re: First Time Using Uber: It's basically a taxi service with a cool app

The 5 star rating system is Bs that's why. It should be out of 10 or preferably 100. I mean you think about it and a 4 star is like an 80%, you give them a 100% which would be perfect. Most people just hit a 5 if it's a good ride and a 4 if there is a minor issue. Then they do a 1-2 if there is a major issue.

im pretty sure they are fired if they get under something like 4.5 or 4.

I don't know about Miami they probably have some areas with cabs all over, but most cities don't. That's where the app is great.
