Once Uber is well established in a city, ambulance use declines by seven percent which results in ambulances being more available for truly emergency cases.

Not sure if those with insurance would choose Uber though.

I’ve used Uber twice now. No problems yet.
I have access to our Uber Eats at work. Any interest in when people want McDonald’s and how much they spend?

Yes, I would be interested. My first thought is drunks in the evening for an average McDonald's bill of about $14. But now I am still thinking lunches for $9.

I still cannot believe people get MCD delivered. Their food does not travel well, need to eat right away.

I can. For certain people McD is
as gourmet as they'll ever get.
They grew up on foodstamp
McD, it's all they know.

I can’t believe how many people wanted it on Christmas Eve. There were no drivers, so I guess they staved to death.

Haven't written about Uber lately, too boring.
The driver I had today was a pip. He started
right off bitching about how Uber makes
more on a fare than he does and how without
tips he can't make it.

I play dumb and ask him if he's trying to get
a tip out of me. He hems and haws and says
I don't understand what it's like to drive
people around for a living. So of course I
have to tell him about being in the taxi biz
myself and he got very nervous because
he knows it's illegal to solicit tips. He kissed
my ass for the rest of the trip. LOL

Makes no sense, the driver keeps about 75%.

Makes perfect sense, he wanted a tip. So
he lied. He cried and cried how he can't
make money on what they give him.
