- pjc50 9y agoUber employees, or people who work for uber?
- harmlessposter 9y agoOh man, is there like, a big group of people for whom this distinction matters? If so I am not prepared to explain. Are you able to explain this difference in my place, pjc50?
- icantdrive55 9y agoIt matters when you go into debt buying a four door Uber approved vechicle, just to find out that your "Hustle" is not paying the bills, or even the car payments. (I wouldn't have a problem with Uber's business plan, except for the vechicle requirement. Let Independent Contractors drive whatever their state let them register. Let the customers decide whether they want to get in? A safety inspection I kinda get. Then again the driver is the one paying for commercial insurance?)

- pjc50 9y agoI was alluding to the way that Uber specifically calls its drivers not employees, although they do work for Uber. The drivers do not have stock options and may have a different opinion of Kalanick.
- kalefranz 9y ago> If a scientific poll of Uber employees were taken today they would probably elect him CEO. My guesss is that there’s a lot of self-selection that’s happened through the Uber ranks. Employees who weren’t TK loyalists have probably largely opted out of Uber and moved on. So I’m guessing that first sentence is indeed accurate.
