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.


Stop. Please stop. The only people who like tips are the ones who receive them.
It’s a coming of age to all of us who did work for tips when we realize just how much more we made when that was the obligation.
I did not make as much money per hour as I made as a 16 year old until several years after people called me doctor.
As my European colleagues ask “why don’t you do it like us?” We do. Constantly. Well we try, but all the good people leave because they can make more money elsewhere.
And yes. This “feature” is to prevent money laundering. Not tipping.
Other countries bothered to make actual laws to take it out of businesses hands. All this inflation and the value of human life is still at sweet fuck all in the states
So what you’re saying is that wages are too low, got it.
