And it's such a shame the PH side of the trade does it far better than your side.
But in respect of your rank point, what's that got to do with it. PH don't disappear into thin air between jobs, they must sit somewhere, and the road is the place.
What you are saying is basically the reps from the taxi trade, or your taxi trade, are too lazy to actually do their job and represent their drivers properly.
Which surprises me not a jot.
No they don't and no they can't, but they also should not sit in position where they are likely to get approached either, and in todays world they are actually sitting in these spots deliberately,
Nobody is being too lazy, down your way is according to you run efficiently, yet there is still the need to discuss the problem at the meetings isn't there, so even in an area which I admit does look very well set up this problem still exists,
But lets make no mistake here a PH car has no right to expect anything other than pre booking custom, there is no why can't a PHC tout for business independently, it's why one is Private and the other is Public, bit like Mens and Ladies toilets, one should never try to use the others facilities should they, and before I get the Hack on a circuit routine, that is down to who owns the office, if they want a Hack on their fleet then they made that choice, there is no room for allowing it to happen the other way around otherwise a bus company will be wanting to pick people up using HGV lorries, we are what we are by description and that is route one of the problem because drivers aren't following the rules and office owners are encouraging them to do it, if anyone is to blame it's the law itself for failing to provide effective enforcement rules.
