Reply to comment by ChrisGeritol in LPT: After you've flown in to an airport and need a ride, consider a taxi service rather than Uber or Lyft. by firkin_slang_whanger

I was at a work trip in the UK and for some reason the Uber driver told me that they know when the flights come in and they all turn off their app to make the rates go higher.

I was very annoyed at that. Even though my trip was 100% covered by my company, what about the times I'm just traveling on my own?

I didn't tip the guy. Fuck that shit.

That's the only way they can get decent pay. Uber and Lyft pay shit
