Taxi Driver Online

Quote "The last topic was simply unacceptable in today's world. The cloak and dagger racism shown is just embarrassing. Thankfully this kind of thinking will disappear from society in 20 to 30 years time."

can we change it to cablemmings. probably just as apt and keeps everyone happy

I don't think Les understands the meaning of the word - racism.

Cab****er is more than adequate when referring to taxi drivers. "cablemmings" yeah... I see where you are coming from but Cab****er has a certain ring to it and let's face it, it pi**es the Cab****ers off on this forum no end...

If it's not offensive Skull then why asterisk it out?

There's just no need to use the word. What has gone so badly wrong in your life you need to be such an [edited by admin] a lot of the time?

The sad thing is having known you in the trade you are much better than this.

I have a feeling the word Cab****er fits being a taxi driver like a glove. None of you have any rights to speak of and nearly four-fifths of your trade has no political say. Economically, Cab****ers have to work a ridiculous amount of hours to pay a stipend to an overseer to gain access their tools just to prop-up his pretendy business. Oh and socially, you can't have a life when you to have to live in cab in order to earn a decent crust.

It's not my fault the word fits. You bought, it you wear it.

Associating the CN word with those who are socially, economically and politically denied, commonly known by the N word (no matter the colour of skin) is equally insulting, to associate Cab Drivers who have choice and a means to invest, freedom to work an amount of hours of their choice, freedom to offer an opinion or proxy that opinion is wrong, it's simple s--t stirring.

No. Cab*iggers are the property of the council. And as I have stated many times before, if you are denied unfettered access to the tools of your trade and you have no rights or political say and you have to pay someone a stipend, then you are a Cab*igger.

You could make the argument that at I was a slave overseer but at that time, there were far more shifts available and the rentals reflected the market rate and not the scarcity value of licence plates.

Oh but as a driver I was definitely a Cab*igger. I know what it is to have no political voice or any rights to speak of when faced with an allegation from a member of the public. And your council knows that, for all intents and purposes, you are their property and can treat you according.

So owner or driver, you are still a Cab*igger.

You don't own any cab until you paid off the HP and even then, it is a depreciating asset which inevitably has to be replaced to keep you in a job.


No one legally owns any plate. It is the property of the council and is therefore is owned by the public. It has no intrinsic value and is non transferable by law. Ask your council?


And????

No you work because you have to.

whoopee!!

Another Whoopee!!

No!! She is probably out on the game because she has to support you

Aye so you say but not working forty hours a week you don't...

No being a Cab*igger is doing a shi* job, working shi* hours, picking up shi* people.

You have to work like everyone else and you don't make money in the taxi game without working long shi**y hours, picking up shi*!!

I'm sure you can and working long shi**y hours to do just that.

A whole day?? Now that must make being a Cab*igger all worthwhile.

No that's because you are excrement and probably couldn't tell the difference.
