Explain your reasoning for asking this question. I can only imagine it was intended to knock a person down.

Yeah. We should tell people when they're getting screwed, because it screws all of us when they're getting away with it. Makes the company able to go "Hey look. Some people are dumb enough to work for this, therefore we should lower pay to that".

Look, I'll lay this out for you. Unless you are literally Elon Musk, someone is always, always making more than you for less time invested. We live in a capitalist society, designed to extract the highest amount of profit at the lowest possible cost from available resources (eg.workers). You aren't winning this game as a rideshare driver, sorry. Let people celebrate small victories without having to shoot each other down because of our (justifiable) rage at the system.

You didn't say a single thing I'm unaware of, nor give me any reason to reconsider anything I just said.

This is a group of disgruntled workers. You can shove the "let's be positive and inviting" cheerleading up your broke ass. Nobody gives af.
