Have you considered that maybe, out of these 30$, only 5 might go to the driver? Sometimes even the tip is pocketed by the company — forgot if it was doordash which was found to do that a little while ago, and some people on HN were defending them.
- lhorie 5y agoHave you considered looking into statistics? As in, have you noticed how nobody's talking about the Uber drivers who pull in 100k+ per year? Or consider we're literally just taking a quote at face value here without questioning whether it's possibly hyperbole? The reality is that there's a huge amount of income variability for Uber drivers, both on the micro and macro levels, so it's very easy to paint whatever story you want by cherrypicking quotes from the side of the bell curve that supports your pet narrative.
