Ask me anything! i will be as honest as possible as to my experiences as a cabbie in las vegas since 2007. if you want a day to day on some of the happenings in the job you can also follow me on twitter, vegascab @vagascab
It will be very easy to get a cab on christmas nobody gets to take off unless it is their scheduled day off...it should be between $12-15 to the mgm DO NOT LET YOUR DRIVER TAKE THE FREEWAY swenson to tropicana is your route
taxi drivers have a 60% turnover rate, the biggest reason for the high turnover is mostly the money though when you start you are on a bad shift it takes some time to make any kind of money
On that shift you need to learn which clubs are open the night before and dont work the airport until about 10. Mgm is never a bad bet after like 6 lots of checkouts. Also a good idea to be aware of convention schedule the last day and after last day will have multiple check outs. That shift is bad do your best to get a later shift. That is the worse shift to be in, and the worse time of year...hang in there it gets better
For a new driver it is tough to make money because it is difficult to get into a groove as to what works on certain nights and where and when to go to places like the airport. When you start you will be on an early morning shift and be on what is known as the "extra board" but you will get to work as much as you want
