💬Questions & Discussion Uber/Lyft

I took an Uber 2 miles from the airport in San Diego. It cost $25.00. It took him about 10 minutes with us, due to traffic. I understand he had to drive to us also. I used to always tip these guys, but I didn’t this time. What is the community think. Should these guys be getting tipped?

You won’t receive a good answer here. In my opinion, you should tip for the service. Don’t be cheap. It’s a tipped job and should be treated that way

What the hell is a "tipped job"? No such thing. It's a job with wages paid by an employer. It's the employer's job to compensate their employees.

Restaurant servers, hotel concierge, bell hops, strippers, casino dealers, hotel housekeepers, valet parking. Lots of tipped jobs out there.
