   6 years ago in  Is there a dress code for Uber and Lyft drivers? What have you seen them wear?

  Yeah, I don't give a hoot what they wear.  To be honest, I don't even pay attention.  They sit up front, and I mean..I just see the back of his head.

  When I think about it though, I think most drivers do dress nice.  Hey, I guess paying respect and being proud of the job is a good thing.

   6 years ago in  What are some Uber driver tricks? Are they scam? I heard there's a bunch.

  Asking for the destination and cancelling (but only after arrival)

  Here's one trick I heard from a driver but I am not sure if it's true.  The driver would call you to ask you for the destination in order to determine if he wants to take a ride or not.  e.g. Is it long enough to make it worth it?  Then if they deem it unworthy, they would actually arrive, not text you, wait a few minutes and then cancel.

  Apparently, if you cancel after you arrive, and waited x minutes, they won't be penalized in the eyes of Uber.  Messed up.  and the rider cannot leave them a bad review either, because the ride hasn't occured.  Messed up, right?

   6 years ago in  Seattle Uber drivers had a union??

  Isn't Seattle the city it was heavily debated whether the Uber drivers were independent contractor or employees?  I think the city argued for them being an employee, so I bet the drivers took advantage of it.

   6 years ago in  Can I contact my Uber and Lyft driver after the ride is over?

  Wait, now I am intrigued.  Are you trying to contact the driver for other reasons, say because you found him (or her) attractive? Slightly creepy, but I am sure that happens.

  Definitely buy a dashcam. Get the kind that swivels and you can point it towards the cabin. People behave better when they know they're being recorded.

  I think you just created a new business. Uber for Car Repairs. Genius!!

  I'm sure if the driver is okay with it and you pay the driver for his or her trouble, it's totally ok.

   6 years ago in  Lots of Driver Scams - Watch out, passengers!

  This cannot be true either.  

  The game of cancellation chicken

  This typically happens around airports, where drivers will sit in the cell phone area or short-term parking with their app on. You call a ride and the car looks like it’s RIGHT THERE, but it doesn’t move. Five minutes later, it’s still there, so you call to see what’s up, and nobody answers. Then you get a text saying “I’ll be there in three minutes!” Three minutes later, no car. You cancel, and get assessed a $5 fee. The driver repeats the process all day while listening to soccer.

   6 years ago in  Why isn't Juno dominating?

  Let's assume that there are more and more drivers using Juno (for reasons you gave).  the question is whether that turns into more ridership.  Do consumers care if the drivers are happier?   ...or do they really not care that much?  Perhaps they want incentives on their own?  I don't know the answer to that.  I would like to think I care about the livelihood of drivers, but at the end of the day, I think most people lean on what directly affects them like wait time, price, etc..  again, I am not sure.

  Brand loyalty?  I don't think that exists in this industry.  Drivers just want more fares and make money.  Riders just want to get from point A to point B.  I think there is consideration for safety and quality of service, but I feel like convenience outweighs everything else.
