“Pax didn’t tip, fuck them”. The problem is, yall expect tips when tips are optional. Yes they are nice, but YOU are the one that decided to drive for Lyft, so if you have a problem with the money you make with Lyft, go find another job. Stop trying to rely on getting tipped. I’ve been driving for Lyft off an on for almost 6 years, but full time since January while going to school and I make anywhere from 225-300/day in 7-9 hours of driving, BEFORE tips. The money is there, you just have to know where to look (yes I understand all regions are different with the pay and demand, etc.) and stop being so fucking picky with the rides. “oh I’m making less than a dollar per mile”. Deny. “this ride has a stop”. Deny. “this pax has less than a 5.0 rating”. Deny. That’s bullshit. Doing that shit every once in awhile is understandable, but doing it all the time, no wonder you don’t make any money. And bragging about a 10% or 30% or 60% acceptance rate, yea you’re cool, buddy. you don’t need to be a driver. And once again, if you don’t like the money, go find another job. I’m tired of all the bitching about not getting tipped. You want tips from every customer, go be a bartender, valet, or waiter/waitress.go wash cars. I make sure I get my money by making sure I average a minimum of $10/ride by the end of the day. So either accept what you are getting, adjust the hours you drive, or get another job.
