UBER cutting driver pay in NYC, charging passengers congestion pricing and not reimbursing drivers, overcharging passengers and paying itself the LION'S SHARE of YOUR earnings. PLEASE Strike!
If it rains uber prices go up, if it snows it goes up, if it's busy the price goes up, cool destination? price goes up! Dangerous conditions? price goes WAY up all the while the drivers pay stays the same never earning more then a maximum per hour ceiling the algo worked out. Uber has reduced the minimum fare payout to drivers down to $4 dollars which is the most common fare type within Manhattan and now drivers have to pay $1.50 every time they pass through. The algo will only provide 3 trips max per hour on average so if you get 3 trips passing in and out of congestion zone you're earning $7.50 per hour if they were short trips. Meanwhile on a $4 dollar trip where YOU did all the labor and YOU took all the risk UBER has paid themselves $5 dollars from the $20 they charged the passenger! We have no laws protecting our wages, no representative backing us up, we are exploited by first and foremost NYC government for the corruption of limiting Yellow Cab medallions to prevent "traffic" only to turn around and allow corporations to purchase those medallions preventing workers from ever owning the means of production without slaving away 20yrs+ of their life for corporations, Secondly exploited by the state who taxes 40% of our hard earned labor unjustly and lastly exploited by UBER who pay us 35% of what WE worked for all while providing zero benefits zero protections and zero respect. If we don't form a union and work together in solidarity they are going to grind us down to the minimum possible legal pay imaginable the way the Yellow Cab industry was doing before Biden intervened during covid where they were committing suicide left and right as greedy corporations defaulted them on their contracts and took back medallions with 700k in payments made on time over 15+ years.
We need a driver owned and operated rideshare app with shared profit. It can operate like Uber but rather then profits stay at the top those profits get divided and sent back to drivers end of year. It could have a membership fee to join as a driver to help pay for it and advertisements till it gets popular. We could work for less then what uber charges customers and take a pay cut to invest in our futures and driver the other app companies out of business. It could include yellow cabs too, we aren't 2 competing enemy factions we are ONE team of workers being manipulated by those at the top to think of each other as competition! Anyone else want to work on this together?
