Currently seeking drivers for Helen, Cleveland, Toccoa, Demorist, Coneillia, Johns Creek, Cumming, Buford and Dawson
Ok, here is the 411 on the Helen, Ga operation...
We are members of the chamber of commerce and the alpine helen convention and visitors bureau. Business is GOOD! Its so good that the one driver we have up there needs help!
This is where YOU come in!
We need someone to drive the business to new levels! We need someone who can manage and grow a business. Ever play monopoly or strategy games where you gather resources and build? Running a business is much like that! Make all those hours spent playin stragey games pay off in the real world!
Here is what we offer...
A team of proffessionals to help and guide you. A successful and established business founded on 4/1/2005. Taxi cab vehicles.
You will obtain a business license for a management group (you can do this simply by going down to your local tax revenue office, filling out some forms and paying a small fee). Here is your chance to start your own business!
With this license you will conduct management operations for the Helen Georgia Paddys Taxi division.
You will oversee one fulltime driver and yourself to start.
Day to day operations will include the successful completion of our lucrative medical transportation contracts. You will oversee the day to day operations to help the business grow into something much larger than what it is now by becoming a prominent member of the community, attending social events, networking with comunity leaders and aggressive sales techniques.
If you think you have what it takes and you have a clean record lets work together! Read the following text which is our standard hiring text. Browse the rest of the web site, and then if you are really serious, download, fill out, and fax your application.
So your probably here because you asked if we are hiring.
Lets set the record straight... we don't "employ" we "empower"!
what is "empower" you may ask, well the dictionary defines it as
1.) To invest with power, especially legal power or offical authority
2.) To equip or supply with an ability; enable
We do this on both counts, here is how:
1.) We invest with power, especially legal power or offical authority:
It is with constant daily struggle that we deal with local governments to insure that our vehicles, drivers and business operates within the law. Many local municpalities have stringent rules and regulations concerning taxis. We negotiate with these local municpalities so that you don't have to. We use our legal powers to obtain the offical authority to operate a taxi service.
We are the ONLY taxi company that can cut the mustard for Dahlonega. We are one of THREE that cut the mustard in Cumming. We also meet the requirments for Alpharetta.
Some of the areas we operate in require no special permitting other than standard business requirements. Even in these areas we exercise our legal powers and authority by maintaing a high proffesional standard and by joining prominent organizations such as the chamber of commerce and the vistors and convention beuro.
In all the counties we operate in, Fulton, Forsyth, Dawson, Lumpkin, and White counties, we are the taxi service that the 911 center calls!
count 2
2.) We equip or supply with an ability; enable
We equip people with taxis. Commercial heavy duty vehicles designed to be a taxi. Not some personal car converted into a taxi. A vehicle that rolled off the factory floor designed for heavy duty use as either a police vehicle, public transportation vehicle or as a taxi.
Many of our vehicles were in use with the government as emergency vehicles and we stay current with state permitting so that our vehicles are still desginated as emergency vehicles. Read flashing lights here.
With a superior vehicle than our competitors and a vehicle plainly marked as a taxi we enable people to have the ability to pick passengers right off the street.
We want you to succeed! We will help you find customers. We will supply you with a vehicle and a team of proffesionals to help you succeed!
here is what you must have to work with us:
1.) A business license. You can get this at your local adminstration facility. At most it will cost $100. You pick your business name. This is your chance to start your own business! Break out of the mold of working a "job". Be your own boss!
2.) A state tax I.D. number. As a business you will be required to pay all applicable taxes. This includes the 7% state sales tax.
3.) A current valid drivers license.
4.) A valid social security card.
5.) You must be drug free.
6.) You must have a clean criminal background. You will undergo background checks regularly.
7.) You must provide full coverage comercial insurance on your vehicle. If your really serious about this we will advise you where to get such coverage.
8.) You must lease or own your vehicle. Your vehicle must meet the requirements to be a taxi. We will lease you a vehicle or sell you a vehicle that meets these requirements if you like.
9.) You are responsible for generating your business by soliciting. We will help you find customers. You will be working with a team. Our network of proffesionals rely on each other to ensure our customers quick service. Its how we got to be twenty vehicles strong and the number one choice in five counties in just three short years.
If you think YOU can cut the mustard then scroll down to the bottom of the page and download both pages of the application, fill them out, and fax them back to us.
got a few changes to the pay structure....
lease a paddys taxi for $300 a week or 50 cents a mile
-or-
lease a cititaxi for $150 a week
paddys runs with $10 flag pull $4 mile in most areas
cititaxi runs $2.50 flag pull $2 mile
Paddy's caters to upscale customers and recieves dispatch
Cititaxi caters to those who can't afford the Paddy Taxi and recieves only dispatch generated by the driver
Do you have an outgoing personality?
Are you a lounge lizard or a couch potato?
Can you work unsupervised?
Given enough rope do you run with it or hang yourself?
Think you have what it takes to run a business?
People that have joined in with Paddy's taxi have stepped up to the big boy plate and purchased their own taxis and operate as owner operators with people working for them!
Don't work for the man! BE THE MAN! or the WOMAN!
"Our business comes from the curb" forget waiting around for dispatch! Get out on the curb and generate some business! You'll be surprised how easy it is. Visit your favorite clubs , talk to the bartenders and doormen, drop off cards, hang out and have fun!
Dispatch blows chunks anyway. Fickle Tickle customers often cancel the taxi before they even get off the phone with the initial conversation much less wait the 15 min or less it takes a taxi to get to them. You don't want to drive out into the country or a long distance just to find out you've gone for someone that would order a pizza and then leave.
This means we get out on the curb where the action is and hustle up some fares. You've got to be in the right place at the right time. You've got to have the knack or E.S.P.
Don't be thinking you want to be a taxi driver because you don't like to work. It's not like that. You have to put in long hours to be successful. You have to operate like a fireman. You have to "make hay when the sun shines". Don't be thinking your gonna take a "day off" when everyday is a "day off". No schedule! Set your own hours! Work when you want to and sleep when you want to. This works out great for us because the people that don't want to work usually don't and they don't last long with us.
People with drive and motivation succeed with us! We have drivers that have gone on to own two to five taxis of their own and they have people working for them. Nice to kick back and let others make the money for you!
Don't think you can just come jump in one of our taxis. The process takes time and you really need to have some outstanding qualifications.
By accessing the web site, downloading the app, filling it out and faxing it demonstrates the tech savy you need in this job.
We check your work history and references so if your a nevertheweld you can just stop right here and go find that job that you can slack off on until they catch on and you'll still have that first check!
If you can pass the tech test, and your work history and references pan out you will undergo an interview. Your grooming skills and appearance will be considered. Your effictiveness in communication will be examined.
If you pass the interview there will be drug test, criminal background checks (got a record? forget it), cpr and first aid certifications, motor vehicle record check.
Pass all that? You get a taxi!
