Can you help this driver get his mojo back?
A couple weekends ago, we met up with a very frustrated pedicab driver on a busy Friday evening. The last few times he was out he really struggled to get rides while everyone else was rockin' and rollin'. He wanted a discount on his rent because he wasn't doing well.
He'd been pedicabbing off and on for almost a year, but hadn't been out regularly in recent months. Whenever he did ride, he complained about the condition of the cab he was riding, pointing out every little squeek and rattle. When he first started driving he rocked, but it seemed he'd lost his mojo. Some new bills at home and fewer hours at his regular job made him more desparate to make money on his pedicab. It seemed the harder he tried, the fewer rides he got.
What would you do with this driver? What would you tell him? Would you give him a discount? Have you had a similar experience? Can you help him get his mojo back?
I'll tell you what we did later on, but first I want your opinion. Please click on comments below and tell us how you would solve this mojo dilemma.

hello fellow cab drivers, as off and on driver for over a year, one thing im sure about is that riding is a game of streaks. when your on your on and vice versa. If this was me, as hard as it sounds, id do everything different that i could control(change your cloths, your hair, your hot spots and your approach and see what happens) otherwise work twice as long, so im curious, what did you guys do?
