   6 years ago in  Should I warn my insurance company I drive for Uber? I feel like maybe I shouldn't.

  A man after my own heart.  I totally agree with your point on how an Uber app is just a tool to bring people together, and, after it has done that, it's just me personally giving this person a ride.

   6 years ago in  If you were the new CEO of Uber, with absolute power, what would be the first thing you'd change?

  Stop being a bunch of douchebags.  Diversify, hire women, start letting creative juices flying through the workforce, create a sense of community, etc. etc. 

  Stop with the old boy's club.  Stop with the shady practices.

   6 years ago in  Does anyone know how to get rid of the annoying Visa ad in the Uber app

  It resminds me of the Refer Your Friend popups that we always used to get.   Then there was the Amex ones.  Save 5% or whatever.  Then I saw UberEats for a little while.   I also remember pages plastered with "Become a driver and make $1500."

  Oh, I just checked and I see Jimmy John's 10% for using VISA.  I don't even know if there is a Jimmy John's around here.  Come on, Uber.

   6 years ago in  San Francisco on the move. Uber to provide healthcare...to "employees"?

  That's a great point you make here.  If the drivers become employees, they'd all flock to Uber because of their market penetration.  No more free market and competeition.  Uber will be able to set their own prices and do whatever they want.

  I mean, taxi drivers aren't employees in most cities either. So what the heck is going on here?

  Lyft is getting desperate to keep the image of being "more friendly than Uber."  Taking a beating recently.

  I do want to hear more about the conflict resolution ideas Uber will put into place. I sure they dont plan on pushing liability to the drivers claiming they are independent contractors. 

  Cleaning and insurance will be a huge hurdle.

  It already is.  McDonald's aren't restaurants.  I guess they do serve food. and has a place to sit.

  You know...I was going to point out your douchebaggery but with taxis and limos present in every market, I am not sure why I'd need another comapny to call for a ride.  The secret sauce may be in the fact they cater to the older generation?

   6 years ago in  Have you ever been recorded inside an Uber and a taxi?

  Yeah, but being recorded is a whole another story.  Your words can be used against you and who knows what the drivers may do with it.

  Think a celebrity.  I am sure the drivers can sell that to TMZ or something too.  It pisses me off.

   6 years ago in  Is Uber Eats worth it for restaurants while paying 30% commissions?

  It drums up the business as it is a new channel to gain customers.  It isn't shabby to have Uber promoting your restaurant.  

  See, our business spends a good chunk of change on advertisements and marketing.  So that will play into doing the math.

  Uber allows the restaurants to charge whatever we want, so we can assure we make profit.

   6 years ago in  Lyft says its revenue is growing 3x faster than Uber's

  But is Lyft investing in the future? What is their positioning with autonomous vehicles?  Maybe they are fighting hard to capture marketshare for a market that'll be left in the dust when the robotaxis start roaming.

  Uber invests heavily in AVs. I think they have their sights set on the future.  Not this current job where they lost craploads of money while fighting legal issues with drivers and cities every day.
