Remember that you are the Captain of your ship and let no one disturb your peace. If someone tries to look down on you it is because he or she have a low self esteem. If someone raises their voice and /or becomes vuglar cancel the ride immediately and notify your app company to protect yourself.Never lower yourself to their standards nor be embarrassed at your occupation . As long as your behind the wheel and performing a service you are a driver and there is no shame in working for a honest days pay.
If you have fire insurance burn your car ,collect the money and call it a day.
Is there a ejection seat button in his way over priced car ?
NO shortage of stupidity. Twenty years ago before all the commie pinkos landed in NYC, the TLC purposed installing a meter in all for hire vehicles to level out the playing field. Now is the perfect opportunity to do so in which all apps would become powerless and all the tightwads can go back to mass transit. Of course door to door service is premium so the metered rate would be higher than a yellow cab which means less congestion, and upswing in the medallion value.
There is always someone willing to buy the Brookllyn Bridge and they are a perfect match. Next story please...
Hopefully they will pull out of NYC and take their tightwad passengers with them
He is a disgrace to all professional drivers and I wouldn' be surprised if he got carjacked .
If you give a driver a unacceptable rating you would have to explain why AND have the driver respond to the complaint. If the passenger lied then there should be a penalty in the form of money so that he or she will think twice .
Why answer a stupid question ?
Install a engine cut off switch and carry a can of raid.
Hopefully it will be filled with non tippers and veered off into the sewer.
For dummies who do not carry cash there are are plenty of atm machines to pay the driver and for you not to be a irresponsble get over moron. I would not hesitate to call 911 to have you arrested for theft of services along with locking the doors to let you smell a fart bomb. By the way machines do break more than drivers who claim it isn' working.
Of course we do why would we give five stars to a tightwad ?
I hope they correct the non tippers
Hopefully all the non tippers will opt for driverless cars because you will do the drivers a big favor and yourself one for being a shameless smuck.
If your a newbie I suggest a split shift ,am rush and pm rush so you get get a feel of how to handle passengers .
I would drop the star system and replace with acceptable and unacceptable. Then I will add a 15 % surcharge that goes directly to the driver which would be technically a tip . If a passenger rated said driver a unacceptable rating then they may explain why and then redeem their 15% bit also having the driver respond to the rating.The rates should in line with local yellow cab companies in which people can make their own choices on the type of car they perfer . Either you give value or you give quality because you cannot give both as you can see by all the problems that both sides of the fence has encounted.
All TLC bases keep electronic records of expired documents including drivers license and TLC license. It is IMPOSSIBLE for a driver to log in for work if you have a expired and/ or invalid license. Secondly the NYS DMV is privately owned and it is very possible that the driver had his/her license inadvertently suspended for unknown reasons. Thirdly the driver would then have no insurance since they too are computer integrated. The nipple is for your childish attitude that deserves no merit for compensation. MAN UP JACK.
If more customers were like you driving for a living would be a blissful pleasure
Most passengers do not care about how little your making. They want the least for the most and that' why you always must be one step ahead of the game .
Your a tightwad and you would do us justice by taking mass transit and not worry about this long story of if how when why what.
