June 28th, 2024 Podcast: Massachusetts $32.50/hr Sets The Tone | Uber Lyft Run Scared
Drivers in Massachusetts are gonna get a settlement PLUS $32.50/hr MINIMUM.
The rideshare community is changing at lightspeed right now. The apps are seeing drivers and riders find ways to become transparent: talking to each other more often. With this happening, more people are choosing to help drivers’ income situations by paying them…

I’m in California. The Bay Area. I just converted My first ride. Without Hum. I asked the rider how much Uber charged him. He said $47+. Uber was giving Me $22. I told him “I’ll help You and You help Me. I’ll do it for $35”. He said “Absolutely “ He paid Me $35 through Zelle. It felt Liberating! Thanks for all You do Jeff. God Bless.
Jeff brother, I guess uncle cause of our age gap. From the East coast, thank you for great content and great vision.
Will it be applicable for uber eats as well
You nailed it, Jeff. Here in CA, land of Prop 22, the loophole you talk about is in full force, especially since this summer has been shit business wise. They would throttle my workflow to the max, give me three $6 rides within the first half hour and then have me sit for the rest of the hour. It’s a good thing I have it in me to talk and read the room a bit and pick out passengers without the app and give them a sweet ass deal before they would even open the app. Massachusetts is in for a rude awakening if they don’t think this would happen to them.
and the Californian government is simply asleep
Uber will still make contributions to politicians, just not in their corporate name
Right around the 13:00 mark spot on again Jeff
$32 is not good deal for Ma-boston
IT'S GOT BE MINIMUM PER MILE
Leave Stacks of Private Rides Biz Cards with CONCIERGES FOR ALL RESIDENTS EXPOSURE …. Grocery Stores, etc. ~Tc~

!!!!!😅!!!!!
☆☆☆☆ = THANKU JEFF ~ PUSHING OUT THE COURAGE2DRIVERS = 2 TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR """FULL MONEY""" = U GOT THE KEYS 🔑 & CAR 🚗 = FUKE APPS !!!! ☆☆☆☆
Makes one wonder how much a person can take them for if they just simply screenshot all of the crap Uber pulls. If they would rather settle everytime… seems like a nice pay check before they have to really pay out to EVERYONE.
uber Needs To CHange Their Name to A More TRUTHFULL Names
"""UberBribery- A RideShare Company¡¡¡"""
I'm confused are they not paying anybody anything now per ride just the $32.50? Or is it $32.50 plus the ride amount?!
The Moors conquered and occupied Sicily for about 200 years. That's why Sicilians to this day have a darker complexion than other Italians.
Is your expedition still mot approved for uber? 😆 They got mad at the conversions. Was listening to this replay today while I worked 🤙
Riders! why the loyalty to the app?! Is it that you think the app will keep you safe? News flash, I got a call for a private ride while an Uber was in my car. He was cool with doubling up. I drove 4 miles in the wrong direction to drop off my client while the Uber was in the car and it didn't sound any alarms, the police weren't notified,….Nothing. Riders are as safe with the app as they are without the app. Furthermore let's say I'm a cop, working front desk, I get a call from Uber that a car stopped too long, drove miles in the wrong direction, hell even hit the help button and wouldn't answer when Uber called to see if they were ok. Yeah, real serious, I'm gonna take that reeeeaaallll serious. You know police are protected by supreme Court ruling to not be held responsible in annnnyyy way when anybody is hurt or killed right!? They won't go to jail even if they arrest somebody for assaulting you, let them go, and that person comes back and kills you in the same hour. They are 100% in the clear by ruling of the United States Supreme Court with exception of domestic residential cases where the woman is the victim only
Massachusetts is just another prop 22 job with a higher per hour. This is a loss not Victory.
Unions and the Politicians ARE the only economy in Massachusetts. Wait…….I guarantee they make us employees via the Unions. Trust me there HAS TO BE SOMETHING IN IT FOR THEM!!
Here's my confusion. Attorney Shannon Liss – Riordan, a Boston based labor attorney. Shannon has been filing lawsuits with Uber and Lyft all over the country starting in 2013 regarding independent contractors or employees. The first 2 lawsuits were in California and Massachusetts my understanding of the recent ruling in Mass. is the court action still continues regarding this one issue 🤔 So until the most important question is answered we wait for the final outcome.
You are so right hand out flyers and cards just went to my mailbox and uber is mailing cards to people with promos.
Jeff, you mentioned the moore people Say were never here they populated North Africa and Arabia. They were Muslims.
Walnut Creek CA. is a stronghold for white supremacy ideologies and behaviors. Walnut Creek CA. is a systemically racist city. From the lying racist Contra Costa County fire department who will frame an innocent law abiding minority by starting small fires “investigating” them then determining the “suspect” to be an innocent law abiding minority. They will then team with the lying racist Walnut Creek police department to harass and surveil the innocent law abiding minority to the fullest extent of the “law”. These are taxpayer funded commissioners approved city leaders sanctioned white supremacy hate groups.
There’s nothing better than knowing Jesus.
I have a LLC I use them like that and I saw that too they'll say you made this much and you didn't
The more I've listened to this the more I've come to realize that Seattle currently has the best model. Because it's based on time and distance unlike this Massachusetts deal. The podcast started off being congratulatory towards Massachusetts and then it evolved to I'm not driving for $17 for 30 minutes. 😂 So forget about Massachusetts, forget about Minnesota, forget about California and forget about New York – I think the model to look at is Seattle which operates on a true rate card. Of course Jeff I know that you don't care about HUM pings but it would still be nice if they find the money to market more.
