This video is about an Uber driver's day on the job, with the goal of completing 20 trips to earn $200. The driver shares their earnings after each trip, providing a transparent look at their income. They also offer tips and insights, such as the importance of staying busy, being prepared for unexpected delays, and considering the location and estimated time of each trip. The driver's ultimate earnings total $177.73 for 14 trips, falling short of their goal due to missed opportunities and cancelled rides. Despite this, the video offers valuable knowledge for fellow drivers and those interested in the gig economy.
Thanks for the feedback… I’ve heard from different areas to combat this look at the busiest times & trends on the earring chart …. And depends on the market
You're a positive person, and it shows. The math didn't work out this time, but I do find $10 is my average ride. I've tried to find ways of making more, in my area it take about 4 hours to do 10 trips because of the number of drivers on our small area. So to hit 20 trips it takes 8 hours.
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm new to Uber, can you tell me how you can see the time and distantace once you receive a ride? Once I click on the ride to accpt all I'm seeing is the pick up. You gave me some good tips, thanks from NH.
Once you accept you will only see the pickup location once pick up the driver there are three dots to the right of the name and that one will show you the drop off distance/location… let’s Go NH!!!
Hey!! I’m in Beaumont! I’m new, but my screen looks totally different. Never know where I’m going, Uber can’t show where I’m picking up and where I’m dropping off ? I randomly made a few trips to Houston. Lol
@@_Uber_Driving Hey, I just started driving and my app is new and updated too but it doesn't distance and pay. It just shows the pick up time and distance. Any thought's on what to do? Thanks from NH.
Hopefully this helps….When the trip request appears click the request tab. The trips will appear if there are more than one choose the highest paying one with least distance. At that point it will navigate you.
Uber navigation is not the best to go by when driving Uber I use Google maps 100% of my 8 plus years I never used Uber navigation strictly Google maps usually Google maps has closed roads on it so it picks out the bust way
Just to let you know, this is the only video I came across that allows comments. You have them turned off on newer ones. I'm curious how you decided to use this approach? This can work with food delivery, because you can usually at least get $1 dollar per mile. But you're well below that here.
Cool video but it looks like there is not much money to be made doing this. You said you make about 100 in 10 rides that take you about 4 hours. That's about 25 an hr take away car depreciation, maintenance, fuel, insurance so it goes down to probably nothing. I hope I'm wrong and I'm not judging, but it's just my thought.
It's not the same. Sure, you still pay car expenses whether you drive or not, but you pay much more when you drive your car 200 miles daily. Your car will be a broken-down, worthless wreck in less than 5 years, which is referred to as depreciation. It will require several times your average maintenance and repair costs, as well as several times your average monthly gas expenditures. Every single mile you drive, costs you money. For me, it's .39 cents per mile. If I drive my car 10 miles, it cost me $3.90 to operate my car. If I drive 200 miles for rideshare, I'm looking at $78, so of that $200 I earned, I netted $122.
I did 11 trips and made $200 today. I don't take every trip because I'm not driving 15 miles for a 2 mile ride.

You people need to learn to cherry pick the rides.

Your right!!! Do more!! Be more!! And Get more!!! Let’s go!!

@@_Uber_Driving Thanks for the info and reply, I'll try that next trip. NH is a small market and we don't have Trip Radar. Stay cool and safe, enjoy.

How does it look?
Same as mine...just shows there is a trip request. That's all
@adesuyioluwatobi6075 strange ….there is a 10 sec preview of distance and pay… may have update app if you haven’t yet … see if that works

I’ve thought about opening google while driving because of construction!!! Thx again for confirming the thought
Never accept every ride request, only take rides that make sense, money and time wise. Accepting a $4 ride that takes half an hour is idiotic.
Nice I see you’re in Texas. Do you ever go airport sniping?
I have … in and out!!!
How’s the Houston market, is it busy or slow?
It’s as busy as you make it!!
How many miles you have on the car?
I have about 120k miles. Thx for asking!! Let’s Go!!!

Thanks for the info!
I’m turning them all on now thanks I didn’t know…. I like the views and interactions of the community!!
My pleasure. Great. I hope you make a video where you explain your method and why you chose to do it.
@ShelterDogs as a matter of fact…. That’s a great idea!!!

It’s the same if I wasn’t doing Uber I still pay insurance and maintain the car and also still put gas;)
