36 yr old cab driver mati in his sleep

[soikee]

A Merc cab driver living in AMK Ave 8 has just passed away in his sleep. He was only 36 years old.

He went to sleep and never woke up again due to fatigue? Apparently he was driving 17 hours a day hoping to earn enough to cover his $140 a day cab rental and his daily income.

What has happened to the Swiss standard of living the PAP promised us in the 1980's?

$140 a day in cab rental. Now you know what taxi companies such as Comfort Delgro are so fucking rich.

Cabbies can't take leave or go on MC, otherwise it'll be a net loss for the day.

And I haven't even mentioned costs incurred for washing cars, carparking, ERP, fuel and maintenance.

When the taxi is at the workshop, not only do you not earn shit, you'll have to pay the rental.

In my opinion, this is possibly the best way to die, i.e. peacefully, while sleeping...
So he's probably literally resting in peace now...

He drove till he dropped dead.

First of all, many taxi drivers have no problem covering their rental by SHARING the vehicle. I dun drive so I take taxis often. Many taxi drivers refused to have relief drivers cos "too troublesome", "cannot get along" etc etc. So they put stress on themselves and have to drive 17 hours a day, that kind of nonsense.

A taxi is an instrument of work, not their personal transport vehicle. They need to understand that they are running a business, not working for Comfort or whatever. No one owes them a living. So they should drive during peak periods to make money and let their wife/children/parents take public transport. Knn peak hours when they should be making money, they go spend time with family.


As long as they cannot understand that, they will continue to grumble at the unfairness of the world.

oh pls, driving a taxi is not running a business. You dun own that taxi, you rent it. If the taxi does not belong to you, you are working for the taxi company but all risk in dealing with the vehicle is on that driver and not on the company.

not your business but you assume all the risk. fuck up.

stay in sinkieland at your own risk. plus live among sinkies at your own risk too.

Cover rental already then earn how much?

He is probably working long hours just to make ends meet. How much can a cabby driving 17 hours per day make in net income? $3-4k per month? How much is that hourly? Macdonald's wages? 3-4k can barely get by in sinkieland.

Who says 3-4K not enough, SDP have proven last year that 2.5K can support 2 kids and wife + pay for house.
