All those new drivers are getting the tax bill, adding up car repairs and money spent on fuel. They realized they donated all their time ruined their car and paid uber all year to deliver random strangers to destinations.
Very little tax to be paid. IRS allows you to expense 65.5 cents per mile. Uber is paying 66 cents per mile plus small sums for base fee and per minute fee.
@@gregmadison556 All bitter drivers hoping for a "trick" or a way to earn more money. What they fail to understand is that they are basically worthless. If they quit there will always be another to take their place I drive only when there is surge, like in the video. If you drive non surge you're just shooting yourself in the foot Most drivers are lazy and can't/won't do anything else.
I’ve done this for 9yrs. Why don’t u drive that half mile to get the extra $10 to get the $28. Or take that 1.2 mile trip for the $22 fare. U just sitting idly by wasting time and money hoping to get something more when Uber likely won’t offer u something better
I don't know if you watched the whole video, when I made this video I was not planning to drive at that time, I was just showing the drivers that Uber only pays good money when they can't find enough drivers, usually when the weather is bad.
@@whereistruefreedom I drove in northern part of Chicago for 9yrs and then the last year decided to stick to the south suburbs where I live and the money is better. There’s no traffic and the people r a bit more pleasant to deal with.
Uber paid me more bitcoin yesterday as its fiat value dipped. Today and in the future, the value will continue to grow. So even Uber driving can be prosperous under an honest monetary system.
@@whereistruefreedom yes i see but ofc they wont pay more if they dont need to its just supply and demand , also its known to everyone that uber treats drivers very poorly and overcharges customers. Its just a shitty company but the real truth is that its all drivers fault cuz if there is no one to accept these bad offers uber will have no choice but to offer better payment
There's hardly any surge in Chicago,this one was exceptional, because it was single digits temperature and the real feel was -28 and very few drivers were out driving and accepting trips.
@whereistruefreedom I believe times with uber and lyft are getting tight and the only way to make money is to accept 80% rides ... yes I'm the 8 out of 10 that accept and accept
Because every other driver is rushing to the same surge point just like you are. It’s not like you are the only driver seeing red. I never waste my time on surges unless they are very close to where I am.

Why do people watch Uber videos if they have such a negative opinion of the company.

@@whereistruefreedom supply and demand. Welcome to capitalism
They don’t even pay surge anymore no matter what.Last snow storm paid regular without surge.İm moving on
@cjtsn466 in Chicago there's too many drivers, I hardly see surge anymore.

22% AR ......freakin' legend 🙌
22 is high

In Los Angeles Uber and Lyft only pay minimum wage which is $15.50 hr after expenses.
@@BarnardShow in Massachusetts they have to pay the driver $32.5 for every active hour, and I don't know how they decide the active hour!!!!

@@Jackson-l3r in Chicago Uber is not paying you Bitcoin they are paying you pennies 😔
😅😅😅 good work
4:10 would have take this in a heart beat.
Uber doesn’t pay. The rider pays. Uber takes. Everyone post about what Uber pays when it’s really Uber taking.
We have no surge in Cleveland Oh. We just have a heat map no surging prices at all
It looks like they even pay less in smaller market like Cleveland.
No Shit Sherlock tell us something we don’t know🤷🏾♂️
Smart A** comment
They are just baiting.
The are using all the tricks that they can find.
Uber is becoming like casino jackpot machine, win some lunch some
in this case what you have to do is accept whatever ride u get and then cancel it until u get a good one and the surge will stay
Hi I understand the surge will stay if I accept and then cancel but that's not why I made this vedio.

@@maximumstrength1313 that's what I have been saying for years but it's like talking to myself 😂
I do that all the time
@@peterbartolotto392 good strategy. 👍
In Cincinnati you don't even see the surge amount upfront

Looks like they screwing all drivers in ohio
I'm not Uber driver but I'm learning a lot everyday from you guys, it will save me all the Hussle when I start work
Facts!!!! I drove to a hot spot and nothing happened lol why is it so hot and not popping soon as I get there🤷
Because most of the time, their surge is fake just to get you to go out and drive.

I have never in my life seen this on my map. All ive seen is the normal orange
Hi , in Chicago, the surge is rare lately , this was an exception because it was 27 degrees below zero (real feel) in Chicago that day.
