A young man of 21 attended our Taxi School a few years ago. He passed the topographical test first time at the tender age of 22. He paid the extra insurance premium himself due to his young age. Not long after his fiancé passed her test. They now have their own taxi at the age of 25.
That's the difference between me being a clown and you being bitter.
I can see the positives this trade brings where you want to simply destroy it through sheer vindictiveness because you were refused a third plate.

The figures you refer to before are a simple exercise of addition and division.
I have only been on here a few weeks but the negativity in the Edinburgh section of this forum is mind numbing. How you have managed to perpetuate this bile for the best part of eight years is beyond me. Perhaps there is some sort of medication involved.
I hope you can somehow manage to reinvent yourself and find some sort of happiness in the near future but I somehow doubt it.

Wow!! :shock: :shock: :shock: He bought a taxi plate that he cannot own and which holds no intrinsic value just to have a job. =D> =D> =D> =D> Oh and I bet he now has a cab*igger of his own to prop-up his pretendy little business working long hours for sh*t pay, picking up shi* people. #-o #-o #-o But at least he gets to swan around pretending he is a businessman. #-o #-o #-o

Well lets see these figures Les (Einstein) Mcvay, I bet you won't put them up here on the forum?

Les all you talk is absolute shi*e!! #-o #-o #-o It's complete and utter bullshi*!! #-o #-o #-o And that's not negativity, that's a FACT!! #-o #-o #-o #-o Oh and now that GETTAXI and UBER have appeared on the scene you and your ilk are being found out. =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

So Les, can we count on City Cabs charging the drivers and shareholders commission on each job instead of paying radio dues? That way you can beat UBER and GETTAXI at their own game.... #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Your claim was 8% commission on each job? #-o #-o #-o Sounds good to me... #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o GO FOR IT CITY CABS!! #-o #-o #-o #-o
