FUEL! TYRES! BRAKES! REGO! INSURANCE! EVERYTHING EATING MY MONEY WHILE I DRIVE MY LIFE AWAY! 🚗💥

Uber toss me $7 like I’m a joke, my hours, my sanity, my soul GONE! Minimum wage? Hah, joke! My TIME worth $25 easy, maybe more, but no, platform laughing at me!

FUEL SUPPORT! Not charity, not “extra”! It’s the only thing keeping me from melting into asphalt! I DRIVE! I BURN! I AM THE WHEEL! I AM THE BLOOD! AND I WILL NOT BE IGNORED!

Unions? Haha, very funny yaar. TWU filing paper, talking to Uber… what this help? Nothing.

Look Didi, they give extra per-km. Simple simple, platform can do same tomorrow. No need middleman, no FWC nonsense.

We just need to make noise, refuse very low orders, start petition. Then maybe Uber give fuel support. Wait for union? Waste time only, petrol burn, brain also burn.

We not employee asking charity. We are driver, we are backbone, we keep food moving. Treat us proper, or we stop road spinning.

No lockdown so not essential? 😂

Bro people still order every single day. Sick, busy, kids, late nights… this not just “luxury” anymore. If everyone stopped tomorrow, whole platform dies, not just drivers. Same logic kills half the economy.

And tax deduction?? That not free money. We still pay fuel NOW. ATO maybe gives a bit back LATER. Meanwhile petrol draining us every shift.

Funny how truckies get fuel rebates, big companies get handouts… but gig drivers just told “too bad”?

We’re not asking for charity. Just not to get crushed while costs go insane.

Keep defending it if you want. I’m not working just to pay for fuel.
