What's living in Vegas like? Do you like it? Or does the glamour wear off real quick when it's where you live?

Asked by Banini almost 13 years ago

absolutely love living here however it does get a little boring down the strip especially when all your friends and family want to come down and party all the timeI live about 5 minutes away from the strip and I still make it down every now and then and still have a pretty good time but like I said it doesn't lose its glamour after a little while

I respect that you're one of the HONEST drivers out there, and I too will do the same. But unfortunately, since many drivers in Vegas are indeed longhauling, and you are expected to compete with their average and "make book", how do you rememdy that?

I just got back from Vegas and IT HAPPENED AGAIN! A $12.75 fare and I gave him $15 (reasonable) and he whines about it, then tells me to get the hell out of his cab when I tell him "Sry, I'm not rich." Was I too cheap? Attitude was WAY out of line!

Asked by Tim almost 13 years ago

I agree the attitude is WAY out of line, like I said before you are in no way obligated to tip a driver! The tip here is a little over 10% I myself would like to have more but I understand when it doesnt happen. You were definatly not to cheap if this happens again and it offends you call the taxi authority and report the driver!!
