Just got this email from Lyft. Do you consider support them?
Yo that question is super easy. Failing it is your fault
Iām going to start referring to EE people as electricians now.
I canāt imagine going back to take taxis in the future. I donāt even remember how to do it.
Well, everything has a start
I think you have to call a phone number or something to get one š
CA dem will soon go after other companies. If they get more people lose jobs. There will be more supporting socialism
Yeah make more people dependent on government and tax anyone who is left to death
Why canāt Lyft hire employees to drive their taxis? Why are they āforcedā to stop operation? Are they lying?
Because most drivers donāt drive enough hours to be employees. And they are the moms trying to make some quick bucks between jobs, the college student trying to make up for tuition. Once categorized as employees, all these (majority) drivers canāt drive or they have to drive enough hours. And there is no flexibility for them to go online anytime because supply is allocated, think factory workers punching timesheet.
Thatās ridiculous. You can work 1 hour per week to be considered a part time employee in California. All the Uber/Lyft drivers I ever met drive for like 8 to 10 hours a DAY. If you donāt want to follow the local laws then donāt do business here. I still fail to see why you canāt follow the local laws.
Lol! Screw them. I hate Uber and Lyft anyways.
Why?
Stupid cisco. Uber/lyft improved life of many people. We need uber and lyft.
Maybe they should experiment by starting a taxi hailing platform? No destination, no prices .. just letting people call taxis via app .. customers pay what the meter says
Uber and Lyft should just sell logistics software to companies that need ride haul/deliveries. Becoming pure software companies and letting other companies using their software comply with local laws.
I think that's what the email says. Lyft and Uber have to change everything about their business model and how they plan to make money and prove the concept from square one.
Nope.
No
Hope they realize theyāre not helping as much as theyāre hurting with this.

CA legislators are the worst. Trying to solve problems that donāt exist. Nobody forces anybody to drive for Lyft or Uber - and if they donāt like the terms then they can stop doing it. But thanks to liberal snowflakes were soon back to having to call a taxi, hoping it will show up and then get screwed over when itās time to pay.. So yeah .. def open to supporting Luft and Uber
Devils advocate:- The same argument can be made against minimum wages or employment benefits that nobody forced them to take the job?
In the 70s and 80s, no one worked at a McDonaldās and rely on that to survive as a ācareerā. Time has changed. Itās sad
