Took one cab ride in the last 2+ years and the scumbag driver pulled the ‘I don’t have any change’ routine to scam a couple extra bucks from me. Because You are a nice guy with the Ubers and Lyfts. I suspect these are dickmoves probably played on people who treat the driver like crap. Or, it's just crappy Miami and it's catching fire there... Miami can be a ShiestHole...? Your cabbie probs stem from your 'tude towards them. That will be 5¢... Trust me, I know crazy. ?

Boca BIlls Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I would just call my bank and have them reverse the charge.
ALF Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 Self driving cars keep sounding like a better idea. I hate to see people lose jobs but this is inevitable .

Of course; as with any interaction with service people (cashiers, flight attendants, etc), the vast majority of the people who have ‘problems’ have them because they are a—holes. But yes, being in a ****ty part of Miami would increase the odds too. As for ‘cabbie problems’, your suggestion that I see/treat one class of hired chauffeur different than another is of course ludicrous. What you have forgotten is one of the key features (among many) that makes the Uber model superior: customer feedback. Bad customer feedback causes financial harm to the Uber driver and thus the model incents good customer service. So it’s no surprise the experiences with Uber continue to be positive (two more efficient and courteous rides today)

It's an uphill battle against the established automotive industry, though, who all seen to be trying to go it alone. 1

Not like a real job, is there really skin in the game? Just a side to get in on and out... Work when you want to. Feedback blows. Who cares in a meat market... Take one for a cool $150... Make the night. Not if they are getting in, making a quick $150... Maybe many times more by inattentive credit card statement watchers... ...Who the eff cares...

Who wants to deal with labor... Edited July 26, 2018 by ExiledInIllinois
