  Uber and Lyft could have shown some love (if they were sincere)

  Uber and Lyft and lots of rich folks will get richer with their respective IPOs. These two companies could have …

   5 years ago in  Do Poorer People Tip More than the Rich?

  It is not always the p/u point; sometimes the destination. 99.5% of people who live in economically depressed areas are not millionaires.

   5 years ago in  Do Poorer People Tip More than the Rich?

  While I try to always appreciate what I have by remembering/trying not to be judgmental (mentally; I never say such things to riders/customers), I have noticed the less affluent can and do tip more than the  affluent. I actually got into this gig not expecting tips, so they are really sweet when I do receive them, and I have been wowed when the less affluent tip me. Maybe that's a sign of some preconceived ideas, but it always reiterates to remain humble and continue to be respectful.

  Not to hijack this thread, but I always wonder about the riders who make it a point to say they'll tip me thru the app. I always wonder if that's their way of hoping I will give a good rating. If so, it doesn't matter to me if they tip me a $100. If they're a jerk, then I rate them accordingly.

   5 years ago in  I am a Uber driver, Where I can see the customer ‘s review ?

  The customer's rating is not what the o p asked. He asked about the "review", which I interpret as the rider's review of the driver/experience. Op  might want to do clarify, but if I am correct, the driver cannot read any particular rider's review/rating.

   5 years ago in  What type of transport

  "Usually? " I am pretty sure the " larger car" is mandatory for the mentioned levels of service.  Also, you are giving preferential treatment to Uber. Doesn't Lyft offer similar services?  On a related note, I don't know how drivers in small cars pick up some fares similar to one described. I did a lot of research to buy my 2nd rideshare car and bought a midsize in hopes of accommodating most airport runs in basic services. I have been amazed of what people expect to get in basic fare. Think people to/from 2nd/3rd world countries, each one carrying one or more giant suitcases.  A prius owner couldn't do it. 🤔
