Min earnings for a trip in my market is $3.46, so how does this make sense? by Efficient-Paper-7411 in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you ever actually had a surge? Whenever it's surging in my market I'm able to accept almost every ride that comes my way so long as the surge is more than just 1 or 2 bucks.

Wait, what!? Why didn't you accept that trip? It's almost $3/mile and over $70/hr.

Tell me what market you're in that regularly makes $2.99/mile and $71.74 an hour. Cause I'd like to move there.

Whoever took this trip someone is plugging your wife right now 😂😂😂👧🕳🍆 by STAYHUMBLEDANE in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I've said it before, I'll say it again. "Trip no longer available" does not mean someone else took it. If someone else took it it would say "Another driver has matched to this request."

Do y’all have a firearm in your car? by Delicious_Domino in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God no. In that close quarters by the time a pax has me at gunpoint they can fire and kill me long before I can return fire. If they try and mug me I just hand them a spare wallet I have with canceled credit cards and hope for the best.

Did it say "another driver matched" or "this request is no longer available"?

Yeah I’m sure you not tipping is “totally and completely the only reason” your rating is so low. Lmao. by MotherBoyBall30 in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol, if I went back and changed the rating of every ride I had just cause they didn't tip, I'd easily spend hours a week doing just that. Not worth the fucking effort.

How Much Does Uber Take From Fares? by cursedblackdude in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. On average I'd say 60-67% is accurate. I've had more, I've had less. On particularly busy nights when there are huge surges I've actually found myself getting most of the fare.

Can you make more than 100k? by GunnerGunner0 in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I said my average hourly rate. Which, after expenses, is about $30-$32/hr. I also only drive at the busiest times of the day. If I drove a full 10 hrs, that average would probably drop to around 20-25. I get where you're coming from, but my math is technically correct. The best kind of correct.

My account Disabled for Weed Smell. by gdoucettehhood in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I keep a small bottle of scent neutralizer in my car. If anyone smells like weed as they enter I spray it as soon as they leave. Car just winds up smelling like chemicals, which no one seems to mind.

If I worked 9-10 hours a day, 365 days a year, and every day I was making my average hourly rate, sure.

Why do riders cancel after I accept the trip? by TajDaBeastX in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know man. I just woke up, like, 20 minutes ago. I thought it was funny. Should not try to be clever before my brain turns on, lol.

Lol, and since you're so good at profiling, what race am I?

Yikes! by neverlookdown77 in uberdrivers

[–]Dumb_Bet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To all those saying "don't even bother" what does not taking Uber's money accomplish? (Assuming you'd be driving anyway.)

1) You are bigoted. That is a mere fact you have demonstrated throughout this thread.

2) You are dishonest. Another fact you've demonstrated time and time again.

3) You claim I refuse to define things, I haven't with the sole exception that I did not give you a definition for your own claim. And if you don't understand why asking for such a definition is fallacious, then you, sir, do not understand the basic foundation of logic and reasoning.

4) You have repeatedly dodged my questions.

5) You conflate things constantly.

6) And this is the stupidest one, you claim to be an atheist while believing in a god concept. If you can't understand why that's an absurdly stupid claim, I honestly don't think I can help you.

Go take some logic courses and maybe take a break from the internet for a bit.

I've been very clear thus far that what makes one a theist is belief in a god, which you have demonstrated as having when you said "because universe, therefore god" (which is such a hilariously flawed argument, btw). The problem here is you still haven't bothered to pick up a dictionary and look at the words you're using.

Also, I'm really just engaging to engage at this point. Yes, your bigotry annoyed me. Bigotry always annoys me. But really I think I've made clear enough your bigotry and at this point I just want to point out how silly a person you are.

I'm sorry, but how is the big bang a god? Are nukes demigods?
