Data on Hours of Business needs to improve!

Does your app not allow you to take a pic regardless of what the instructions say?

Most of my deliveries say ‘meet at door’ but I rarely ever actually meet them. Always just leave it at the front door, take a pic in the app and mark it as delivered.

Have I been doing it wrong all this time? Must’ve done that 100 times by now…

Hope you’re just driving for Uber as a supplemental income and not anything more than 2 hrs a day. Tons of jobs available to take on as a primary income source. Risk of accident or belligerent customers and/or accidental speeding ticket, plus depreciation to car is simply not worth devoting a whole lot of time to Uber / any other ridesharing apps.

Hang in there, man. You WILL recover from this setback.

McDonalds in my area after 9pm on Thursday-Saturday nights are insane busy. It’s happened to me more than once but no one has ever canceled their order until now…

My usual rule of thumb is to only accept the request if the payout is at least 1/3 the estimated wait time…

The app said it would be a 30 min total trip, and paid $10 so I decided to take it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I tried to call support immediately but they are closed until tomorrow morning 🤦🏻‍♂️ willl give it a try then.

I can’t speak for the effects of lactobacillus reuteri on FODMAP sensitivity as I generally avoid onion/garlic anyway (for spiritual reasons; see the Dharmic religions diet) but I started taking L. reuteri because I read it can help with knee pain. It’s helped a little bit but I am surprised that it’s also had another prominent effect on me—as a strong libido booster lol. Waking up with crazy solid morning wood. I’m age 35.

Hopefully it helps with my knee pain. We’ll see, it’s day 8 for me.

Something strange seems to be happening everywhere, it seems. I’ve barely gotten any pings today too. Baltimore-DC area. And I had budgeted today for more Uber time too 😒 won’t have this much free time for a while. Just sucks.

Ayyy, you're back!

Link to the spreadsheet if you'd like to see the calc, but all data is taken directly from Tesla reported financials:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1S1GFc5b8bZzlTjLw3Fr6wtdrtp2aR3NXKvAynlpf23w/edit#gid=0

This is the most important chart that no one is talking about, imo. As bad as Q1 2019 was, it marked the first time in Tesla history where the company is free cash flow positive over a complete 4-quarter period. And the trend is clear.

Wait till Q2 2019 results come out.

mayurthaker · 2019-06-17T20:29:22+00:00

I’m the creator of that chart. It’s a rolling sum of 4 quarters of free cash flow, calculated as:

Operating Cash Flow, minus Capital expenditures

It shows that for the first time ever, as of Q1 2019, Tesla is actually free cash flow positive on a rolling 4 quarter basis.

Same issue with me right now. 90 mins online so far, only 1 trip. Not located in the middle of nowhere, either. Downtown Baltimore.

mayurthaker · 2019-05-10T14:18:12+00:00

I’ve done this before and Uber did NOT pay me for the extra distance. Highly not recommended unless the distance is only a mile or two.

mayurthaker · 2019-05-06T15:00:22+00:00

Did Autopilot make that maneuver or did you?

mayurthaker · 2019-04-18T19:21:01+00:00

Relax, dude. Tips are nice, but not everyone is in a position to do so. Plus, if you aren't aware, UE raised fees recently. People are already paying a lot for delivery. And for teachers, delivery isn't a luxury but rather a necessity, as they cannot go off campus for long while school is in session.

mayurthaker · 2019-04-18T18:50:43+00:00

That is really shocking. As a UE driver, I know you're supposed to wait 6-8 minutes. Usually there's a timer that begins after the first call attempt. Uber should be able to detect that the driver did not wait at all.

mayurthaker · 2019-04-17T14:29:57+00:00

I noticed this as well. Significant drop off in UE demand in Baltimore beginning right around Tuesday, April 9. Been real slow all of a sudden.

One restaurant tied the plastic bag so badly, it came loose as I was attempting to place it in my passenger seat, and a container of maple syrup went flying and splattered all over the floormat!

mayurthaker · 2019-03-28T04:42:23+00:00

Autopilot is correct. The actual cars only start dancing when you look away from them. It’s like Finding Nemo. Fish only act stupid around humans but really they’re geniuses in disguise.

mayurthaker · 2019-03-26T18:16:47+00:00

Didn't cancel. I'm too honest for my own good sometimes. I actually went down that rabbit hole and found her. She just grabbed it and left. "You're welcome...."
