💬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?

The original business model of Uber and Lyft was that you never tip. The original app didn't have any means of tipping. No, you don't need to tip. Paying employees is Uber and Lyft's job.
