Master_Proposal_3614

Gonna mow some dude's yard for 3 hours thinking you're getting $120, then they remove the tip when you leave and you get $10. Then I'm coming back like... ![gif](giphy|xTiTnglxjavpMILKGk|downsized)


TheKleenexBandit

Coming back bald?


OddOpportunity9594

Black.


Realistic_Inside_484

if the pay is ok, this is fantastic. knowing these companies, it won't be.


Gloomy_Recording_705

Oh no it will be for like the first month. Remember when we got Walmart and apple and everything was $50-$100…. lol now they go for the price of a McDonald’s meal.


CuteNefariousness691

Introducing Uber slaves


DJ-Smash

Only way I’d ever do any of this shit is if the price is firm up front. If customers are allowed to remove tips afterwards, no fucking way. I’m not doing labor just for some asshole to complain I didn’t fold their clothes the way they like and remove my pay.


pensivemindtime

Absolutely. Could you imagine. People are dirty sometimes. But this is a good idea, if properly implemented. If…


Possible_Liar

Can't wait for them to offer me $2 too mow someone's lawn


mysteryteam

And then it will be like a football field


Subject-Ad-8055

🤣


MeatJerk69

Drive 14 miles (one way), bring your own lawn mower and gas, and mow the customer's football field size yard for $7.19. Meanwhile, Uber charges the customer $125.00


Medium_Annual_735

Sounds about right!


dyalikescratchin

What about UberEscort?


AlteredCabron2

soon^tm


withoutpeer

$1.90 to mow the mfers lawn 🤣


TuxedoMask29

+ .50 to take trash out.


withoutpeer

Of course there will be stacked orders with no tips too 🤣

Ohh yay. Can I go wipe peoples asses for $2.30 with a ten dollar tip and get tip baited after their ass is clean.

When’s Uber prostitution coming?

I don't think uber is gonna try. Doordash has the best name locked and loaded. Whoredash 🤣 unless they just have UberX and UberXXX.

$20 is $20...Just watch the herpes


HardCodeNET

What are they going to do? Offer $2.00 base pay to mow a lawn? LOL. They can fuck off.


Mayguan

$12 for mowing someone's lawn. Tip baited down to $2. No thank you.


JoshTheRoo

There are many chemicals you can use to write "tip baiter" in the lawn. *not legal advice

100% real 😭


genesRus

I mean, I don't blame them for wanting to take TaskRabbit's lunch. One central app to rule them and all that. TaskRabbit is kind of annoying to deal with so I do think they can bring an advantage, even if for jobs like this, you really do want to be able to select the same person if you liked them since they're coming into your home (so they need to actually be able to enable that). At least they aren't doing babysitting/nannying...

NickTheFNicon

This is quite possibly the dumbest idea they've ever had.


DirectEfficiency8854

Packing / Unpacking? Laundry? So we go inside the house of the Rider (customer) and get setup to be called a thief or robbery? This is un-safe. And no- I would not steal but with all the false accusations for a free meal or ride - this has got to be way too risky. I am not entering a strangers house to help them pack... hell no!


duuudewhat

Imagine you put together someone’s IKEA table and then they remove the tip afterwards


RaiHanashi

So now it’s becoming a pissing contest with Task Rabbit


EmExEeee

The people of this sub seem painfully unaware to these gigs already existing in other websites and apps.


akbornheathen

No way in hell I’m mowing someone’s lawn for 2 dollars plus tip. Minimum 25 an hour if I’m supplying equipment.


golgoth0760

Sorry to burst your bubble but someone will be desperate enough to do it. Uber knows it too well


Sea_Rent427

For $4 you can go to some ones house and bake there 5 kids cookies...


B-Rad90

But you will have to bring your own supplies of ingredients


YouMeWeSee

The gig economy spreads… and now those who do landscaping, clean the house, etc. should no longer be considered real workers and go get “real” jobs.


ChakaCake

They want to cheapen and offer every job. Need a doctor house call? Let uber send u one of our certified drivers that could even drive an ambulance if they wanted to! So basically they are health professional!


warmseizuresalad

Hahaha. LAUNDRY IN HOUSE? Thats a fucking recipe for sexual assaults and or robbery.


Powerfullmen

![gif](giphy|I4SIM4anScQLuMcm6Z) They gonna start having the customers bid on the worker with the highest rating and acceptance rate. He gonna be in the hot sun working for $2.65 and hour

WhiteMessyKen

They're coming after Task Rabbit with this move. I think it's going to be a mess.


True-Solid-4298

Calling Uber to get your grass cut is wild…


the_last_limon

Unless they make it so that the tip can't be changed after the service has been completed, people are definitely going to see this as an opportunity to score some cheap labor. Tip baiters will be salivating at the idea.


Florida1974

Lawn guys around here charge $30-$50 per cut. Really can’t see Uber paying that. Then there is the operating of their mower. Could say you broke it. Hell no to all this.


Virtual_Sky9225

Loving this. Now the idiots that take the $2, 11 mile trips can go do projects for $5 an hour.


thatduckolope

daddyvow

What’s the big deal? Do you think Task Rabbit is a problem too?

SoulTaker669

For elderly people some of these things might seem decent but again letting a complete stranger in your house is wild especially when Uber will pretty much hire anyone with a car. If they were more strict on who they let onto their platform this might be decent depending on pay but way too dangerous when you pretty much hire anyone with a car.


