After a couple of weeks of being signed up as an Uber driver, I wanted to shed a little more light on the matter.
First off, the rideshare app that Uber provides only works on smartphones; drivers are assigned fares through an algorithm. As a driver, I can’t take cash fares. This completely dictates how I go about offering ridesharing.
I don’t work a standard shift, camp-out at the ferry dock, or troll for rides…
