More Cleaning Fees Scam
Saw this this morning -
As a driver, can I use an alias, a different name, instead of the real name? For safety.
This would most likely be after the background check with Uber, of course. Uber would be aware of what my … -
How do I only accept UberXL requests from users?
This reminds me of the unwritten bartender's rule that you never talk to the customers but you let them talk to you. If they have something to say, they will talk to you. If they want to be left alone, they do not. You can ask how they're doing but you don't pry.
Applies to all kinds of customer-facing professions.
Oh, most definitely yes.
Don't expect to get surge or any share of the upticked pricing.
I think they are defunct. I mean, they got bigger things to worry about with the Covid and everything than selling PlayStations in their cars.
As some other commenters mentioned, this goes both ways. There are crappy drivers and there are crappy passengers. We are all accountable and we need to protect ourselves.
Enclosed space thing I do empathize though. It feels helpless for sure. I am sure many other feel the same way. Uber's ridership is down by like a million percent.
That one falls under commonsense. Thank you.
Couldn't it basically just be regional? That's their differentiator.
I’d like to argue that people won’t be shooting drones for $10 pizzas, but you know what? I’m sure they would.
Drunk rednecks, drunk frat boys, and drunk people mad at trespassing drones. Plenty of peeps
The Uber Quiet Mode is here.

Love the humor from WashPo
Where do you draw the line when everyone is driving as an independent contractor? 5? 10? 20? 30? a week? It doesn't matter how many hours people are working, drivers are complaining because they aren't paid enough on an hourly basis.
Time to lower the driver pay. Just in time for the IPO!
Like an insurance policy?
So if I pay this amount, I can be big jerks to customers and I'd still have 5 stars? I don't have the urge to be a jerk, so I don't see the value in it.
On second though...I can also be bulletproof to real nasty riders and those who we all know will leave you bad ratings. This will also buy me the freedom to defend myself against and speak back at horrific riders. Ok, that may be worth something
Technically, any circumstances. We are not required to take anyone. We are independent contractors and no one can tell us what to do. (though, maybe not in CA anymore.)
I am not sure even if race, gender and religion can stop us from cherry picking rides.
Unbelievable.
I wasn't planning to work on Wednesday anyways, but I do make a point to not drive that day. I want to see what happens. It always feels good to stick it to the big guy.
Aren't they all pretty much on-demand already? Don't you just go to craigslist or something and you just call when you want them. "call girl"
I am sure there are apps for it.
LOL. Six stars!
Is that right? It takes that many?
Haaa Haa Haaa!!! Sorry, I know you went through a real crappy time but this is hilarious. I hope you can laugh about it now that it's over
He must be suffering from the case of "no clock icon."
