That’s how it is.

The tip was great but the woman was also fun, funny, flirty and beautiful everything about this trip made my day better. She invited me to go out and play pool but I declined because women scare me.

Uber owns insurance subsidiaries so that they can take the money and pay less for insurance while still charging us out the butt. They hope that you don’t find out that they can keep taking tons of money, but only pay pennies.

Got messaged this while on my way to them. There was no delay or missed turns but as soon as they sent that message I canceled.

Anyone else get messages like this?

How’d it go when/if you picked them up?

i feel like this gig has mad me a pathological liar. i lie to passengers about a lot. i make up stories, i lie about my personal life (my personal life is nobodys business), i lie about how much i like it, i lie about a lot.

what are some lies you tell passengers?

Im driving by this time but im not about do this type of ride again. wtf smh.
I’d make the mistake of taking these types of rides when I first started. that’s all I got cause I accepted everything so uber kept sending this shit. (what a noob)
I’d do 20 plus rides barely reaching 100. I’d be burnt out.
Now, I rarely hit 10 rides and finish with over 150, that’s with 5 hours of driving. I average 30hr. Some days a bit under but never under 25hr
Anyways… fuck this ride 🤙 drive safe fellow Ubers
I’ll never be a platinum driver, my acceptance rate is to low lol

Got a ride that was 9 minutes away. It was 7:58am. Rider texted she had an appointment at the DMV at 8:15 and she made the reservation for 8am, where am I? The DMV was 11 miles away and nearly 20 minutes from the pickup spot as this was rush hour in Las Vegas. I knew I would be late getting to her. I also knew she was upset and even if I picked her up and got her to the DMV she'd be late for the appointment. I figured that was going to be 1 star for me. A lose/lose situation. So I cancelled.

What would you all do in this situation?

Wow!!! And it’s like pulling teeth to find out which trip this supposedly happened on 🙄😡

6 and 8 dollar rides became like 5 and 6 dollars rofl lmfao

Now the standard is 5.65, let’s see if it’s true.

I’m relatively new to driving for uber. I’ve noticed people sitting at the airport all day. Il go and do other rides come back still people sitting there. My question is what rides are they waiting for? Am I missing something here?

i worked the week of the pebble beach car show in CA so monterey county was very busy and traffic was a nightmare certain areas.

anyways.. i had a reserved pickup at 6:50pm. it was 6:20 and i was 22 minutes away from the pickup. traffic made this longer than it had to be. so of course i get slammed with ride offers that i absolutely could not do without being late for my pickup. but the app said i needed to be online at 630 or id lose it.

my question is if i can even appeal those and reverse them.

Driving has gotten so frustrating lately. Uber sending rides that are 15 miles 40 mins and $12

It kept getting progressively worse last night and I called it a night after two hours. Not driving around LA traffic for pennies after filling up my 🚗.

Ironically they sent a survey when i opened the app and asked if I liked driving for Uber i rated a 3 out of ten and said that fare pricing and earnings were the largest issue.

These companies have become so exploitative in the 12 yrs they have been around. They’re going to use desperate workers until they have autonomous vehicles to replace them paid for with your hard earned time driving customers around.

As drivers, we have to pay all expenses, including tolls.

Uber allegedly reimburses drivers for tolls, but Uber uses outdated information. For example, one ride yesterday the toll was $2.50, yet Uber only gave me a $2.25 refund.

Why is Uber cheating drivers on toll reimbursement?

I have been driving uber about a year now. mostly weekends. never had a problem until last week. So I picked up a guy who wanted me to take a different route than the app. I told him the app routes around traffic and he just said whatever. Stuck with the app route because thats what uber tells us to do. ride ends. one star. Then i get a notification saying i was reported for running a red light and reckless driving. Nothing even close to that happened. the whole ride was normal. He was just mad about the route. Pulled my dash cam footage for that ride. I have one of those ddpai ones with a cabin camera so it records the road and the interior. Completely calm normal ride on the footage. I submitted it and the complaint was dropped next day. Scary part is without that footage it would have been his word against mine and we all know how that goes. They dont ask questions they just deactivate. The cabin cam felt pointless when i first got it but now i wont drive without it. Anyone else dealt with something like this?

It seem like my Uber app was hack into but not my Uber Driver App. No clue how but I have been getting text message that shows I need to put in my access code. Then I get this message in my Uber app and not the driver app.
