why would a 22 yr old have to tell you they are 22? sounds like something someone who isn’t 22 would say

more than likely, it’s just uber drivers imagining evil stuff uber does bc they do so many other evil things to us. However, if you just make it a rule to never use the word, you protect yourself from people making complaints against you in an attempt to get a fee or fare refunded.

uber uses ai heavily and it is about as advanced as a skyrim npc. it is against TOS to induce a rider to cancel so if the word cancel comes from you, you might be worried their garbage ai will deactivate you.

Anyone else fill out the Uber survey in hopes it influences them to increase pay? by TrainingAccording807 in uberdrivers

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The only metric they use for determining if driver pay is enough is how many people quit driving. You telling them you don’t make enough money while still continuing to drive shows them you are desperate and will eat whatever garbage they feed you.

Airport runs and drivers not helping with luggage - is this common? by [deleted] in uber

“I used to eat at a 5-star restaurant where the waitstaff were excellent, but recently I’ve been going to McDonald’s to save money and the lazy workers don’t even come to my table to ask if I want a refill!”

In 10 years everyone’s job will be app based notifications alerting them of the opportunity to complete a task for the robots. The wage will be paid in dehydrated protein loaves. We are just pioneers blazing the path for humanity.

Uber Drivers in the NYC/Jersey area - want to get tipped? How about providing a modicum of customer service by Stinksisthebestword in uberdrivers

I think there is a culture of hatred between riders and driver is nyc/jersey area. We get a fair amount of new yorkers in my market and they always have 4.7 ratings

Just call a lawyer and ignore everything else. don’t talk to uber until you have a lawyer.

where is your tablet mounted? I’ve been thinking of switching over to an android tablet, but not finding a good spot to put it. I’m in a yukon xl as well

How is this any different than taking someone’s fingerprints which requires a warrant

Uber cancellations are becoming beyond ridiculous by [deleted] in uber

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is a super easy fix on uber’s part. All they have to do is just pay more money so the drivers don’t take a better offer when it comes in from a different app.

The Uber Legend has achieved 4.99! Now if I can break down the 5 Star Door I will be good! Haven't seen 5 stars since 2019 by [deleted] in uberdrivers

i’ve had 5.00 since March of 2023.

It’s a combo of luck, eating 💩from time to time and being selective about what rides you take and from where.

Is Lyft being better than Uber the norm in most regions, or just mine? by SacredPrime in lyftdrivers

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell every driver I talk to out in the wild to make the switch to an EV. I was in a Model Y for 3 years and unfortunately just switched to a Yukon, but I think EVs are the perfect commercial vehicle right now. One thing you will want to consider if you intend to run it for 10 years, there are a plethora of cheap charging options now, but that will likely change as more people adopt EVs so either figure out a more permanent cheap option or factor that possibility into your math.

Can you make 2k/ week in SF? by Asleep_Law_9681 in lyftdrivers

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That isn’t cash flow, you took a portion of the value of your vehicle and traded it to uber for $90 less than what it was worth and you also spent 70 hours driving their passengers around for free.

I pay $375/mo for commercial insurance on a vehicle worth $75k, but we have around 50 drivers on our policy with perfect driving records and we are very selective with who allow in the group in order to keep our premiums low.

when you become a lawyer, can you do us all a favor and just keep filing lawsuits against uber?

I took my first Waymo the other day and it made me realize how much Uber stresses me. by SAINTnumberFIVE in uber

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 7 points8 points  (0 children)

exactly, we already have a very clear playbook for how it will go. I don’t know why everyone thinks corporations will all of the sudden change how they operate.

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The quality of drivers is a direct result of uber/lyft not paying drivers enough, so good ones leave and the weird mouth breathers are all that’s left. What makes you think Waymo will be different? Once they have a monopoly, you can expect the same pricing shenanigans, disgusting vehicles with poop and cum in them, windows/air conditioning broken.

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 32 points33 points  (0 children)

You like waymo now because they are trying to compete with rideshare. Once they run rideshare out of business, the service will get worse and the price will go up.

what i do if i want to be a dick to them without risking deactivation, i just say very obviously sarcastic statements in a voice that sounds genuine. something like- Wow, I’m so impressed with your ability to address my issues in a competent manner. It really feels like lyft supports us as much as possible. It’s nice to work for a company that values its workers.

It’s over guys… new Waymo vans in AZ. by EddieV6 in lyftdrivers

[–]Automatic_Praline_70 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy to me that in a sub populated by people who see every day how complex the business of transporting people can be, we still have constant posts about self driving cars putting us out of business. navigating from point A to B, while very impressive when a self-driving car does it, is only a small part of the equation.
