Uber ads on Craigslist would be more accurate if they read something like:

Make a few extra bucks every week!

You can join the 50,000 others who already have new jobs this month! (Err, freelance gig with no wages, no benefits, AND you provide your own car and buy all the gas!)

– Good Money Our top partners typically make minimum wage AFTER expenses (such as Self Employment tax, gas, depreciation, maintenance, tires, etc., etc.) and some make as much as $GodOnlyKnowsAskTravis. Get checks deposited into your bank account weekly via Uber-cool and Uber-new direct deposit! (Don’t worry, we won’t start charging you weekly data fees and phone deposits until after the rate cuts that follow our promotional discounts!)
– Flexible Hours Unlike other minimum wage jobs where the employer provides the tools of work, you can work when you want! And did we mention you get to use your own car and buy all the gas?!! (Oh happy day!)
– Safe and Transparent Your riders (even the drunk ones!) rate you and you rate your riders (especially the ones who go on short trips and don’t tip and failed to give the correct location to be picked up!). And just ignore that $1 “Safe Rides Fee” that we collect on each and every trip, no matter how short! We provide some kind of commercial liability insurance (but please do NOT mention to your auto insurer that you are driving for Uber! Mum’s the word. Shhhhhh).
– Good Communication We provide every single one of our suckers (err, “partners”) with an email address that they can use 24/7/365 to communicate with Uber about their concerns. We guarantee to use our best standard-form responses! And we will respond eventually!
– Don’t have a car, or have one that is too old? Want to get a new car to use with Uber? We can help connect you to companies who will offer you special rates available to virtually any driver. And the payment will remain the same even after we unilaterally drop the rates with little advance notice to you! You could be in a brand new car within a week, regardless of credit history! And remember, the payment will remain the same even after we unilaterally drop the rates with little advance notice to you!

Easily make a few extra bucks every week!

So come on, sucker!

UBER SCAM (ALL LOCATIONS)

uber’s whole game now is to offer riders fares that are so low that only a math-challenged or truly desperate person would provide services in THEIR personal automobile for less than minimum wage.

They are STEALING the auto equity and gas money of their “partners” under the guise of employment

Whatever the driver “earns” is lost in gasoline and auto depreciation.

Expect service levels to COLLAPSE in the very near future.

Free water and gum? Open the door? Clean car? Help with you luggage?

Not at these rates.

Passengers are now LUCKY if anyone shows up at all.

Especially for the short trips.

Think you can pay drivers to drive their own cars 50% less than taxi cab fares and maintain any level of service whatsoever?

Think drivers will safely and happily pickup your brats from school for 3 dollars?

Or take you to dca or union station for 8 dollars?

Think again.

Stay out of MY car, you cheap, self entitled bum.

Take a bus.

Riders will soon be lucky to find a driver with a 4* rating and the quality and cleanliness of the cars will soon rival those of taxicabs.

The riders are now HATED and RESENTED by the drivers as a result of uber’s sadistic attitude towards its “partners”.

These criminals are such despicable cowards that they have no physical address and will do anything to avoid drivers and customers alike.

People looking for work , Please do not out of desperation become a Uber Driver. Research the internet. All complaints that Uber drivers share on the internet about Uber is totally true. Lesson learned the hard way. They do not have respect for drivers. They take only rating from clients and can deactivate your account at anytime.

Potential Uber Drivers beware! Lies and deceit! (Orlando)

I work for them as a driver, but not for long. Beware that they promise all through their ads that drivers are making in Orlando $1000 dollars a week, but it is one big lie! You will be lucky to make 300.00, and you will use close to 100.00 in gas to make that 300. They are lying, and probably have high turnover rates as a result. They are trying to build their business off the backs of their drivers by lying to them about how much money they can make, so they can keep a steady stream of sucker drivers. Don’t believe the hype! I don’t know about Lyft, but I would not doubt them being similar. Don’t waste your nice car on such a low amount of compensation. Its a real joke. These companies should not be allowed to post this false information, or even to operate.
Sucks that Craigslist charges for posting in job section, because everyone should know that they are liars.
