This guy was very helpful and informative, and there was a really bad accident on the other side of the highway he was going to have to deal with on the way back. I was going to tip ~60% but apparently I’m restricted to about ~30%.
It’s very unfair and corrupt that a corporation of Uber’s size can limit tips to the workers that are the entire reason they exist.
It’s to suppress money laundering and fraud.
Uber is greedy, but this makes perfect sense. If they didn’t do this, they’d already be bankrupt or shut down.
