Here is a fact about UberEats and Uber in general in Houston Texas:

It seem some of you believe UberEats or Uber in general pays the same rate across the nation which in fact they do not!

Uber along with Dash and Hub pay much lower in Houston than in College Station, Austin and San Antonio and how do I know this?

I have driven in each City to learn the prices that are paid in each city!

UberX in Houston pays between eighteen to twenty-three an hour while UberEats if you are lucky will pay twelve an hour, so for those that live In Georgia that tell this board how us driver’s should take three dollar delivery rides, well you come here and do that and see how long you last because you will go broke!

Austin I average about forty an hour and yesterday I took a reservation ride from College Station to Bush Airport for $140.00:

Now some of you will say that is great but if you reverse the trip from Bush to College Station the pay would have been less.

Awhile back I took a trip from College Station to Hobby airport and got one going back to College Station and I am glad I did those trips to show the difference in pay:

This is from College Station to Hobby which paid a solid amount but now notice the return trip to College Station:

That is with the tip and the difference is nearly forty dollars, so those that want to lecture me about the pay in Houston and how I am lying, well then explain the difference in pay between those two trips?

Uber does not pay it driver’s anything in Houston and here are our pathetic quests:

So tell me again how Uber pays it Driver’s with great paying offers in Houston because they don’t!

So unless you drive in H-Town you have no clue what the pay scale is in Houston and what you make in New York, Atlanta or San Francisco isn’t the same as we make in Houston!

Now let the Uber fanboys and girls and those that need a Unisex Bathroom tell me how I am lying about the low pay in Houston and I will invite you to drive here and when you discover you will make much less, well then you have learned that Uber doesn’t pay us the same in every city across this country!

Upfront pricing in Houston pays a lot less than Austin and yes I drive in Austin and did so last weekend and between Uber and Hub I cleared $303.00 on Sunday for about seven hours of work.

I would never make that in Houston at all in seven hours and I would be lucky to clear $140.00 and did the $303 during the day in Austin and not at night!

Uber doesn’t pay in Houston and anyone that want to call me a liar again should look at those figures I just posted and notice the difference between the airport runs!

I mean nearly a forty dollar difference and if you subtract the damn tip it would have been nearly fifty dollar difference!

Fifty dollar difference when you subtract the damn tip!

Anyone want to lecture me now and if so how much is Dara paying you?
The pay from San Antonio is pathetic on long trips. A couple weeks ago I mistakenly took one from San Antonio to Laredo that was 166 miles for 117.44 with total deadhead miles on the way back. No tip.
