    As someone who lives here and doesn’t drive, services like this are extremely valuable to me

        I agree and I’m happy to pay more. I just hope this doesn’t go away.

        Why do these drivers get paid a 50% higher wage than minimum wage? EMT drivers don’t even get this much

            That’s what the minimum wage is for.

              Sounds like somebody feels entitled to another mans labour at certain prices lol

                Sounds like someone thinks a particular class of worker should make more than their peers for arbitrary reasons.

                  I think min wage should be set where a person can live without transfer payments from the state and food banks

                    Cool, then Uber drivers should make minimum wage and the push should be to increase minimum wage.

          You’re right, and I’m angry too.

          EMT drivers should be paid more (as well as the Uber/Lyft drivers)!

        • Because part of the time they aren’t being paid at all for their work and a good chunk of that money goes into the vehicle and fuel itself. After accounting for all the unpaid labor hours and expenses, it probably still comes out sub-minimum-wage.
