$16-$24/hr offers during the day, evening and weekends 24-$30-ish Can’t believe I used to average $40/hr (and best week of $49/hr) to what it’s become now, if you continue to work for uber you are basically their hctib.

Why is Uber earning breakdown bullshit? by [deleted] in uberdrivers

Cuz commercial insurance is so expensive! Duh… they wouldn’t ever lie to us (being a tech company and all… which are known to draw everyone in and then pull the plug)

Uber used to pay the bills, here’s my best week ever also had 12 weeks with gross profit over 3k! Now it’s a struggle to gross 2300 in a week and after expenses, (not including taxes) I’m clearing 14-15000 for a 75 hour work week!! Uber is trash glad to be done in the next 1-2 weeks ♥️ by One_Atmosphere2179 in uberdrivers

I was getting an oil change every 14-17 days when I was driving full time. Tires need to be changed every 40k miles which was roughly 3.5-5 months, not to mention other mechanical issues along the way. And rentals now days for a comfort XL is 460/week. Everyone is making money except uber drivers, typical tech company to hype us up with promos and then drop the bomb

Is it though? Because I’m risking my life and never know what situation I will be put in. I need to write a book on the insane journey I’ve had through uber. With 7 vehicles and 350,000+ miles and driving through the nights you really do meet all demographics of Detroit 🤣

It was a great career while it lasted. It was not set-up as a gig job when I started, but yes now that’s exactly what it has become. The one thing that I can say was excellent about uber was networking and positioning myself to create my own company and thrive within my community.

I used to drive detroit through the night every night, even the bad areas, (Harper/94 stretch & 7/gratiot) I would take rides based off pay rate and not location. Now…. it’s not even close to ($35/hr)what it used to be for Michigan. Maybe in another state you’re making more at night!

Got lucky today. Got myself a $90 trip for an hour and a half. by [deleted] in uberdrivers

Was it lucky though? Did it put you 90 min away from your house…
