  Taxi fares were mostly much higher and people paid them. We are underpaid. Uber is so cheap.

  And that's why the average person should not be buying stocks individually, ever. Too much goes on that the average person doesn't understand. Hell even fund managers can't beat the market consistently.

   4 years ago in  Would you want to be an employee of Uber & Lyft? The CA Bill AB5 may make you an employee!

  As employees you will see they will control us. Tell us when we can and can't work. Tell us where to work. We'll each have a boss. Do you want a boss? Do you want to have to explain yourself to the midwest regional driver manager when you don't show up for work one day?

  The grass is always greener... Something needs to change but AB5 is not the answer.

   4 years ago in  Social media campaign against Lyft! "Take back the Ride". Lyft is following Ubers bad habits. Women are pushing back.

  At this point none of this matters. Both companies are public. The only thing that matters is profit from now on. This issue will only matter as far as it affects profit. That's just a simple PR issue. They'll work around it.

   4 years ago in  How Lyft lost the trust of #DeleteUber women who thought it was ‘woke’

  More:

  Women who say they experienced sexual harassment in a Lyft describe an interaction that left them feeling unheard by a faceless entity when they complained to the company of situations that made them feel uncomfortable or even in danger.

  The women said their complaints were initially routed to a chat app — powered by artificial intelligence and not a real human. To find the safety hotline number, customers had to exit the app and manually search for the hotline number.

  Jeesh. That's terrible.

  Amazon makes most of their money on AWS. That is cloud computing services. And they sell a metric butt ton of products. I don't know what "The Amazon of Transportation" means. Will they be profitable ever? Who knows. Maybe if they get into a different game, like amazon did with AWS. Ridesharing industry itself is cutthroat.
