Holy fuck.
I drove down uber fucking early to skip this craze -- even had to pay extra cuz I drove in BEFORE Early Bird FML
I hope they don't fuck up the streets TOO late tonight... My parking is close to City Hall

I've only recently been introduced to Uber ... the S/O uses it for the free $20 rides...
- I had 1 driver ask me to sit in front, while the SO sit in the back, so we wouldn't look like passengers. - Another driver had the phone holder between his legs, directly under the steering wheel
The SO was also crazy enough to say "If I wasn't already booked for a party, both of us should totally just be Uber drivers just for Dec31/1 ... That surge pricing we'll totally make bank..."

I like Uber from the fact that there is no cash money exchange. You know what you are paying.

At least someone in this country is fighting for their lively hood
not the right way to "fight it". It's actually creating more harm than good for them.

Why should the cabbies focus their anger on the big 3 companies? They saw an opportunity, they're milking it. They are technically within the laws outlined within those licenses...
Chasing and blaming the wrong people... They might be scum, but they're "legit" ... it's the laws that need to change, and this market force we call Uber is challenging and spotlighting it.
Mind you, Uber itself is also challenging other aspects of the model, i.e. the insurance aspect of being an Uber driver, etc.

I think the cabbies are too greedy. that's why they scam ppl on rides etc. if you think they have a lot of rules and regulations here they should see what kind of stipulations are put on new york cab drivers. their licencing and insurance is even harder to get and 10x easier to loose. well there you have it folks. Straight from the horses mouth. It pays to have a family taxi business.
