I'm a new cabbie (6 shifts) and I am not making average book per night. I'm close but no cigar. A couple of guys in my training class are making average book per night. I'm not getting as many trips as they are, but I feel I keep busy. Any tips?

Asked by Mark almost 13 years ago

It depends on what shift you are working...kind of sounds like you are early days so that is what I will base the answer on.  You need to know what hotels have clubs that are working the night before for example on a Thursday morning you should head to the mandalay bay by the convention side because Wednesday nights the light club becomes "elipse" and is really popular.  The hotels with clubs on nights like this will have a lot of cabs because they are the only ones moving.  You have to remember that a lot of cabs is not always a bad sign also I found after about 10 is when the airport actually started to work kind of pointless to work there earlier unless there is a convention coming in that day or the next. I hope I helped my twitter is connected to hear I will always try to help as much as i can if you want to contact me through that channel

Hi,

My 29 year old son is thinking of moving there next year. What could he expect to make if he did? He has a felony on his record. Does that matter?

Thank you,

Laurie

Asked by Laurie over 11 years ago

when you first start its tough to make money but it is not bad, depends on what the felony is for and it is completely up to the taxicab authority to say if he could get a job or not
