Watwheels Supersonic August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 But seriously why isn't the taxi driver not a CEO if he has such a good brain for business? Is there something wrong with this story? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahgong Supercharged August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 (edited) timely reminder... Many drivers complain that business is tough and the price of gas has gone up. They are trying to pin the cause down on other people. If you keep pinning the cause on other people, you will never get any better. You must look at yourself to see where the problem is. This sounds very familiar. It seems like “If you cannot change the world, then you should change yourself” or perhaps a pirated copy of Steven Corey’s “Circles of Influence and Concern.” Edited August 1, 2014 by Ahgong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wt_know Supersonic August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 (edited) good read i hope more chinese think like that instead of thinking the only way to make more money is to make fake and toxic stuff Edited August 1, 2014 by Wt_know 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1fast1 Supersonic August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 But seriously why isn't the taxi driver not a CEO if he has such a good brain for business? Is there something wrong with this story? Not necessarily so. Some smart people love the flexibility of this kind of job. Or they're simply not keen on joining the rat race. Look at Good Will Hunting. Ability was hardly a problem for him, he was just content to remain a janitor (initially). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fast1 Supersonic August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 Interesting article and clever driver. Only issue is that his behaviour is exactly the sort of thing that's led to complaints against Sg taxi drivers. If more people acted the same way, the cab company would probably have to clamp down, just like here. The only reason he can afford to be "clever" is because so many remain "dumb". In any case, some situations not applicable to Sg - e.g. very strict taxi Qs at hospitals. Our daily life is quite regimented compared to China. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahgong Supercharged August 1, 2014 Share August 1, 2014 but to some extend, it can still be applicable to the local scene. rather than pick and choose your fare, you pick and choose your locations where you want to take your fare. more often than not, you will hit a higher earning rate. much better odds than spend hours queuing at the airport then cuss and swear when the fare goes to tampines OR queuing at the different casino only to pick a fare going to tiong bahru smarter way and better way to earn, IMO.
