profatsir's taxi driving journal
-
hello everyone,
pls pardon me,as my english really sucks.
poolman,knoon,bowah had been a great mentor for all of the fellow singaporean for this trade.once again,thanks to all the mentor.:)
been reading the taxi forum for quite sometime,understand taxi driving is not easy in singapore.but i think i can make it since i had drove a class 5 15ton truck as construction material around singapore.
will be a relief driver for my father in law,mostly wed,fri,sat,sun.
here's my start on the journal
enrol TDVL course on march 2012.(once i pass 30yo)
went for the 31 lesson,mon-fri,7-10pm session.(it really take a long time to complete the courses,pls opt for longer training hours,shorter days)
took the test on 11/9/2012 and pass with excellent results scoring 155/160 questions(i took effort to study it well and the test turn out to be freaking easy.)didn,t get 160/160 was sad for me thou.
recieved the letter from lta yesterday and i today fast hand fast leg went to lta to collect the licence.(collected all the 2b/2a/2/3/4/5/tdvl/bdvl yeh!)
went down to Kallang Driver Recruitment Centre (opp Kallang MRT station),pay $10 for the mdt,meter course.have to start the course after my reservist.

Please lah, for the thousand times, again I said, that not only we TD daily routine are the same or almost identical, so are many others, office, factory and service side workers and staffs are all the same, and I should say, more worst than us, at least we, tho have to peng the steering, but more colorful in a way of meeting different peoples and seeing more on the road.However, it is natural that humans have migration instinct and get bore with same routine stuff, even I give you a posh office at MBC, 8 to 5, you also get tired, everyday same routine, on call taxis, take breakfast at office, work and work till break, walk down with colleague to hv lunch, then wait for 5pm, Q up wait for taxis or walk to the nearest MRT, in 2 years time, you also sian, given the nice scenery
