Ep. #172 Ep. #172 Thirsty Goose, unfair uber deactivations, and say my name
Send us a textWho knew gigs could be so wild? We're here to bring you a behind-the-scenes look into the everyday challenges and peculiarities of working in the gig economy. With stories from Uber drivers including their struggles with unexpected passengers, the fear of battery degradation in electric cars, and their thoughts on Uber's new feature to combat unfair driver deactivations, you're in for a ride. In the second part of our discussion, we take you on an unusual detour. Ever heard of a portable urinal named Thirsty Goose? Well, it's a thing, and we're breaking down its features, accessories, and potential usefulness for drivers. From there, we shift gears to discuss safety precautions when using Uber, including essential tips like checking license plates and the driver's name before hopping in. We also introduce you to Wridz, a new app that offers a subscription-based model for drivers. Not to forget, we sprinkle in our thoughts on a strange encounter involving a foot fetish at a car show. You never know what you'll encounter in the gig world!To wrap up our session, we delve into personal experiences like the anxiety of running out of power in an electric car and the challenges of dealing with multi-stop rides. We believe in open conversations, so we also touch on the controversial subject of passengers doing their makeup in the car and how it affects us as drivers. Our aim is to bring you a comprehensive discussion that combines insights, laughter, and tips for your journey in the gig economy.
