[11:48] transportation and this is the new i
[11:50] mean i don't know which news is better
[11:52] nobody fee the car the party i mean so
[11:55] many things happening here
[11:57] at agape transportation that's why i
[12:00] mean somebody asked you
[12:02] you invited somebody to drive for agape
[12:04] and they might what is it tell me
[12:07] something that attracted me to to agape
[12:10] whereas the treatment you can tell the
[12:11] treatment to the driver to which the
[12:13] drivers our our family our our kind that
[12:16] we don't want any driver to to to live
[12:19] agape not at all i mean we do all the
[12:22] possibility that how you can join up and
[12:24] stay in agape and the the the the
[12:27] earning the price 15 minimum
[12:30] no deduction on the on your income
[12:34] a a fifteen dollar job is a fifteen
[12:36] dollar for your pocket a 70 job is 70
[12:40] for your pocket and also no bay fee is
[12:43] accumulated in these two months at least
[12:45] and the third and most important part is
[12:48] the safety the safetyness you experiment
[12:51] with our customer i mean
[12:54] you're working on the street i mean i've
[12:56] been i was driving for
[12:58] over 25-30 years driving in new york
[13:00] city i dropped a liberty cab yellow cab
[13:04] black car for for g or 12 years and i
[13:07] know what did you expose on the street
[13:10] now
[13:11] with the kind of transportation with
[13:13] that we specialize on non-emergency
[13:15] transportation so that what that what
[13:17] what that means is that we take uh
[13:20] patients
[13:21] our our members our insurance members we
[13:24] take them to their medical appointment
[13:27] it could be a flu shot could be you know
[13:29] anything so we can take those so those
[13:32] customers are pre-screened
[13:35] by by the insurance first and then for
[13:37] us we know we have all the detail for
[13:40] every customer that we dispatch on our
[13:42] system
[13:43] so it's safe because of that
[13:46] you won't have any problem with our
[13:48] customer like like you know otherwise in
[13:51] ins and and then and when you when you
[13:53] do cash when you do credit card
[13:56] you you don't know what to expect over
[13:58] there so i i guess that's one of the
[14:00] reason the main reason why we have so
[14:02] many ladies female drivers in our fleet
[14:06] because they they they feel
[14:08] safe in driving with agape so that's the
[14:12] thing that the availability of jobs as
[14:15] many as you could finish a day without
[14:17] we have availability
[14:19] and the the pricing on the on on the
[14:22] jobs
[14:23] and the safetyness do you experiment in
[14:26] in agape i mean three main topics why
[14:29] you should be here
[14:30] we have drivers that have
[14:32] they have six months
[14:34] three years
[14:35] five years 10 years driving with agape
[14:39] and they we have many many drivers that
[14:41] they don't know any other company we
[14:43] have drivers that they
[14:45] drop for three different companies and
[14:47] they realize that they don't need to
[14:49] have three tablets on their car to make
[14:52] money that day you only need
[14:54] agape tablets agape agape system for you
[14:58] to make money the last year we have a
[15:01] couple of drivers that overpass 100 000
[15:05] in in last year it was a very bad year
[15:08] at least two drivers made over 100
[15:11] thousand we can prove that
[15:12] i mean of course we're not gonna show
[15:14] you which driver but that's the kind of
[15:17] money the driver are making here in
[15:19] agape i mean i
[15:21] minimum 15 average per trip 26
[15:26] i i don't i don't i don't know anybody
[15:28] that can assure you the average per trip
[15:31] 26 average
[15:34] and availability for all the job you can
[15:36] do all the time you can work 10 hours 12
[15:39] hours you name it we have enough jobs
[15:42] for you so
[15:44] those three things don't attract you but
[15:47] try try agape thank you for sharing this
