Taxi Driver Online

How the record has changed Ali How many times did you rant on to guys like Ross and anyone else who would slag off Comcabs about the amount of chucky you would make
Anyway the reason the chucky was quoted was if you bothered to read the post from your vile little friend it was about the system or should i say "my system".Yes the chucky is not all mine but when the driver hands it in he gets the money from me on the Monday then the chucky goes into my account a couple of days later.Why would i hate him coming to my door with money ? .So someone in a radio company is not making more money than the guy on the street,during the week i think you will find that the radio pays for it's self.Weekends a street car will make just as much as a car on the radio.Now here you go again with your contradictions,"no difference in the profits to be made",now if you truly believed this Ali "WHY"did you come off the street and join a company obviously you thought you would make more money on the radio.I think your the last person to point out mistakes,so just for the record,its, your, not "youre",obviously, not "obviosly",supposedly not "supposidly" and the biggest mistake of all ,selling your plate. .Btw have you found a drive yet

Good one ali.

I just wonder who was meeting the demand while his driver was swanning off to Glenrothes etc.?

The problem for saf is he's telling everyone how everything in the garden is rosy, then tells us that there's only demand for the taxis owned by him and his cronies.

Anyone without a vested interest going to believe this twaddle?

Could it possibly be one of the remaining 1265 taxis or 821 private hire cars?

Probably one of the other 1265 taxis,thats who where meeting your so called demand,
I have never said, "everything in the garden was rosy", i have always said there are more than enough taxi's in Edinburgh, that is why there is "no unmet demand"
You don't have to have a "vested interest" Jim,all you have to have is common sense,which you clearly lack. :
The problem for Jim is that he is telling everybody there are not enough taxi's to cope with the demand but unfortunately for him it's only Gary and Ali that believe him.
I see you have not answered my previous question Jim,"why if there is this so called demand you keep telling us,and clearly you have still not got any proof,do you continue to sit on the ranks waiting for work to come to you.If there was an unmet demand you would be driving about making lots of money".
You are full of wind Jim,a desperate little man that spouts the most sh*te he can,you are a failure,you have failed in the past ,you are failing now and you will continue to fail in the future.

well ali my mate runs his own taxi by himself (no driver) and he has a radio and he is happy with the mix of radio and street work so you are not quite correct there old boy

Ali doesn't do correct,he only makes it up as he goes along.One thing he forgets is,to be a good liar you have to remember what you have lied about in the past.Now we all know how forgetful he is don't we.

also PH numbers have dropped in the last year (not by much i may add) but goes to show that the PH are not taking over

I love your sense of irony saf.

Of course, when you said "I think your the last person to point out mistakes" I think you meant to say "I think you're the last person to point out mistakes".

Tip

You're is short for you are, so try saying the sentence with "you are" in it instead of "you're", and it's then more obvious whether it works or not.

For example, "Is that you're taxi?", is obviously incorrect, because it's just a shortened version of "Is that you are taxi", which obviously doesn't make sense.

By the same token, "your a taxi driver" is incorrect, because it should be the shortened version of "you are a taxi driver", thus "you're a taxi driver" is correct.

All this goes to show is that you don't understand what unmet demand is.

You seem to believe I've said that demand is a constant. That it is always unmet.

I've never said that.

Demand has a cycle, and it is being unsatisfactorily met at shift changeover during evening peak periods, peak weekend periods, 4 weeks of the Festival, Bank Holiday weekends, Shopping peaks in December, Christmas and New Year festive periods, Rugby weekends, International sports events, Peak periods in stations and airports .......

Now, because you're thick, let me say that I sit on ranks outwith these periods, because I'm concerned about meeting demand, and earning a bob. Any other times you see me on a rank, it's because I choose to, and it is patently nothing to do with anyone else. It may be to make or take a fone call, read a paper, eat my food or for any other lawful purpose.

That you seem to be so concerned with my rank habits makes me wonder whether you are stalking me. You aren't a previous spurned lover are you? You aren't some shunned product from CCs are you? Else, what other reason can there be for your obvious infatuation with me?

Looks like you’re getting plenty free speech right now

until this thread gets locked or vanishes?

I don't object to TDO removing threads. The site is theirs and they must do what they can to ensure it isn't closed down in the face of legal threats from those who don't like what is posted.

I merely make the point that the rules in this country are that it is the messenger who bears the brunt of any legal action, not the individual who makes the remarks, and who may be prepared to stand by them because he knows that they are truthful.

I anticipate that the same remarks will be reiterated through a foreign hosted site where such sanction will be less likely. The truth will out as I say.

It would have been appreciated if TDO could have deleted the allegedly offensive material and explained why this had been done.

For instance, is it leaving the site open to legal sanction by stating that it was a certain individual, in an Edinburgh taxi company, using that company's corporate funds to pursue the public condemnation of his personal character, nothing to do with the Company per se (a clear abuse of position), which had forced TDO to pull the thread?

I think not. We're all struggling for the same end. Truth and justice in our taxi trade.

It's only to be expected that those who are responsible for the deceit, pursuit of their own narrow interests and injustice, will kick, scream, cry foul and squeal like pigs when confronted with the unpalatable truth of what their actions and conduct.

I agree with you on this jasbar. TDO had little choice but give in to threats of legal action. The site is more important than any individual who pays lawyers with other people's money.
Nothing was said that isn't already out in the public domain anyway.

I look forward to reading the new (foreign based) site. Loved the last one

I'm pretty sure TDO doesn't really care too much about threats from over paid lawyers, and from over paid taxi bosses.

If stuff goes I'm pretty sure it's never down to threats.

even dimmer than i thought.
where do i say that i dont beleive how much chucky he gave you ?
in my opinion and experience £418. aint that much.
my point is its irrelevent,its just you trying and failling to be the big business man.
i have always said thier is little difference between the companies earnings or street cars for that matter.
the difference being the conditions you are expected to work under and the price you have to pay for that privalidge.
lets get this straight saf.
all taxi drivers in edinburgh earn an average of £15>£21 per hour,to be honest its prob much the same up and down the entire country ,of course there are variations of this depends on youre luck i suppose.
btw street cars make much more profit and far less fuel at the weekends than company cars,thats an undeniable fact.
why did i come of the street and join a company.
well much the same reason i joined one years ago stayed with them for a year and then went back to the street.
i got bored doing the same thing over and over.
you seem to have a problem working out what profit is saf thats what you have left once you have paid youre outgoings.
the profit difference between the street and a company is negligable at best.
its a pity you have so much trouble grasping the simplistics of it.
i would say that you lack experience in the trade,most guys know why thier in a company,and it has nothing to do with the profit.
