We are about 20 drivers strong and growing. If you could just answer few questions. What are you willing to do for us if we stand with you and lose our excess to uber app? You answered saying " well you get kicked off so what it's a minimum wage job where you can find other minimum wage job" that is not something an organization members want to hear. United we stand united we fall.

My answer on the other thread was, if you are afraid of getting kicked off Uber then please don't join the group.
So you are asking people to join you but not care about "what ifs"? What kind of organization is that? I guess you want people who are thugs and bullies to join your organization and not care if they lose their jobs? Cause only people that do not care for their jobs are considered low class individual. Some of us or most of us don't like our jobs nor our bosses but we still do it for some real life causes.

I think it's interesting but sad that all I did was float the idea of a driver coalition and see what kind of interest people would have in joining - no solid direction yet, no rules, bylaws or charter - just an idea - and in less than a day people who are supposedly on the same side have resorted to name calling and mutual disrespect. It is this kind of divisiveness that will prevent any organization from forming in the first place, so I ask all of you to put your petty differences aside and look at the big picture - do you want a voice in how you do your job? How much you get paid? What are you willing to give in return for that voice? Put aside differences and work to a common goal? I can't answer for you - you need to make the decision.
If and when( and truly hope you do succeed in forming this group) you form this group all we ask is please respect everyone that shows up. If questions are asked have good answers for it. There is no need to call names and pick point races.

Why would you lose access to the app for talking to other drivers? How would Uber even know who you spoke to and what you spoke to them about?

If that's your answer than you are not going to have many members joining and end up ruining lots of people's jobs even it may be for few days. And in the near future people won't end up joining a real organization out of fear of your failure.

If we show to this meeting uber undercover will diff. Show up and our pictures as a driver uber has. They will deactivate some of us or you and the reasons won't be cause we were at the meeting but a phantom reasons such as "too may cancellation or any other bs they can come up with".

OK, I'll bite. How would Uber "undercover" know about the meeting? And wouldn't it be easy to spot the undercover guy because he would be the only guy at the meeting taking pictures of people?
Words get around faster than ever before such as this forum. And that person or persons are not dressing up in suites they will blend in just like any other driver and will support us in the meeting only to be a snitch. He doesn't need to take pictures the media is going to ask us to do interviews and what not. Again I will answers questions without harassing anyone in any shape or form. My intention is not to help not form this organization but want to know people's opinion on how we can proceed without getting in trouble such as app excess what not. And if some of us( and it will happen) lose out on this fight how will other members react to it.

Please note the author of each response - that was not from me
Actually that was my answer - I would certainly advise anyone to think twice before doing anything that you might feel will put your job in jeopardy - I don't think it will happen and I am willing to take that risk for myself in order to have a voice, but as I said before, only you can make that decision for yourself

Ok, you really didn't answer my question, and the answer you gave didn't make much sense.

If you're worried about losing access to the app and you're worried that Uber monitors these boards aren't you worried that Uber could take away your access just for posting in this thread about forming a group? It wouldn't be that hard for Uber to get your IP address.

Also, anyone undercover collecting names or taking pictures would be thrown out in an instant.

I'm not worried if Uber shows at any meeting - we're not doing anything illegal or against any written policy - in fact I would welcome their presence as they would know we are serious.

Even if uber is watching this thread it's not an action taken against them yet when we start doing meetings is when the actions starts because the media gets involved and we need the media involved. The snitch uber sends is there to verfiy who is there and a witness for its own uber higher uppers. I hope that helped.

I think some of us want to hear is this from the organization:" if uber takes action against some of us all the members go on strike and fight together to support each other's back". When their as an organization like that we will have lots more people joining us. United we stand united we fall.
