How insensitive of you. Don’t you realize the CEO is a douche and all of the drivers hate being contractors for them but refuse to find other work. Man, you have to get on the Gawker train and refuse to use this service like the ‘TONS” of Gawker readers do. Oh, and if you know of anyone who doesn’t use Uber have them…

I set my mom up with Uber after she had a bad experience with a taxi. Hate on the executives being asses but the service is undeniably better than any taxi. Your concern was about not supporting management by allowing your folks to use taxis instead of a cleaner, safer service? I prefer mine not to be martyrs for the…

Opened this up to see that the Uber driver base was cut in half or 100 people left the corporate organization. Nope, same ol doom n gloom provided by a site that advertises for the competition. Gawker sites love to Uber hate, why is the coffee here $8 a cup and everyone has a man bun?

Because in some states like California no matter if you use your pickup in a business or not it is still classified as a commercial vehicle which can be 10X the cost for registration.

What about electrics and hybrid owners?

What are you towing, how often and what does your terrain look like? If the grades where you travel change drastically you will have high maintenance cost and the life of the truck will be shortened. But the higher cost of fuel in a 1/4 or 1/2 ton pickup will cost you if it is a daily driver. I live in California and…

I think it refers to lower restrictions for lower rate driver cars where the X drivers had higher requirements. More of a chance that you will not pass as an X driver. But why would regulators have a problem with this? There are Taxis and there are car services, the car service is usually a lincoln or something cush.

Nosir, you just happen to be frequenting a liberal run site owned by Univision communications who are not a fan of the current administration. I use the service often including Uber eats, never have an issue. Is management at Uber doing a bad job? Yes, do I want 7000 employees and 300,000 contractors out looking for…

I love it when people invalidate their opinion with a snowflake tantrum. Excelent work.

“Lyft made an effort to move into all areas of cities, not just the whitest and most affluent or business-oriented ones”

Sorry your comment does not apply to the atmosphere created by those who want things handed to them.

“Your manifesto is great. It doesn’t apply under the circumstances Uber has created.”

Why is that anyones problem but your own? Every driver I know is part time, they have a full time or another part time job, retired or a homemaker with extra time.

Exposure: Each taxi driver has to handle your card and swipe it. Uber handles the transaction outside of the driver. Consistency: Do a search on ‘Taxis:My credit card machine is broken”. Expectation of ease of transaction is always consistent with Uber.

Zero bad experiences with Uber, every car is clean, every driver respectable with interesting conversation. Everyone I know who uses Uber loves it, and forget about Uber eats, very popular in my area. I use Uber eats no less than once a week. The political push against Uber within my cross section of friends who use…

I made a similar post about multiple networks,(VLAN) on the LH Facebook page for this article, they were deleted and now I can’t reply to anything. Did I miss something?

Only a dealer thinks that people should bring out of warranty cars back to them for a repair.
