Asked by pensacola cabby almost 11 years ago

the average turnover for a cab driver is 60% so yea its pretty high. if you want to be a cab driver they used to require you to have lived in the las vegas area for a year however i think all you need now is residency. the summer months and the major religous holidays are pretty slow ie christmas easter and such, thanksgiving is not good either but other than that it's pretty good the first quarter of the year is by far the busiest
