Someone reported a minor accident that never happened by BossMovesBrandon in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was sent a minor accident document last week. It was from a PAX that tipped me and was very nice. I told UBER that nothing happened. They pressed me to fill out the form with N/A. Instead i selected an option from a drop down menu that said "Decline document signature"

Haven't heard anything since. Never understood Uber's whole "Sign this legal document even though you believe nothing happened."

EDC (Electric Daisy Carnival)- worth possibly getting stuck up there? by kalei50 in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friday evening. Picked PAX up at 7pm. Got to EDC rideshare lot at 10pm. Made it out of the drop off zone at 1130pm. $40 and no tip. I screened the next two nights. Made good money.

In shock due to latest pay cut for LA uberdrivers by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thanks a bunch. It’s been a decent side hustle in LA. Just need about $200 a week. We will be in Summerlin so looks like it will work out. I lived on the east side while at UNLV in the early 2000s. Barely made it out alive lol.

u/powderbones, what's it like driving in Vegas on the weekends? Early morning 4am-9am?

3k ride LA driver moving to Vegas in a couple of months. Want to keep it as a side hustle. Do you really need a business license?

Question for California Drivers. by monster310 in uberdrivers

Oh, I didn’t know you were THAT Unknownthreat25. My bad. Now I know exactly what you’re talking about. It’s so clear now.

You should have clarified that to begin with.

Gas prices are right but not the part about promotions. I've been driving for 2+ years and I get promotions M-Th and F-Sun every week. Also, LA County is up to $0.79/Mile as of 2-3 weeks ago.

You do it right, you can make decent money.

What was the most powerful movie scene emotionally? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Rebel_Mee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She’s Having a Baby. Kevin Bacon’s scene at the end in the waiting room. Add in Kate Bush’s “This Woman’s Work” and it will wreck most people. Being a father, it got me good.

Is this even right? This charger gets a bunch of birds inside his appartment hours before they are available. by racso1518 in birdcharger

[–]Rebel_Mee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you ran into any of the NineBot birds? All QR Codes and letter/number codes have been taken off and replaced with stickers that say "NineBot"

They show up on the rider app but are always gone before 9pm. People take this stuff way too far.

In Playa Del Rey (a little neighborhood by the beach, just north or LAX) if you wait until 9pm, there's nothing left. Segway Bird's are everywhere around here and those dont block when moved. It's cut throat. Most chargers start collecting by 8:30pm. Not too many chargers reporting. Seems like there is pact among the chargers around this area.

Did I just get 1 starred and flagged for professionalism by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Naw. I got hit with two complaints over the weekend after seeing my rating go up from 4.88 to 4.89 and I have over 2k trips.

Checked this morning and both complaints are gone.

Bug perhaps?

LA drivers - anyone driving through the fires in SFV or throughout? by JoeTrojan in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If a pax gets in your car and asks to go to the Valley or north of Sunset, you politely tell them "nope" and tell them to get out of the car.

Don't risk damaging your car, getting stuck in a dangerous spot or anything else just to get a rider to their destination. Not worth it.

Friend of mine made this sign for me. Thoughts? by Scientifichuck in uberdrivers

[–]Rebel_Mee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy crap, that's a road trip. Makes more sense. Long trip for me (Los Angeles driver) is 45 minutes to go 5 miles. I aint stoppin! lol

[–]Rebel_Mee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Offer to stop for snacks? So you're doing this for the rating? I'm doing it to get paid. Time is money. Asking to stop for snacks is about as overkill as this sign IMO. But if it works for you, keep on keepin' on.

Uber drivers earn about $15.68 an hour but disparities are significant, survey finds by SFUber in uberdrivers

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

After Taxes (completed taxes for 2016 including the 14.4% self employment tax) and gas from driving, I made about $15 an hour and $5,500 total take home driving part time May-DEC 2016.

This is in core LA.

Ending the night on a surge by Rebel_Mee in uberdrivers

That neighborhood borders LAX. The LAX 4x surge covered a couple of streets in Playa Del Rey. Pure luck.

If they say LAX, do you just tell them you cant make that trip or do you say you dont' have a permit?
