You are correct. My stepson is extremely smart (and ruthless about business) that I don't fear for his future. He will be successful no matter what I do. I wish I could have taught him a little rational thought before he got older. Success in business already drives him. He might be Prime...
I like to think that my job security, which is all about my particular job, comes from my continual striving for perfection within my department. Other people are dependent on me for job security but I don't feel I'm dependent on them.
You make your own security by providing a dependable product/service that consumers/users can not do without. Why should an inferior product be propped up by the rest of us?
Uber's board sacked their CEO, Travis Kalanik, about a month ago and I'm told by one of my friends in Chicago, who is an uber driver, that things are changing drastically. They added a phone line for uber drivers to call when they have issues, they added tipping on the app for drivers to accept...
Why? Why should an obsolete profession be propped up by people just because they are not keeping up with the computer dispatching that competitors are better at doing well?
Travis is massively underwritten by his friends in the Bay Area of SF/Oakland (Google and other start-up employees) to fight where ever necessary in the courts to make it legal for ride share companies to operate in every city in the world.
I believe that Uber and the taxi industry can coexist very nicely if they help each other improve and stop trying to say one is always better than the other. I know nobody wants to talk about trains at this time but they coexisted with the taxi industry for as long as most of us can remember...
If they do you may email Uber to get the charge changed to the A to B direct route. Charges are both calculated by time and distance. You would get the shortest time and distance.
There were short rides in Portland that were as low as US$4. Let it build it's base and I'm sure Uber Brighton will get to be operating in an efficient manor after a few days.
It was $35 US from O'Hare Airport to River North West near Milwaukee Ave. That was the demand rate(high surge) since things are really busy on a Thursday night in Chicago.
Yes, Cubs beat the Giants in their first playoff game--called the National League Division Series--it was between the team with the best W/L record in the National League and the wild card team. San Francisco had to beat NY Mets in a one off to be able to play Chicago. It took 4 games for the...
I had one hell of an Uber driver in Chicago. He picked me up at O'Hare Airport terminal 5 BA. It took almost an hour and a half to get to the Condo off Milwaukee Ave due to heavy traffic on a Thursday at 10:00 p.m. Chicago seems full of traffic congestion at all hours. I didn't even notice how...
