  Interesting read on BI. What do you notice first? I would say just general appearance - is that shallow?

   5 months ago in  Lyft stopped showing detailed passenger receipts to drivers. Why? What are they trying to hide?

  These companies have tried to hide their bottom line since day 1, doesn't surprise me.

   9 months ago in  Lyft just reduced DF (destination filter) from 6 to 2, do you care?

  The destination filters are becoming a joke. It was a great idea when they first introduced them and really helped drivers in a number of ways but now everything with these companies is getting too limited to make any impact on our schedules.

   9 months ago in  Nomad Rides, the driver keeps 100% of the fares! Take a look, this is not a promotional article!

  I didnt read the article so I don't have much to stand on but I have seen so many companies promise this before and fail. I am not holding my breath.

   1 year ago in  Uber Black/SUV Drivers - Thoughts on the new quiet mode?

  I agree with Momof4, the new preferences are all basic things that any decent driver should no within the first few seconds of the driver anyways. Always help with luggage, ask how they are and take your cues on whether they want to talk of not, play "bland music" like jack johnson, keep the car comfortable temperature wise (always air on the colder side instead of warm ) and you will be good to go!

  oh strange. So it is a way for them to hide what the customers are really paying so they can get away with lower bonuses paid out to the driver?

  I was looking for work and it had the lowest barrier of entry. Just pop in my car and drive. I don't mind driving but I am not one of those that loves it either, it is truly just a way to make money.

   1 year ago in  Sting on Uber drivers picking up street hails

  Right, we all know NOT to pick up street hails but if someone is offering you twice the fare amount it is hard to say no. I know many drivers who now personally know some of their frequent riders and they get paid on the side. It might not be right, but drivers have to do what drivers have to do to make a living wage.