Hey Jeff, with your knowledge and unique skill set – have you ever thought about requesting a meeting with or writing to Arizona legislators about how Arizona drivers are underpaid? Especially in light of what just went down in MA. Let's also not forget Seattle that also got a great deal. Like you said, AZ is a hot bed when it comes to events and the several month influx of winter visitors. AZ deserves better and I nominate you to lead the charge!
They play the BIGGEST BS IN BOSTON!!
A 7-mile ride in this town takes 40 something minutes most days, and they want to pay you peanuts. I don't play this game. When the tunnel is closed, it's even worse. I go right down to New Hampshire, where a 7-mile ride is 9 minutes. But now Uber won't even tell me where the ride is going, just the distance to pick up (in New Hampshire).
This is what I'd like to know, I'm driving in Massachusetts. When are they going to file a lawsuit for all the years we have been disenchanted with what's been going on with Uber?? There is a commercial spot on the radio out here asking rideshare drivers to contact this law firm for a class action lawsuit regarding independent contractor issues. This will be done in California?? So why isn't MA doing this ????
jeff its so crazy we had the summer fest in milwaukee surgeing like crazy but the police blocks the event to where no uber drivers or lyft drivers could even enter the event to pick up riders how stupid is that how can i make this stop?????
I'm only 30 mins from Mass in about to switch over lol
The insurance need to be taken out let driver have they own commercial insurance way better and more more for the driver
15:55 it'll be EV's only or A.I. driven. They raise prices we win
Damn Ja Rule didn't bring in anything but bumbs
Well now… The plot thickens. So glad you got that article out there, Jeff!! 🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Sounds like Tony West May have finally read the Costa case. 02-679 (6-2003). Drivers in the states where they are being recognized with quasi-employee benefits are now able to claim "Mixed Motive" on Uber, now. Uber won't be able to afford all those discrimination complaints, or will they? (asking Tony).
Hey Tony, if you're reading this, the Costa case was the chess move that checkmated employers back in 2003. ALL Human Resource departments were informed across the U.S.
If it's going to take a lawsuit in every state to get drivers their money back, Tony, then let's start with Nevada where the Costa case began. Shannon Lis Riordan should have caught this employee/independent status conundrum years ago, before the tips stealing case was settled (back in what year) 2016?
And then Alex Rosenblat writes Uberland in 2018 exposing Silicon Valley's plan to re-write the employment laws based on technology that operates close to a CAD system that dispatches cops to a community request for assistance.
It Does not matter if the techs' objective is to match drivers with riders. The system is being paid for by the riders, who are voters and taxpayers, just as these same people pay their taxes for a system that allows a dispatcher to connect squad cars to a location where the community needs some kind of assistance. The difference is that the police dept is government and Uber is not. It's a corporation… like Caesars.
The Costa case has never been overturned, Tony. It was won 9-0 against Caesars. If you advised Uber to play it's drivers and/or had anything to do with those illegal "independent contractor status" written contracts, that include arbitration clauses that intimidate drivers and restrict them from having their day in court, that would allow any of them to cite the Costa case as precedent to back their discrimination claims against Uber, then perhaps you should contact all the Amicus Brief writers, including THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE lawyers, who also wrote a brief supporting Costa, and inquire why it was so important that the Costa case prevail at SCOTUS with a unanimous decision.
If you don't think that artificial intelligence can be sued for discrimination based on ANY of the protected interests of workers in any company just because a contract tells the driver "you agree that you are an independent contractor," to escape the punishment of discriminating against all these drivers, AND DECEIVING RIDERS INTO DISCRIMINATING AGAINST DRIVERS, too, then think again… BECAUSE…
all the drivers can look to all the names in their driver apps, under "LEGAL," and include all the app techs' names and programs that worked together to create this business model that keeps the argument going to put more money in your pocket, Tony.
The app techs can now go help set up GOOD Independent Contractor business model apps without being restricted by Noncompete scare tactics via Uber's NDAs.
Drivers are putting Unity back in their own communities, now, with or without Uber's so-called permission… or yours.
Everyone knew what an employee was AND what an independent contractor was before Uber came along.
Everyone. So stop deceiving our elected officials in our states with your legalese.
Pay the drivers back.
I love your 100% LOLOLOLO
My target pays 60 plus an hour that's half what I want
$32 an hour still ain’t enough it’s a start though. But for me driving my vehicle it ain’t enough.
It’s $93,000 a year to live comfortable in Vegas. They go have to come wit it.. I’m converting off top.
They did the same thing for the whole country of FRANCE, THE WHOLE COUNTRY.
DOWNLOAD your DATA from Uber.
It has all messages via riders, support. Has all trips etc.
You know what I bet it has a lot to do with that wealthy guy that check to see if the writer got his tips I forgot what his name was but I believe that was one of the investors in Massachusetts, yeah that billionaire guy. As you know, wealthy people have friends in high places which most likely are politicians.
I just drove 200 miles with Uber for $84. This is ridiculous.
thats on top of the fair right?
I like what you say big bro. You not lying. Fffff this raises raise these offers. All it does is to keep you more on a leash. These app will find a way to roll over on you. Convert convert and make the customer yours. I want be part of the 300. Luvv from Philly
In new York state is 27 dollars an hour but is still too low .thank you brother for the efforts to educate drivers.
$5.42/ride for 6 rides in an hour is $32.50/hr. They gonna work that driver to death or that driver is gonna not take the $5.42/ride and hurt themselves. Seems Uber/Lyft wins no matter what.
They can’t leave a state because it proves drivers are not IC’s. The minute they leave, and drivers can’t do the same job they did on the platform, drivers can sue for misclassification
This money was there all along. Read your statement.
