If cab drivers are only needed at night time and on weekends, maybe it needs to be considered a part-time job. It seems like a waste of gas and resources for a cab driver to be driving around half the week just so he can say he has a full-time job.
Knowing that they don't have to work the full week might even make them more efficient. If I know that I'm going to only be working on Fridays-Saturday (and probably make the majority of my pay then anyway), I'm going to find something else to do Sunday to Thursday.

Sorry Bunk, but this is what I don't understand either.
When I have 10 people at my work who say they cannot work on certain days of the week, I start hiring more people.
One of two things happen - people magically become available on those days I was hiring for, because when I start adding bodies it reduces the total number of hours those people were getting.
Or, they do not open up their availability and someone takes a large chunk of their hours.
You may find those day only cabbies (specifically the ones who own their own car), are more open to working nights.
