Anyone need a lift to/from the airport? Sacramento or San Francisco?

Let me know. My son is here and needs the business.

It cracks me up to see all the Uber drivers parked across the freeway from the airport every day/night. Must always be 20 plus out there at all times. The sheriff has chased them out of there more than a few times and now they have to park up and down N. Bayou Rd.  All  chasing fares just like a taxi driver.  I bet by the time they factor the wait time, deadheading, etc they can't be making more then $12-14 hr. Gotta be hoping for some nice tips I assume.

Yes there are a lot of them out there. My son started with UBER and at the San Francisco Airport they have a lot set up where they can go into and wait. When someone calls the first one in is the first one out. So depending on the traffic you can wait for quite some time. He has since went to LYFT and has done quite well. He actually works both at times.

 

He does have some corporate customers that call him on his cell phone and he goes to pick them up and then they call him through their smartphone to start the LYFT service.

He has quite a few repeat customers and he does quite well with that.

If anyone wants to sign on, let me know so my son can refer you. He gets a referral bonus and I think the

new driver gets one too if they book a certain amount of rides during the first month.

Uber is great, I used them for all my taxi needs during my travels. Don't even consider taxi's anymore, with Uber I get driver info and location status every time I use it and they're much more reliable and cost effective then using taxi's.

My wife and I still do not have a smart phone so we couldn't do it. But, out son is in to it in a big way.

He is headed back toward San Francisco and trying to do some pick up's on the way.
