Like I said ..its how its done HERE
I was asking ....never mind.

You weren't just asking...you were arguing about how it's done HERE and why your plan couldn't work.

You've changed your tune from just wanting to hobby cart your friends around with your own limo and being totally unrealistic to finally asking some legitimate questions. Just man up about your previous tone and insistence.

How long did you drive?
I've been a cabbie for a bit over a year.

Most don't last 30 days FWIW...they are either fired for safety infractions or quit because of the hours and frustrations.

Oh, yeah...there's a camera in your face all day, every day! Everything you say and do is recorded throughout your whole shift. If there are no "incidents" then the next shift overwrites your shift.
If the camera is set off for any reason 20 before and 20 after the incident is saved and automatically downloaded to the Safety Officer's computer for review. If at any time you are suspected or accused of doing something wrong the supervisors can hook up a laptop and download your whole shift.

I actually really like the job about 75% of the time.
The pay can range from great to absolutely abysmal...only PART of the fluctuation is on you...there's a huge fluctuation between days and weeks and months. Count on making less than min wage Sept through January!.....INCLUDING tips! Unless you are awesome at diverting (Illegal) passengers to the strip clubs! ...Most weeks during that period at least.

I don't know much about the limo gig except the drivers are annoying and entitled.
I wouldn't ever want to be one HERE.

Either gig though will NOT qualify as a hobby gig! They will work you 60+ hours per week....the company wants it's money!

Take in a counterfeit bill....take money out of your tips/wallet/bank...they want their money!
Someone runs out without paying....you get ONE cover of up to $30 per year...after that it comes out of your pocket!
Don't get tipped.....too bad, you get taxed as if you got a 10% tip anyway!

Default wow

No I was thining of driving them around in the town car I own now.
IF I could run a little fleet of one, maybe do airport runs ect.

I just wanted to know if that was possible.
Since I had read that Taxi's are VERY difrent there than they are here.

I was looking for INFO on who it takes to reg a car for service in Nv.

I had no idea you could just get a JOB and show up and drive their car.


Instread of trying to **** on someone, maybe you could help . That was my point.
If your last post was your first post I would not suspect you are a hater or a troll.
A simple," you will never get liscensed to do that."
would have been easy enough to type I would have though.

Sorry YOUR freinds all dont value your time...hard to imagine when you have such a charming dispostion!

No, you were arguing that you COULD do it here!
I gave you more info than anyone...Whatever...good luck!


IMHO you are WAY too sensitive to do either gig...especially in LV!

And you seem too mean to be a good cabby.
I have a lot of time in customer service.
Done well enough that I plan to quit and work part time.

See you out there soon

Also thanks you for the info.

I got no problem with anyone....just keep the stupid at bay and we'll all get along!

I mean come on....at least don't try and act like all you(Not YOU Kay.) were doing was asking question B when the whole time you were arguing question A until after I fed you question B as a way out!

I call people on their BS and take it when people call me on mine! If you can't admit when you're being stupid then I have no tolerance for you! People are just to soft these days!
