I ended up with a little over $1100 after my expenses.

Being a Taxi Cab driver was always a “last resort” job so why on earth would people think that having people use their private vehicle AND paying them less money would be a good idea for anyone other then the passenger?

Because it doesn’t pay as much as those real jobs. That’s what makes a job a “real job” as opposed to a “paying hobby.” You make enough money to survive.

I drove briefly last year — up until somebody ran a red light and totaled my car shortly after I dropped somebody off. If you’re just in it for some side cash and/or want something to do, go for it. Don’t expect to make a living. And the hazards of being on the road that much more (and general increased maintenance…

It’s a bigger picture issue, but I don’t like the “if you don’t like it do something else” argument because there are many, many reasons why that can be difficult. Some are personal, others are institutional. Regardless, why is it okay that we as customers take advantage of these employees because the ‘chose’ the…

Uber loses a shitload of money. Over $2.8B last year, and likely a over $2B this year; and that’s not including the fact that uber doesn’t have to pay for cars themselves. Every uber ride taken by a customer is heavily subsidized.

I finished. No days off. 80 hours, $1,214

$870 after expenses in easy mode. According to the site, I’m basically average. 

I’m pretty sure if you stuff it with a bunch of rice that it’ll be dry and raring to go in no time.

Only thing that bothers me is it’s obviously a black mom and black son — could they not find a biracial model?

Who the hell even uses miscegenation anymore?

This ad makes me angry because beautiful people piss me off. Them and their beautiful children. Stop #UglyGeocide #DontLitter #WaitNowImConfused

I learned a new word today: miscegenation. Usually I feel smarter after learning a new word. Not today.
