Uber definitely does not compensate your commute back to your home when you turn the app off.
I'm also pretty sure that Uber does not compensate you during your drive to pick up your first passenger, so unless your first passenger is waiting at your parking location, you have an un-reimbursed commute to work as well.
- Zarel 11y agoThe $9.5/hour or $10.9/hour figure mentioned in the OP compensates for the time/distance traveled to pickup point, including your drive to pick up your first passenger. That was the figure I was referring to. You get misleading results if you compare a gross income from a minimum wage job to a net income from Uber.
