    If you have a job providing transportation, then you are on-call, whether you’re transporting customers or not. And you should be paid for BEING on-call. This is a standard practice in several industries.

      Eh, it’s not quite the same as other professions. If a sysadmin gets an after hours call, they must work it. If a ride share person is offered a fare, they can accept it or turn it down.

          Possibly, but it doesn’t have anything to do with being on-call.

            Well now they can stop pretending they’re not employees and actually treat them like employees.
