What do you think about Uber?
strange one, they seem to have no concept of self preservation and are determined to expand at all costs, and to hell with the negative press and poor quality.couple of our guys work with uber part time and seem to really enjoy it, as have I on the rare occasion I've done a bit with them registered when they launched in Glasgow 2 and a bit years ago and have managed an average of 3 jobs a week for them over that time

Have you seen Fake Taxi? Not a good earner, but maybe worth trying for a couple of days per week.

hackney or private hire? I did a bit of private hire in Glasgow back in the early 90s. Hilariously funny on occasion.
PH and exec although I have passed the Hack test in Glasgow just don't fancy dropping 30 grand into a dying tradeAndStilliRise said:
Which brand of fuel is the best?
haven't used anything bar BP for the last 10 yearsA genuine question that often gets my curiosity going, attempted to word this without suggesting taxi drivers are dim.
I've noticed in heavy rain, fog, dusk any time really with poor visibility, taxis are always the only cars to not have lights on, is this taxi drivers trying to save bulb life and only putting lights on at night time or something else?
