getting cured of these parents who send a taxi to pick their kid up at home time. jobs a booking so given 7 mins before cant park anywhere near school go to office and wait be responsible for child walking back to car very busy being alone in car with child even teachers cant do this. drive kid home usually not far so small fare lazy parent not even at door at home no tip. dont get why companies like ours dont grow a set and refuse these jobs,we should tell them we have to pick an adult up first then go and let that adult find their kid and bring back to the car which hasnt been left unattended by driver. or at the very least pick up time from school office 15 mins after school closing and a £3 surcharge on top of fare rant over |

Really ? Im pleased your happy,if i was that way inclined i could introduce you to a few who are far from happy.There again have a look at the ranks and see how many of your taxis pull off for a job,or how many have signs in for 'drivers wanted'........Blinkered,me,.......

I don't mind taking little kids if the jobs worth it. Thankfully I have CCTV which addresses any concerns one should have. However many of the jobs outlined here are often wait and return to drop mum off at home, and they are usually good jobs. |
