Ive been on disability a little over 3 years because of spine issues and 2 surgeries. I'll be off disability soon and should pass the physical Will it be hard for me to get a job as a cab drive having not worked for 3 years and my former disability

Asked by George almost 12 years ago

you should not have a problem at all...as long as you can pass the physical i think there would be some legal issues if they did not hire you!

I need 700 per wk take home. Is that realistic for a new driver working full time? Thanks for all the info.

Asked by Michael over 11 years ago

for a new driver you will probably be coming in slightly less than this

Do you need to take a test before you get a job like a taxi driver in Vegas? Or what are the requirements ?

Asked by Sammy over 12 years ago

There is a test you have to take, its fairly simple and most companies run a prep class...they used to require you lived in the valley for a minimum of a year however that gas been lifted recently.  The only other qualification really is no dui and a heartbeat lol

When credit card machines were installed in cabs, did you see your tips increase, decrease, or stay about the same as before?

Asked by Cole-train over 12 years ago

They have gone slightly down just because of the "voucher" fee.  There is a $3 service charge to use a credit card in a cab that is refered to as a voucher which most people think we share in.  One more reason is that we used to frequently get a $20 bill for a ride that was say $15.50 now we get like 20-30% which is still not bad but not $4.50. 

I will be in Vegas for 1 week in October with my wife. We rarely use drugs but its Vegas and our kids won't be coming on the trip. Is it safe to ask a cab driver for cocaine? What is the price of a gram or an 8ball. Where is the best place to get it?
