True, but not relevant to my point which is that uber explicitly sets the rates, not drivers, and not the market. I understand why they do this, but it's simply false to say that drivers having the option to sometimes pass up on rides is the equivalent of setting their own rate.
- emteycz 6y agoLet's consider me, an IT contractor. I have a profile with IT staffing agency. They offer me contracts with a predetermined rate that I can accept or decline; I was offered an exclusivity contract for additional 5% income, but I declined. Why is me, an Uber driver so different that I am to be forced to be an employee?
