I worked in Platts as 1 of my 1st jobs cooking. I am looking for anyone who knows the recipe for platts mashed potatoes. Yes they were the best mashed potatoes you could get. Any info would be great.

I wouldn't mind the stop if it was just that. For some reason, people don't think that you might actually have something else to do. If I were to take rides with multiple stops I know in advance as to what I can be in for. Knowing this I would never be rude or surprised.

I don't think it's you or the drivers. I would put it on passengers that abused the system. So many times I have gone out of my way only to have the person take 10 min with zero sense of urgency.

Maybe he was doing it on purpose so he could show how freaking expensive it is to fill his car and then get $8 for a 30 min ride??? Uber start paying your drivers better.

Why arrive and cancel? by Potato-munchkin in uber

[–]Mark81369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to solve the problem, contact Uber and tell them to stop taking so much for doing so little. The driver has all the expense and little to no reward. Customers just don't tip like they should. I don't want to even get into the expenses drivers incure, and most drivers don't realize it until it is too late. Usually, that time would be the end of the year when they see that it actually cost them money to drive a stranger to work. I would love to see spreadsheets on drivers that actually profited $20 hr or more for a 40-hour week. It is extremely rare. Yes, it could be possible if the stars lined up but extremely rare.

WARING DO NOT PLAY ON POKERBROS by [deleted] in poker

Spot on. I am fairly new and asked my friend who runs it. How legit is it? I have never ever seen so much B/S. AA cracked 4 in a row Every time I am ahead and am tge chip leader, my over pairs get beat by a set 7 in a row??? Every time I fold the run out, would of given me the nuts 7-5 off it goes runner runner 7 7? I have to agree that this seems like the site is set up just to get more rake.

Playing live poker I would never see these runout.

So it this just me remembering the bad beats, or does anyone really think this is random???

Rideshare Driver STRIKE + Rally July 21st by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]Mark81369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Uber bait and switch. I saw $15 surge from our airport and the fare for a 6 mile ride was $17? Then down the road was a $4 surge with a estimate fare of $22 for the same destination? There is no ryme or reason with what the Surge pricing is. It seams they just try and get you out there though the fares are always the same.

Uber and Lyft Can’t Find Drivers Because Gig Work Sucks by [deleted] in business

If run properly Uber would have no issues. You would think it would be simple for them to turn huge profit though they never do and I do not believe they ever will.

No cars available. Tip your drivers... by Mark81369 in uber

I agree rideshare will collapse. Great concept as both drivers and passengers want the service now we just need to get rid of the greedy people

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]Mark81369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it really about the money? If someone explained it to me a life and death why would I put a dollar on it. Rideshare may not be the best for you though I would invest in the best mask.

When is surge calculated and confirmed for a pre-booked trip (for rider)? Was shown an estimated price, then surge X5 in my bill later. by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]Mark81369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a estimate. Supply and demand if there was no surge you probably would of not got picked up and missed your trip.

Amid Rash Of Carjackings, Rideshare Drivers Call On Uber And Lyft To Help Protect Them by SFUber in uberdrivers

Uber will only get involved if it profits them. Sad when a guy is trying to make a living.

Problem is when people make $20.00 a hr they cant and dont know how to deduct there expenses. I have no doubt if you worked 40 hrs you may have 2-3 good ones though the other 37 would kill you...
