If you have joined UberPeople.net because your Uber account was hacked, you've likely been taken in by a scam. Please read this before starting a thread on this subject.

I dunno. There was not strike planned for phoenix AFAIK, however, it's been all over the news. I"m not driving for anyone but me today. It's cool, because I'm a good tipper.

I didn't know of the strike and I don't care. Pointless.
I'd say the strike is working. I've read articles about it in virtually every major source as well as tech and financial websites. EVERYONE is talking about the strike, and giving different takes on driver working conditions and pay. The strike was never going to impact service
My type of guy. Agreed. Fact is the whole strike stuff isnt going to do a THING. It's in the news today and gone tomorrow......to the next big story.
At the end of the day, if you dont like ubering, find something else. I cant understand why it's that hard for people to get. Seriously!!!
This forum should be a place to share ideas and help out your fellow driver......instead of rideshare bashing.
If you go to the community page you will see it has everything you can complain about advice, stories, people,complaints , pay ,technology,ratings,license, Vehicles, Insurance,taxes, tips,search information,news. So this forum has a little bit of everything, including bashing thank goodness. Which is what you are also doing

The sound of logic flying over another person's head that everyone who drives ride share must not have a career. :rollseyes:

It was more about educating the public and creating a national dialogue. I don't live in a large market, but I did avoid logging on to Uber and Lyft all of today as my way of standing in solidarity. Hopefully, there will be more awareness by passengers now that this issue has made its way into the national news. Change is slow. Nothing lasting is ever achieved in a single day.

Service was impacted in SF.
One day of news.
What logic would that be?
What would be those reasons?
Proof of this?
Well I can see your debating and speaking skills is on par with your average rideshare driver.

"...your debating and speaking skills ARE on par..." Not "is"
Oh the irony.
Maybe you should become an English teacher. You can travel the world and make more money than you ever can as an Uber slave.

Become an English teacher, in addition to my current career. PLUS continue to drive ride share on the side when I feel like it to make my fun money? That crazy talk! lol
If you are doing this on the side, why do you care. Also, doing this on the side won't make you much money and put too much wear and tear on your car. Better ways to spend your time.

I'm all for coordinated labor actions to demand better conditions but yesterday was not it. I couldn't figure out which cities were or were not participating, whether it was from 7 am to 9 am, Pacific or Eastern time, or all day. So I drove. Then after just an hour or two my other job called and said they needed me to work a shift. So then I didn't drive anymore.
Oddly, I had won of the biggest days in terms of tipping ever. Don't know if it was the news or if I was just particularly likeable or just the luck of the draw in getting good tippers but it was like 100 percent, and everyone gave $5 or more.
Probably has nothing to do with anything but it was kind of notable.
