I can't quite see in the advert that in a couple of years time a) it will have to be replaced by a £20/25/30,000 motor, or b) it could be worth f*** all. [-(

Plates down here a\re going for £45 grand plus. :shock:
And thats with a 5 year old Skoda. :shock:
Still come Jan Feb then that will sort the men from the boys.
And 45 grand over five years is only about 180 quid a week. :shock:
And what happ[ens when the council gets rid of numbers?
In other words madness, sheer bloody madness. :sad:

We have a couple of owners who let it slip that they do around 1500 quid a week, but they don't have a real home to go home to and no family

There is one chap who is seen working till 0400hrs and then seen working the ranks the next day at 1030hrs, :x unfortunatly for me the interest has gone with this cabbing lark, I make enough to get by, a bit in the bank, thanks, I've gone

Another night driver comes out at 2200hrs, reckons every night he does 50p per minute every shift.

Am I doing something wrong :?

Apart from telling the truth not really.

What these idiots, who tell all how much they take, don't realise is that it [edited by admin] people off who are only earning the minimum wage.

Rule number 1, is to tell the world and his wife that you have had a bad night. Also less chance of being mugged.

yes you most certainly are.
you are spending too much time talking and taking notice of liars

50p a minute during the day is neon impossible given traffic etc.

take the [edited by admin] out of them

the longer hours you work the less per hour you can take, the body cannot take the long hours you describe.

an accident is waiting to happen.
