They'd feel real, real bad..it'd probably mean that theyve crashed and have been stranded on some far off desert Island and the spectre of cannibalism looms... =P~

Uniform all the way, It creates the right impression and it IS good for business, I know there are certain Ph companies in this neck of the woods who will agree :wink:

Although the top button fastened is a bit ott in my humble opinion lol

It depends on what the driver looks like.

A man with a head transplant comes to mind when I look at some of the London Minicab company 'suits'.

It's like the American 'have a nice day', it sounds / looks false and is'nt natural.

I would never give myself a verbal warning for being scruffy. I wanted to give myself a payrise but I wasnt earning enough. Its tough being a taxi driver. eusasmiles.zip
