I think that Uber eats CEO Mr. Travis is an ownest man and he is working very hard.I also wanna believe that CEO's have no other choice then to make choices for the company and that brings possitive and negative changes with it self.I WORK FOR UBER IN AMSTERDAM THE NETHERLANDS AND I HAVE A LOT OF JOY DRIVING THE PIZZA'S AROUND ON MY SCOOTER. MR. KALANICK DONT WORRY ABOUT IT YOU ARE A TOP MAN AND NOBODY SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT THAT. SO HEREBY TO MR KALANICK. YOU ARE A TOP CEO!!!!!!!!!!
When things suck, at the end of the day, at least be glad you have a job.
Uber is modern say slavery and this CEO is a complete dickhead
bloomberg is a pussy
I hadn't heard about this incident before, but having read the article now and seen the video, I don't see what the big deal was. The guy challenged him, he challenged him back. From my perspective he did not flip out or anything. I must admit that the driver lost me when he said "you could charge whatever you want", I hate that kind of reasoning.
Generally speaking, Kalanick is a douchebag … but his argument is correct. And the driver is a d-bag for setting him up, recording him, and publishing it.
Sure, Uber may not offer the best conditions. But in this case, the driver began to complain and not the opposite. The driver has full control over the decisions he makes in his life so if he chose to work (and continue to work) for Uber, he also chose to accept the conditions they offer and the consequences that go with it.
Uber was initially (as already said in the comments below) advertised as a side business to make extra money with your car, not as a full time job. Plus, they give you the opportunity to make several hundreds (if not thousands) without any diploma, just signing in on a website and providing an ID. You cannot expect a load of money with a "job" that's that easy to get. Otherwise, everyone would do it and quit their full time job.
I am not affiliated to Uber or anything but it makes me mad to see that people just complain so easily while the CEO didn't actually do anything wrong with that driver. The press manipulates everyone so easily.
That's true that Uber should offer better conditions and not change the rates all the time, it's a pain for drivers and I can understand that. But Uber is not meant to be a full time job and if you work for them, YOU chose to do it and YOU accepted their conditions.
I know that many people will comment telling that I am cold hearted and that some people don't have other choice than to work for Uber. That's true for many drivers but that's not Uber's responsibility. Everyone has their own life path and that's the way it is. Life if full of decisions followed by consequences (positive/negative) and no one other than ourselves have the power to make those decisions.
#DELETEUBER I have a feel that this stock is gonna CRASH soon!
Don't like Uber….go get a cab or get a DUI.
This is how out of touch these Liberal CEOs are to the working class. I hope that company burns to the ground.
How the fuck does a glorified taxi driver get himself into 90k+ in debt who the fuck would credit him that amount? He's obviously the fucking idiot and the only people who feel sorry for this foreign piece of shit are liberal s scumbags who never worked a day in their life, or handled large sums of money and could see the idiocy in this driver's decisions.
Many new generation business owners seem to have abandoned the art of pubic relations, and it always leads to their downfall. There was a time not too long ago when you did not try, and make your business a part of a political discussion by either stating your own political interests, or arguing with political opponents. Libertarians used to constantly reminds their critics that businesses don't make political decisions, and look at what we have now. Many business leaders can't stop themselves from making political decisions, and causing distress for their shareholders. We've entered a brave new world of public discourse, and it doesn't look like it's going to end well for anyone.
Fourtanetly we stopped Uber in Germany.
Now the CEO takes lyft to avoid hidden cameras & being hoodwinked
Uber will throw away the drivers when they finalize their driverless cars. Why help them put you out of work?
if I was the driver I wouldn't know who this man was. I'll just say good night and end the fare. how did the driver figure out who he was
he wasn't arguing. that arab started it all
Kalanick you can buy any gold digger you want to have sex, but never you will know the meaning of free sex and love. You sick bastard.
Kalanick is a butthole. Use Lyft and send Uber a message that you can't mess with your "sub contractors" like they do.
applause to you Driver ,for speaking your mind in a Proffesional way
i have to say thr Driver is very Composed

I read it somewhere online Uber is slavery and customers who use are racist. So many issues is this country Jobs, leadership, loans
Uber don't care about their drivers. With autonomous cars coming drivers will be replaced fully.
gonna install the app and uninstall it just to say i uninstalled it lol
All this BS yet the dude is still driving for Uber….Entitled assholes. If it was so bad you'd quit, but you don't because it isn't. You just got so entitled to the heavy income you had in the beginning.

"Good luck to you too..But I know you're not going to go far…"
How could you lose $97,000 because someone gave you an opportunity to earn more side cash?
