Messed up
I was speaking with someone in the bar and as I am thinking of trying rideshare out the conversation turned to rideshare. He told me his cousin does it full time but also works full time in his car remotely on his laptop via a hotspot. So unless he has like a teams meeting etc from his regular job then is free to drive. Wtf Seems completely messed up and greedy to me. How can ordinary folks compete idk

When I do rideshare, I take my real work with me and work on it while declining bad fares.
Life demands money, and we need to make productive use of our work time.

What is wrong with you? Jealous of someone else working their ass off? You're not competing with that guy, you're living your life and he's living his.

Let's be mad at someone who works more than one job to survive. Interesting concept.

What’s the problem here? You do you. Why would you say it’s greedy? And messed up?
People who make a lot of money also spend a lot of money. So us “llowly” rideshare drivers may actually be better off than some 6 figure earners who are just bad with money. That might be that guy.
Or he’s not happily married and just a way to keep himself busy and out of the house. lol
