   6 years ago in  What is a reasonable tip for a 15 minute food pit stop?

  $0.16/minute, but that's $9.60 an hour for sitting and doing nothing.  That ain't bad, right?  Plus tip.  The poster is willing to give you free money.

   6 years ago in  If drivers are really losing money with Uber then why do you keep driving for Uber?

  You have it mistaken.  What you are looking for is living wage.  not minimum wage.

  Difference?  I forgot.  LOL.  It's like how it's calculated.  I can't even tell you which one is higher.

  I will commend Uber for how the tip go on the same credit card and they automatically consolidate the receipts from two transactions.  Super helpful so the business users don't have to submit two expenses.

  Just to add fuel to your guilt, here's a picture of a man who killed himself because of Uber.  

  Doug Schifter, a New York livery driver, said he killed himself to illuminate how ride hailing services have devastated taxi workers financially.

   6 years ago in  Uber wants to be able to detect if you are drunk BEFORE they match you with a driver.

  I agree but they won't.  Uber doesn't make any money by implementing this.  

  Or course that's until this becomes a huge problem.  Ironically though, I don't think it will. Not sure if dunks wanna work be Ubering...

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

  Didn't we go through this whole fiasco once with eBay where people started selling P2P style?  Are sellers responsible for collecting taxes for example.

  The answer is basically that if you are running a business, business rules and regulations apply.

   6 years ago in  Is it true that Uber no longer deactivates drivers for having low ratings?

  There is a different standard in every city.  In markets where Uber is struggling to meet the driver count they will ease up on the rating requirements.  That's why 4.60 is just a guideline.

  So if Uber is doing bad in your city, sure, I bet they don't deactivate you for doing anything.

   6 years ago in  Scam? I requested a Lyft the other day, and the driver saw me, and drove away. The app registered that he had "arrived" and I was charged a "no show" fee.

  Yeah, this is actually a thing.

  Drivers do this when they don't like you.  Some drivers mentioned in this thread that for annoying customers whom they plan to cancel, they would drive by and see if they can get a no-show fee.

  My driver told me he gets lots of texts from people telling him to hurry up (upon pickup). Is this really true?
