What exactly were these drivers doing before Uber showed up?
- ryan_f 14y agoWorking of course which I am guessing you realized? I am not debating that Uber is a huge help for getting business. I just feel that their employee conditions are not what many others expect in their daily jobs. I don't feel that is wrong.
- potatolicious 14y agoWorking for car services - many of whom Uber has soundly defeated in the relevant cities and no longer exist. The "if you don't like it, tough!" angle sounds nice, but is untenable in cities where Uber has absorbed the lion's share of the towncar market. Just because Uber is "one of us" doesn't mean they're scrupulous. I'd be very wary of trading disparate, crappy towncar companies for a single monolithic one with startupy roots.
