Obviously this isn't for public consumption, but you might want to know:

If you CLOSE the Lyft app while receiving a ping, and leave it closed until you know longer hear the ping:

1. Your Streak will be preserved
2. Your Sticky will be preserved
3. If you had a DF running that wasn't yet activated (made "used") by a ping or trip, it will remain so

Do you think there is any risk in using a receipt creator?

I've done Uber for 7 years / 25k rides. I've had to make plenty of vomit reports and I've always been paid $150 without a receipt, until now.

I don't have an opinion on that.

What I've done in the past is simply attach another photo of the mess where it says to put a receipt. It will allow it to be submitted as long as A file is attached in that slot, and I've never had it kicked back because of it.

I don’t. It was so dead, I just let it expire a couple of years ago. You’re sweet to ask!

Anybody ever tried to access a copy of their data report? I’ve been requesting from Uber because they’ve been super shady to me lately and they’re being even more shady about giving me a copy saying I have to give a specific reason! Then I give and they it’s still nothing….

Hi Duane,

How are you?
I remember in 2017 drivers met or you said lets meet meet at ihop on soldiers field road. I couldn't attend at that time. So we i didnt have a change meet you.

If you will be available nowadays we can meet at Starbucks on soldiers field road near mc donalds.

Best,

Without disrespecting you this was not a strike. This was a protest and yes, I did participate. Instead of working on a Wednesday I took the day off and I worked on Sunday. It was simple and I made me feel better.

Hey, I saw your post from 2018 asking about premier rides in LI. It’s been sometime since then but I wanted to ask you whether you’re still driving for Uber/lyft or not? I’m trying to do Uber premier only but it looks like I barely get any rides. Could you please tell me how you’re doing or did it?

my name is Ken also, I see that you have been doing this for a long time and I am very new at it. Is there any way you would be available for lunch, coffee, a call or any other form of communication? I know you can't take time out for every Tom, dick and Harry that needs advice, but I'm hoping you might.Thanks for your time either way. Ken 1

You seem to know what is going on in the Boston area and I am just starting out, I have a little more than 600 rides and need some help understanding some things I've noticed. The offers I've been receiving lately a so low I can't imagine anyone surviving on them, but it's only been the last couple/ few weeks. You c same?

I find them pretty good on passing the tips on, they don't want to get caught doing that. What I find is the base pay for jobs with good tip varies radically for same distance jobs. This leaving you with no where to go as they just say we told you what we were offering and you accepted. So there is no such thing as getting paid for what you do plus tips.

90% of the 45+ minute ride from Thousand Oak, Newbury Park, Westlake, Oak Park are all going to LAX. When I was still driving I would just send a text, "can only do a ride going to LA, No Santa Barbara or Palmdale." Like I said, 90% are going to LAX, 5% are going to Bob Hope Airport, and another 5% to Hollywood or Santa Monica. I would just sit on those 45+ minute rides.
