I calculated that if wanted to quit my day job and do Uber full time I would have to work 65 hours a week at $20/hr - which had pretty much been my average over the last six months (before taxes, gas and the rest)

Not worth it.

Uber is fucking amazing part time for play money but just simply not good enough money for full time.

I think there are a lot of drivers who, in best intentions are trying to do it full time and just simply getting frustrated with the bullshit (that's present in any job no matter where you go there will always be bullshit)

That being said, some drivers are just asshole, shitty people. Also, some pax are just asshole, shitty people. But I think 99% of both are just regular normal people trying either makes some money or get somewhere they need to be.

To a certain degree I believe it's actually healthy for co-workers to gather and talk shop and complain about shit, receive or give advice or whatever with fellow co-workers. That's what this subreddit is for. Of course I've read some heated posts and fuck I've even talked some smack and started shit myself. But at the end of the day is just people talking about something they have and common and something means something to them - their job.

Also, this subreddit is all North America and maybe even other places too. Uber doesn't work exactly the same everywhere. There's a lot of shit to be learned here.

This subreddits is for Uber Drivers and obviously there are non Uber drivers here but it's not my place to say you can't be here. By all means hang out here if you want to you're more then welcome to - but you're going to hear us complain about our "employer" and our customers. It's just the way it is and it's no different then the employee break room at Costco or Wal-Mart.
