The fact that they took away our surge $ which was one of my top inspiration to work, really hurts !
Welcome to inflation
Took away? They kept some of it or...??
I'll never forgive or forget what uber's blind greed stole from us. Publicly traded companies was one of the DUMBEST, least sustainable things humanity has ever created.
They need to make money. What they've done is way too much to their benefit, and will lead to other companies emerging. Both Uber and Lyft bled cash to gain market share from cabs. I'm not sure how Waymo is going to be able to do it already being public.
As long as their punk-ass CEO eats good, who cares about the people actually doing the work and paying the operation expenses?
no more surges and quests
I get quests intermittently, but they are nowhere near as lucrative as they once were. Surges are my bread and butter, I rarely turn on trip requests if I don’t have a decent surge.
Both every weekend in my market. We even have weekday quests and flash quests.
Most we get in San Diego is a dollar at the airport, maybe 1.50
I see 3 dollars surges sometimes but uber is not using wid eemap surge in my market for long time. Surge is based on rider. You get 4 dollars offer from a street than you get 14 dollars offer from next street for almost same amount of trip range in same time.
Man I miss those days. Airport surge was a freakin’ $1 the other night smh.
If your from Chicago I saw that as well couldn’t believe it.. waste of an digital image
Look at that angry cat tho 🤭
Lmao stop looking through my camera roll
I mean… wait until Waymo starts in your city. Surge is pretty much a thing of the past.
I only see this on New Years Eve. It’s the one day of the year I’ll drive for sure. Typically it’s $2-$8
Before all the drivers supply increased exponentially. Best kept secret told to the masses.
Uber definitely still charge surges just for themselves though
Cry 😢
Super cry
