Discount Cab Worker exploitation at its worst Tucson Arizona

If you decide to drive a cab for Discount, you must sign a contract which includes the following:

"LESSEE acknowledges that COMPANY has not made any representation as to whether or not LESSEE'S operation of the vehicle will be profitable. LESSEE further acknowledges COMPANY has warned LESSEE that LESSEE may not make a profit by the operation of the vehicle. "

This clause in the contract covers their butt when making decisions that ONLY benefit the company and not the driver. Discount has now gone to having a training class EVERY DAY. They flood the streets with cabs. This way they make more money but drivers make less money. A further benefit for them is better service they provide to to the dial-a-ride AHCCS(state of Arizona welfare system) disabled people(which make up 75% of Discount's taxi business). Discount will make $5-6 million per year from this AHCCS contract and pay the drivers(who do all the hard work) about $300.000 TOTAL.
Do yourself a favor. Don't drive for Discount Cab. It's a scam. They will exploit anybody who walks through the door.

There's a reason they've gone through over 4,000 drivers in the 22 years they've been in business here in Tucson.  They don't care about drivers.  Yes it as as simple as that.  You've been warned.
