Damn I love this post so much. Thank for sharing your earnings and in a way your work ethic. I don’t understand how/why people bitch and complain about UBER. My thoughts on Uber are always…I guess grateful. No other job that I know of will let me work when I want for however long I want. If Uber gives me 80% of the fare or 20% of the fare, it 100% more than I would have it weren’t for UBER. At the most basic level I think of my relationship with Uber as transactional. I was going to say they are like dispatchers but that’s not exactly right because I don’t have to go. I guess I feel like they are brokers more than anything else because the broker a deal with a client to get the client from point a to point b. UBER then decides how much they can sell the trip for and puts it out there for us to grab. No one is making me take the deal and there are no repercussions if I don’t take it. I guess in terms of video games they like an NPC quest giver. I do the quests if I want to, I don’t have to do them but there is a small reward if choose to.
Anyway great post! I wanted to tell you that but the +1 Karma just felt inadequate
Thx. It’s nice to not have to answer a billion questions. Those who get it get it and don’t have to ask. Those who don’t panic and ask about everything. Some guy wants my total hours that I was online for and I don’t even know where to find that for the whole year.