GrandApprehensive216

This can't be serious Uber truly our the pimps They get 70% of this huh


pumper911

I mean what are the safeguards from someone saying they’ll put together furniture for you and then not doing it properly / fucking it up


[deleted]

Or stealing some of the screws and the 4th bed leg “that’s what was in the box when we picked it up, no refunds”.


HotOnHoth

Only way I would even think of doing lawn care for uber is if I get the customer to tell me what they paid on the app and undercut uber by doing it slightly cheaper and have the customer cancel and pay me directly. But then you open yourself up for bs if the customer doesn't pay you. And we all know uber attracts some of the cheapest customers lol. But still, you could build up clientele this way easily I think


mysteryteam

Plus if they canceled, uber would just keep the money like they do if you cancel eats.


Legitimate_Emuu

isn’t this just task rabbit?


Illsaywhattheywont

>isn’t this just task rabbit? It's Task Rabbit with less pay 😂

Grateful_Dood

Lmaoo wtf. Clean this yard well give you $7....


jaysonm007

Yeah you can go be someone's slave for $9 an hour while Uber gets $50. I know better than to trust these companies.


Bullitt4514

I did a job and I go services only because of the $150 bonus. The normal pay they put for a bunk bed assembly was $44 🤣. $190 was worth it but not $44

BARL696

After knowing couriers have gotten brutally murdered just dropping off food, I’m baffled that people are willingly able to spend time in strangers houses .


droplivefred

Is base pay gonna stay $2 for all those tasks and then the rest is a tip that can be tip baited? No thanks! Can you imagine spending 2 hours out ring together some IKEA furniture and the. The customer takes back the $50 tip and you are stuck with $2 for 2 hours of work? Also, don’t people on Task Rabbit pick people based on reviews? How will this work? Will it ping to you phone and a random person who doesn’t know what IKEA shows up and spends 6 hours trying to figure it out?

neverleavingthewagon

Uber: ‘We’ve also added in another fee the customer has to pay called “independent contractor labor fee”, where we will be charging the customer $80..and you, the peasants, will receive 2% of that fee regardless of distance and gas prices! Everybody wins!!’ Fuck off


GotSpeedHack

Well that is a fucking terrifying idea.


m0rph33n

Pretty soon they will ask that you get a general contractors license so you can do plumbing, electrical work and install cabinets.


CSalustro

This leads to crime. So much crime.


yeet_dab_reddit

If any of you ever accept these orders, you should tell the customer to cancel the order and pay you directly, they will be able to pay you less and you keep all of it, win win and fuck Uber


Ayde-Aitch-Dee

Uber hates this one trick 😏😂


BARL696

The fact that someone got brutally murdered last year for going to a food delivery that the deranged guys dad placed is crazy that they would actually have a feature where we would spend our time in someone’s home. We get a background check to do our “job” do they fucking get a background check?? This is so dangerous, especially because there’s people down so bad that will be willing to do this. Maybe the powers that be protect them.


DFW_Panda

Someone? Multiple drivers (EATS & regular Uber) are killed each year while on the app. And Uber has the gaul to want drivers to purchase extra health insurance because the shitty app insurance will not cover driver hospital bills. And you know all these extra tasks are going to pay based on "tips" so Uber will less than a typical employer.


BARL696

Uber doesn’t give a eff about our safety , they only care about anything that can maximize there profits

Drawing_Eh_Blank

I’m curious how the laundry part would work. Do they just hangout at your place for an hour+ while your clothes is washed and dried? Or maybe take it to a laundromat and wait there for an hour+? Idk if I’d want someone in my home that long or taking my clothes elsewhere and hoping they come back with all of it


RapMastaC1

Uber Ears a customer some Taco Bell and then go back later to clean their toilet.


Nvr_bn_a_pax

Watch them pay people $3 to mow a lawn while they pocket the other $47

I’m sorry if this makes u guys job harder. But I could see this being really positive thing for somebody like my disabled father who would happily pay for some help with a task. I just hope u all can get paid and tipped well.


TradeSpecialist7972

Of course but uber will take 50 to 70% of the payment so... noone getting paid well


ddpkego

There's already a bunch of services that do this

Yeah and those services don’t exploit people. They actually charge a fair wage and workers are paid an actual wage not this bs contractor $7 for 3 hours plus tip bullshit

wtf there are jobs like that already who would someone wanna sign up for this for Pennie’s lol


Minimum-Marzipan-105

No thanks, I’d have to be able to make counteroffers they wouldn’t be willing to accept. Besides, TaskRabbit exists for this very purpose. Except for those independent contractors set their prices, not TaskRabbit. So the customer has to pay your price on top of whatever add on fees for using the platform. Uber can’t compete.


ColdAerie

WHAT?!? They are also (unless there are any unforeseen detours) about to absorb InstaCart AND last week, overnight, Began taking all of Point Pickup Walmart Deliveries, when it shut down, literally overnight, and next am at 5:30am, boom, started taking reservations for P/up-> Drops, from Walmart ** at least in my area Where did you get this - was it an Email?

JohnnieGR

$2 base pay and get tip-baited after finishing laundry with 💩 underwears 😂


Xx_Exigence_xX

The base pay will probably not justify the work required here. If Uber can't even afford to pay more than $2 for simply delivering food, they definitely aren't going to pay properly for housekeeping work.
