I drive for Uber. Or I should say, I drove for Uber. I did one day. 2 trips. And it doesn't make any sense. I put 76 miles on my vehicle and pocketed $35. Not worth it.
Also. If you get in an accident. And the accident can be someone else's fault, or you blow a tire and hit a guard rail, your car insurance won't cover you. Most big name car insurance companies now have Uber Investigative Departments. You'll be paying cash for your car repairs.
Just be careful and do your research first. If you go into it accepting the risks. That's one thing. But it isn't worth it, IMO. Uber increased the percent they keep, used to be 20%. Now it's 25%. Then they lowered fares to gather more riders. Very greedy company.

I was consistently making $100-160, minus 30 to 50 in gas and projected maintenance, per day when driving for both uber and lyft recently. So for first year pay it can make a difference. It can be long hours and although most people are cool you do get some strange individuals. Not a long term solution but it could give someone some breathing room.

Where can I find information on how to get a parking pass for not one of our base airports? Such as a reimbursement or whatnot, I figured it would be on the Intranet but can't seem to find anything.
