreciate tat. U think with this kind of timing can earn about $300 per day during weekdays after 3 months on-the-job training? Previously was doing sales so i guess my learning curve should be pretty steep. Also, i will be driving sonata cos my left leg will tremble after long hours of driving so need to get a auto taxi

nett $300 ? Or collection $300 ?
Anyway both also cannot achieve one la , dun be nutz .
If everyday $300 , one month $9000 , like that in hospital no doctors liao ... doctor also go drive taxi .
ur thinking reverse to what i thought that time ...
that time i gave myself $200 collection daily , gradually increase by $10 each week , then when the momentum consistent liao , i up another $10 each day ....
When i became a better driver , i up again .....
When 3 months up , i assume i am a slightly more matured driver , i go for my average .
And my average , relax manner , $245 , then i go home lo .....
I ever push myself further to another notch ... can be achieved .... but no point , affect my next day rhythm .
Really pointless , when u earn $20 extra today , but bloody shack , then next day earn $20 less due to fatigue , but my body still yet to recover . It affected my next next day .
Fundamentally it talk only , can be done .
By all about each individual stamina .... i yet to see one cabby , that do that routine for 365 days , and yet still alive and kicking .

Oh , u are the 1st one i knew , leg became tremble after long hours on the road ....
The u must exercise a bit ...
Friday i went Comfort , cos my friend changed a Crown to a Sonata , his hirer resign crown , and he signed up a Sonata . Swap la !!
His rental almost $100 .
We saw many Sonata , many OMO quit Sonata i guessed .
Who can tahan $100 rental , if TransCab Wish offers $712 CNG cash rebate , rental also about $99 ???
OMO will think .... $712 divide by 31 , daily about $23 less on rental .
Like me on Wish , u on Sonata , we start same time , i already win you $23 hands down effortless !!!!
