Chafirete / Chafirete is a pejorative used in Mexico and some other Latin American countries to nominate the driver carrying passengers, which handles car, van or truck for others, not for transport only itself. If driver or chauffeur, come from the old driver and this French chauffeur, and if we know that diminutives and derogatory in this language can be made with the use of the ette suffix, used in France and on the eastern coast of Spain and the Balearic Islands by what chaufferette has become conductorcillo, we may conclude that chafirete could have been born to discredit or disparage a chauffeur, to mock or make it less, and now anyone who will give a job that requires low qualification is called Chinese.
