While I understand your frustration...its a dam ride sharing app not a job.




I have a full time job. That's not my point. I'm talking about how stupid their current business decisions are.

It used to be a ride sharing app. That's my point. The price point was high enough to keep middle and even upper class people interested as drivers which made the entire experience nice.

Now the price and profits so low Uber is quickly becoming another cab company. It's losing the drivers that made the company different from the cab companies. It's increasing wait times, and it's all around worse experience for all involved.

Ding ding ding.

I was doing it in a brand new Passat. I'm an IT consultant that's always dressed like I'm going to client sites. I drive well, am cordial, and was damn good at it. People like me aren't going to keep doing it.

People like the last driver I had - terrible BO, driving a beat to shite minivan are going to be the new norm.
