ayam been thinking to do part time grab

last time ayam done uber

looking now har, seems like many requirements needed for grab. need all the PSV license, puspakom etc etc.

for those doing part time, is it worth it to you? now ayam need attend PSV licence training but thinking if it is worth all the trouble to do so since not gonna do it full time.

any side income to the main income is a good thing provided it does not harm anything else.

I did up to the 4W tests in grab. just left the PSV n all the other requirement.

however i'm not having much time to spare . wonder if its worth all the hassle. asking sifus here 1st.


last time during uber it was easy . just register in app and can start take passengers already. but that was a long time ago .

Good if fewer people join grab, it’ll teach grab not to be too greedy with the commissions.

that pretty normal SOP for grab, u know they are strict on these

if u talking about sat and sun work, be my guest

at least 1 day u can get 100-200-300-400 then minus some petrol, change engine oil, tyre and food cause u need eat to continue your work then net profit around 10% or 15% or 20% from your income

u also need to keep your car clean and tidy so your guest wont feel so dirty

then u need have good eye during night time cause many boomer and OG boomer have bad eye sight after their 40-45 age

then during festival period, u face traffic, complaint, cancel ride etc etc and u will need a fb group to avoid traffic jam period ( right now home expo , velocity area going to be jam as hell and if u happen to take these order, try to cancel it because if one job u work around 2-3 hours, u loss a lot potential income, normally 1 hour ppl can done 2-3 ride which is around RM40-RM90 )

then u see a lot taxi wait at KLIA TBS , luring customer , these one ride can earn rm50-100 iirc

then repeat these 365 days , 80 years . then go health check up then see your lung, eye, kidney not working well

yup no pain no gain

Go join those Grab driver Facebook groups.

Nowadays got RM3+ fare including pick up distance. Is it worth it?

Grab is only worth it during peak hours when there's Surge or Grab pays incentives. Outside of those hours you are doing charity.

E-hailing insurance also very expensive now. Last time my insurance provider only charge extra RM150 or so but now it's RM300+ or RM400+.

Reminded me of good old days when Uber started here. Very generous sign up offer for users

Not many drivers that time so when I order Uber I can be assigned same driver every few days.

Still remember a driver (forgot his name though). His oyen Myvi already clocked >300,000 km mileage and he occasionally do gig job bringing stuffs into SG. And he's doing all these while still holding a full time job in Majlis Bandaraya. Amazing
