Many thanks to @abitterjourno@BusinessInsider for this article & Harry Campbell @TheRideshareGuy for providing me with the platform to become a leading advocate for drivers. Financial literacy is essential for everyone, particularly for gig workers.

Two of my favorites in this video by @LeviSpires from @tipyouintheapp with professor Len Sherman @lenshermanCBS. Definitely worth a watch!

@uber@sachinkansal Please explain this to me! Driver accepted a trip, upfront fare $23.14, then the Rider added a stop, the original trip is extended by 2 miles and 5 minutes. Trip is finished, Rider tips $15, please take a look at the attached receipt screenshots. Fare drops to $15.11, including the tip, total driver pay $30.11. Upfront fare is shaved by about $8!!! Did Uber steal part of the tip? Looks like it to me @FTC@DeptTransport@dojphofficial
Somtrip goes longer instead of shorter but the algo still cuts the fare, great. In the case I posted, the reduced fare was for 2 miles and 5 minutes of extra work from the driver and the algo cut the fare by $8. I wonder if the Rider is paying less as well? I'm betting NOT! What hap to Only on Uber 2026 promise? Despicable company!
@samvance@Uber@sachinkansal The trip was actually longer by 2 miles and 5 minutes after the stop was added and if there was surge on the original offer, it's not in the pinflg screen. Look at the screenshots man.
@LeviSpires@Uber@sachinkansal What happened to the Only on Uber 2026 promise of keeping the upfront fare for trips that are cut short, this trip due to an added stop was 2 miles and 5 minutes longer.
