Worsening Economy means Better Cab Drivers!

When the economy is going Gang Busters the pool of available cab drivers simply sucks.

There is no 'candy coating' way of putting this inescapable fact.

It's hard enough in Frederick Maryland to get good drivers to want to work the hours a 24/7/365 taxicab company works...

Imagine how hard it used to be to get competent drivers to take affluent people to BWI or other Washington area airports.

It's worse for Montgomery County Maryland's available conscientious cab drivers.
Just look at some statistics for Montgomery County Maryland employment:


Labor Force 521,156
Employment 507,537
Unemployment 13,619
Unemployment Rate 2.6%
Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2007.

Now that the market is so volatile, more blue collar people will be looking for some extra security, fearing the loss of their main job perhaps.

What better part time job than to drive a cab?

The folks that are frequent business flyers are, let's face it, in the upper echelons of the salary levels possible in the US.

Business owners, entrepreneurs and high powered executives learn to live on twice a month paychecks (some even get paid ONCE a month). This is totally unheard of and completely unacceptable to the workforce that earns less than $20,000 a year.

High Rolling employers (can we say Oligarchy?) dismiss lower level employees as 'they did this to themselves', '...shoulda went to college like me'

Want a clue to fill your companies help wanted ranks?

Pay every day, at least do away with the 'two weeks till you draw a check'
and don't even start on the 'bi monthly pay' because you've got to pay the accountant half as often bit...

Please


Want good people?

pay more often

Cab Drivers get paid every day...

and this is only going to help the airport transportation industry. The worse the economy gets, the more quality drivers apply.

the Dispatcher at Frederick Airport Transportation

Is it reasonable to expect curteousy when you call a local Frederick Business to inquire about services?

Of course it is.

Do you get that often?

Not likley.

If you call City Cab Company in Frederick Maryland

Who answers the phone (most of the time, they are open 24/7/365)

Stanley Cole does.

Stanley is the most helpful, courteous, effective dispatcher I've known in the 26 years I've been in the transportation business.

Since Blaine Young became a part of City Cab about a year ago.

Stanley has had ZERO complaints called in about being rude or contentious remarks

Drivers prefer to have Stanley divide up the work

You get more with Honey than you do with Vinegar

What usually happens when you call some other (un named) Taxi company in either Montgomery county or Frederick county?

Swift Reliable Courteous Service is what you get when you need a Taxi TO or FROM BWI Airport and call 301 662-2250
