License still not issued what, you cant drive taxi. Anyway got many years driving ahead of you, enjoy this moment doing other things
If you dun mind, this month me got lobang at Chinatown to sell CNY goodies, but paid damn low, food included.
this month is CNY, alot of shops and companies sure want to hire staff during this period. you can call employment agencies and tell them you are looking for temp work during this 1 month.
like peng bak kua at woodland, ai mai?? PM me
got free bak kua??
Before you got your TVL licence, there 1 thing you must do. Take Taxi more often, let the TD Chauffeur you, before you chauffeur pax as your career.
Take this time study more .... those syllabus u studied , not enuf .
Study what ?
eg where is those CBD boundary ... what price for ERP ?
What's those timings for ERP ?
Then where is MBS ? Where is RWS ?
Where is Raffles Quay ?
Where is Marina Bay Financial Centre ?
Many more .... but mostly , on the job , then u will know more , but the software must be there lah .....

haha well said bro~~~
Thanks lot.Poolman
one thing one must learn .... well not easy though .
one must learn to think like commuter to drive a taxi .
well a bit like psychology ..... like think what if u are in their shoes ?
Like what will they think ? And if u are commuter , what will u do ?
well , that need a bit of on the road then can .
Congrats bro LDM!
Your situation is exactly the same as mine two years ago. Waiting for TVDL before CNy and later LTA give us the license inside a red packet :)
When unker Poolman say, you should pay attention, even though he had said it for one thousand two hundred and thirty forth time. First one to learn is the CBD and expressway exits.
I think for new cabbies, it will take around two weeks to learn all the expressway exits. Then take another two to learn the major roads in the housing estate (eg, AMK Ave1/3/5/6/8/10, etc). After that maybe a few more weeks before learn the smaller streets (eg, AMK St 11/21/31/41/51/61, etc).
Just add a couple minor things,
If you cannot wait then call LTA, STA, your instructor, etc to expedite the license. 1 month is quite a long time, unless you have time to wait.
In the meantime, go through this forum to decide which company you want to drive for and which shift you want (day or night). If you want to OMO, please make sure you go interview with unker Pool first.
Also learn tricks how to get hirer (can go through company, or put paper with your contact on cabs parked near your block, or through the web, etc)
GOOD LUCK!!!!

And while glancing , visualise those areas ... Like A01 Lucky Plaza , next ? A02 Paragon , A03 Mt E , etc .... the A's keep going down Orchard Road . Then Why B ? Boundary of Bugis , so u visualised the Bugis boundaries . Where C ? And so on .... This lesson is million dollar lesson , hahahahahah
