That's Right, StriveOn is returning the Red Key.
No, I dont have grudges against Transcab.
Yes, Transcab is not up to standards on many aspects.
I return key, mostly because of my circumstances.
If you ask me what is a good cab to drive.
My answer is Wish.
If you ask me what cab is value for money.
My answer is Transcab Wish.
Then why StriveOn gives up Transcab?
When I took up Wish, I was thinking Serangoon CNG station less than 2.5 km from my place. CNG no problem.
But after take up Wish, Serangoon CNG price difference is crazy. Only Toh Tuck is reasonable.
Many times when I run out of CNG, I am like more than 20km away from Toh Tuck.
Lau Jiao says go ahead run on Petrol. Get Pax more important.
Being business minded, I can only allow myself less than 30km on petrol.
Sometimes I travelled more than 100km and still not near to Toh Tuck.
CNG is one problem, but I kept driving.
Recently, I had some errands which I had to do (besides driving taxi, I am doing other stuff)
This caused me to ‘Park’ the Taxi, up to 2 days in a week.
Difficult to relief out because my timing is unpredictable.
Each parking is almost $100 (before deduct benefits)
But,… I continue to drive.
Then,.. my maid ran away.
This is my 2nd maid,.. Failure.
We treat our maid very nice, but she run.
My wife now scared to get another maid.
Because we have 5 foreign students to look after.
So now StriveOn becomes ‘maid’
Until wife cools down and gets new maid.
…. Cannot drive liao
When my problem over, and I drive again,
Probably I will drive as a Relief.
No regrets as an OMO.
But I will be Relief for the future.
Sorry, I come back later,
got to wash the dishes,
and hang the laundry....
Wish u all da best bro...
Wah maid runaway ah? Same as ah pool. Stress leh....I also want to hire maid now hear liao very stress.
Btw where you stay? You drive day or night? Now seem like day easier to find hirer cos hirer all wants to drive night. Or the other way round?
I stay Serangoon North.
They say dont get Pinoy or Indonesian maids. Problematic.
My neighbour Myamar maid, quite reliable.
Just a word of advise,
the most dangerous party is not the maid,
the most dangerous party is the agency.
My maid very daring, because the agency teach her what to do.
I stupid, stupid trust the agency, but after everything over, I slowly think, and realised that the only way my maid can get what she wants is because somebody very familiar with the regulations is guiding her.
Why agency help maid.
Because they can 're-cycle' the maid and get new commissions.
Maid can try new household, new boss, and what other financial benefits, I dunno.
Agency knows the rules, they can easily nail the Employer.
I want to complain to MOM and Embassy about the maid.
Agency says cannot because my address in Telok Blangah and Maid works in Serangoon. Breach of MOM regulations.
I never bring maid to Telok Blangah, how the maid knows this loop hole.
Agency is the devil. I lost this battle. Paid maid in full, paid her the air ticket.
And the person who suffer is me, while she do wrong things like breach of contract and run away.
Hiazz.
StriveOn is a wise man , he certainly made the correct decision .
As for maid , run away ? Heng got buy Security Bond Assurance of that $5000 . If not StriveOn jiak lat .
No worries .
This maid won't be able to work in Singapore again , Agency will not be able to recycle this maid .
Unless recycle somewhere else .
Pool, you mistaken.
This maid will continue to work in Singapore.
I CANNOT complain because she is working in a different address from my NRIC address.
I lives in Serangoon, rented, while my HDB is in Telok Blangah.
I can only lun lun, let go this case..

Singapore lifestyle , working parents very common .
Nowadays local woman also love to work , now many dun like to be housewife .
A maid is a must for my family .
Cos children laundry and food , must have someone to prepare .
Cleaning of the house also need maid to do it .
Both of us too tiring after work to do it .

It's a waste ... i mean not be able to drive the Wish .
It's a lovely car to drive .
If i from Premier , i will do my best find a Toyota diesel taxi like a Wish , surely very Popular .
Even a diesel toyota 1800cc , i think also will be better than a Korean Sonata
