Buhay Iskeyts

A regular driver would usually earn up to 500.00php. depending on how assiduous he could be. If you also would want to rent a iskeyts you could either rent to those whom are in line or "nakapila" or to those whom are not or "riso". You could still save money if you choose the "riso" but remember to negotiate with them very well. The minimum amount for renting for those "nakapila" is 100.00php while for those "riso" is 80.00php or lower.

The main benefit that the driver of skeyts get from this is that they still have plenty passengers despite of having buses, jeepneys, taxi, etc. The regular fare in this kind of transportation is only 5.00php regardless woth your position while riding it, whether your seating or standing in the iskeyts for they are usually follow the rule "first come, first serve".
