Diary of a Cabbie by John McDonagh

fawad: hi,,,i live in bensonhurst brooklyn,,i am looking taxi for night,full time,,6469154816

BkMark: Yes, every fleet garage in NYC has corrupt tipping practices.

Milton: Some TLC friendly garage dispatchers make 350-550 per shift after milking the drivers for tips! Are these widespread practices at every fleet garage?

Joel: TUE, THU, SAT, SUN doules available till April 14. Call 718-290-6891

Zen: To B.B.Borinca, you explain it well. It is a thankless job! Does your fleet garage or the TLC ever reward you for the work, what drivers do in 60-70 hour per weeks? They take more money from the drivers and telling them, we give you Hybrid Taxi to save you money! Can you tell me how much better NOW, then 25 years ago?

Brighton Beach Borinca: To Zen. Log ago regulators and fleet rental garages (the taxi powers) decided they would become zillionaires, and cabbies would NOT have a living wage. Even 12/7/365 working, can't make it. The ultimate goal is desperate part timers will be cabbies making about $40 a shift profit for a little extra money. Just look at and read the front page of the Taxi Insider February issue, power celebrated and cabbies still whining and begging, if only they could get their message thru. Cabbies are in long-ago designed grand scheme to fail. Grand scheme: Private cabbies must eventually fail too.

Zen: How many hour cabdrivers should work for an acceptable income?

Driver 8: I get so excited when drivers flooding the website with very interesting comments and ideas!

Zen: To Jim Jones! First, visit one of the fleet taxi garages, and talk to cabdrivers! Ask them what they like about driving a cab, at least 4-5 cabdrivers. Then visit the TLC website - nyc.gov - select TLC for more information or visit their office at 33-02 Queens Blvd, 2nd Floor -LIC, NY.
