Do you guys think the metals will be back?

They'll probably come up with some new dog and pony show. They realize no one drives for base rates (or drives for long) as it's not worth it. They know the current rates aren't sustainable for drivers, thus the need for gimmicks like Quest.

Raising rates would solve a lot of this issue and save them headaches, but it's been made abundantly clear that ain't happening.

It would be nice if they did do Metals again. If they try to make Platinum 1.4X in one zone they're on crack.

How many trips did you do last week? Do you consistently hit Quest?

I think Rohit and the gang just throw darts to see who gets what Quest. No rhyme or reason

How is it not sustainable? As a rider, I can vouch there are always plenty of ants on the rider app. And I never have to wait more than a min or two for pick up.

Translation: there are plenty of drivers. The Camry Crew and tons of recent immigrants are willing to do the job if you won't.

Uber likes me, he really likes me!

27 trips for $80

39 trips for $85 this week for me..

I know you love coming on here and bashing drivers because it makes you, in some small sense, feel superior. Why you do is beyond me . When I'm done Ubering I will also be done here. I won't come to demean people.still driving. If you're trying to win people to your point of view, insulting them isn't the way to do it.

I meant sustainable in terms of drivers ability to make decent money and staying at it long term. Even the 'recent immigrants' as you call them (mods please don't ding me, I'm quoting him) realize base rates with no Boost/Surge suck and don't stick around. I've seen quoted on here the average driver stays 3-6 months. Turnover wouldn't be so high if drivers were making more.

How many hours did you put in?

don't worry...
Uber usually loses drivers during tax season.

It takes time that some drivers realizes that they do uber at loss. (at $1.02 per mile)

No, I don't. Who knows what the Uber masterminds are planning to do next.
I got 39 trips for $70
Last week 39 trips for $100

51 on the app.. but really about 55 hrs

63 trips for 85 bucks on my end. Well atleast I don't have to worry about my acceptance rate this week. **** all you uber pool riders.

So if you complete both quest for example 27 for 80 and 63 for 100 do you get paid both quest or is one or the other? Mon-thu quests

You get the amount for the higher number rides given. If you finish the 63 you only get the $100. Not the $80

Wow. If they stop quest then what's next?

hopefully return of some surges. i got nothing this morning.

21 for $45. Up to 2.0x every morning and up to 1.6x every night through Thursday.

HOW MUCH MORE INVESTOR MONEY CAN THEY BURN AT THIS RATE??? Just raise the rates and charge the customers so drivers are fairly compensated!

I've only been driving for a couple months so I'm curious what the metals were if anyone cares to explain.

At one point if you were a Platinum partner you had 2.4x boost EVERYWHERE in DC and you even had it during the middle of the day.

39 drives, $85
