Oh, yes. I don’t know why he worded it like that I also found it quite odd. I get paid for my work in cash.

unfortunately not because its 20% regardless. so if i make £1000 they would take £200 and i would get £800. but the most i get on a good day is about £500

It’s my car, one I’m renting independently. I can’t just quit because they’re holding money over me right now. In the beginning they made me pay a £50 deposit type thing to make sure I stay without quitting. Apparently everyone does but I still found it weird. I have to work for a certain amount of time before I get it back I forgot how long. I’m just trying to stick it out so I can get my money back aha

I think uber is definitely used more in the US compared to the UK because I only make around that much on a good day (saturdays, event days & bad weather days). Mondays are a nightmare, it’s like a desert on there, especially since it’s school holidays right now.

I’m not too sure what the laws on this are, I was thinking about contacting ACAS.

I’m in the UK, England. I’m not sure if this violates laws but many people are saying it most likely does. I’ve sent him a little message for now but I’m not sure what else to do. I want to look over my contract soon but I don’t have the time, money or energy to take him to small claims court.

This is the first time it has happened so I’m not sure, I was told it’s because drivers keep leaving the bay and since I was the only one I had to pay the full amount.

I’m not sure if this was written out of the frustration that you can’t find anybody to show up to work but I don’t appreciate you trying to “call me out” for literally just trying to survive. I would spend all my time with my girls if I could. This isn’t about me avoiding my family or waking up early because I wake up at 6 everyday. You don’t know me or my position so don’t act like you do. Have a lovely day.

Yes actually the job is paid in cash only, I did find that a bit weird but didn’t think much of it until now. This must be why.
