[Luberon]

Let me guess what will be in the first issue
--> being Uber means there is no need to tip your driver
---> how to avoid paying surge pricing
----> is your Uber driver marketing other products or speaking against saint kalanic? Call 1-800-SNITCH now!

I can totally see Uber shoving this magazine on to (erm) independent contractors' cars.

 

[Jam Val]

I got one! Last month. I skimmed it.

Uber magazine? It was back there. Someone must have stole it. Sorry.

Let's pitch in and buy an ad in it. How and what to tip your service providers.

It will be the first rejected ad buy.

It would be better if they provided us free bottled water, mint and condoms so we can give to pax for a 5 star experience.

 

[merkurfan]

Im not giving a male rider a 5 star experiance with a condom.. i gotta draw the line somewhere.

 

[Realityshark]

Our low rates are paying for this bullshit.

 

[merkurfan]

New lower rates and higher commmsions.. uber says you will make more money.

No wonder they have troubles keeping a cfo. They are using government math.

Travis would give us his extra condoms, all extra small

I got an idea, maybe uber will send us each 50 copies and then we can sell them to our riders. That will help us make more money then we're making now.

No. Send Uber drivers 50 copies each (printed w/"first edition"); the drivers ad a tag of $1 to each one. Walla! $50 in the drivers' pockets.

Did anyone get the humor? "First Edition" -- That could be worth something one day.

 

[MrBear]

[MrBear]

Type up an official-looking card and insert the "blow-in" in the book. Blow-ins are the subscription cards that fall out of magazines for those not in the know (like I was until 3 minutes ago.)
