I love the doublespeak in the statement: "Our local teams can be pretty determined when spreading the word about Uber and how our platform opens up new economic opportunities for drivers"
"opens up new economic opportunities" is that what we are calling "sales" now?
- freehunter 13y agoTo me it says they open new economic opportunities by bringing black car service to the masses and fairly cheaply (I compared Uber to a cab for a trip I'm taking soon, UberX was much cheaper). AFAIK, black car services weren't very accessible by the public not that long ago. Services like Uber or Gett let the drivers make money in a new way, which sounds about spot on to me.
- eridius 13y ago"opens up new economic opportunities for drivers". It's not sales. It's part-time job openings. Their phrasing sounds about right.
