Da willste wegen deinem Bienen-Daumen (es gab da gestern eine Konfliktsituation zwischen einer Biene, meinem Radhandschuh und dem darin befindlichen Daumen🙄) einmal nicht mit'm Bus fahren, versucht prompt nen #Lyft Fahrer dich zu scammen (wegen dem Rad Case extra LyftXL bestellt; war sonst nie nen Issue).

"Your case won't fit. Cancel Lyft and I'll take you there".

Jaja, alles klar.
Mit Lyft legen wir die Rückbank nicht um, ohne schon. 🥲

Ist auch nichts erste Mal, dass das Rad Case nen Toyota Highlander von innen gesehen hat.😉

Nach kurzer Diskussion hat er die Fahrt dann wenigstens gecancelt (Fahrer hat immer die Option "Too many passengers" um nicht gepenalized zu werden; ich müsste erst mit dem Support diskutieren).

Es ist komplett OK, wenn du das Rad Case nicht in deinem Auto haben möchtest, aber ab dem Punkt "Cancel and I'll take ..." ist dann halt jegliche Diskussion beendet.

Wer zuletzt lacht... - Jetzt nen LyftXXL bestellt zur Hälfte des Preises des LyftXL zuvor.

‘I don’t want to waste the gas’: Uber and Lyft drivers reeling as fuel prices soar

Drivers face dilemma of driving more or cutting back – and support from ride-share giants decried as ‘slap in the face’

The Guardian

@ai6yr

When an #Uber or #Lyft driver gets paid less than $0.725 per mile (every trip in NJ, anyway) the trip is a loss. That's before the driver gets paid for his or her time. Take a loss three out of five years and the #IRS calls it a hobby. Then every dollar spent by a rider is taxable. No deductions.

@azcoigreach

Throw a starvng dog a rubber bone.

I talked to a #Lyft driver about "No #tax on #tips ."

He told me a funny story. Lyft got him a 50% discount on Intuit Turbotax. No discount on the state portion, though. When he got done, the app told him to watch out for the IRS. With the losses he claimed--using the standard mileage deduction--his gig was in danger of being classified a hobby. He'd owe tax on the total fares paid by riders. No deductions whatsoever.

Tips make it worse.

Trying to get to work this morning. Sundays suck.

My work bus comes every two hours. And Lyft is in surge pricing because of the rain. I hate Lyft. It's cost me so much money over the past four months. I just wish the bus would cooperate.

Anyone got an extra $30 for a Lyft ride to work this morning since the bus will make me an hour late? 😭

Thursday. Just a few more days till Thursday. Then I'll be OK. I'll be OK.

@councilormorillo.bsky.social @[email protected] There does not appear to be a way to challenge these charges when you believe they have been applied incorrectly. That really sucks. #pdx #biketown #lyft

‘I’m done’: Rideshare drivers on the brink of quitting over higher gas prices

Millions of Uber, Lyft, DoorDash and Instacart drivers have no choice but to pay higher gas prices if they want to keep earning a living.

I rode #Waymo a lot during the 2024 fires in Los Angeles. I'm sorry this is not the negative #AI vibe of #mastodon, but it is really good, really smart, defensive and conservative, very safe. California #DMV reports on Waymo accidents are overwhelming, Waymo incidents are dominantly the fault of other human drivers. This is where AI wins, and now the increasing ridership is here. #Google is coming for #Uber and #Lyft. Looking forward to it coming to San Diego.
