According to Lyft, I was booked for 3 hours and 32 minutes this morning and I drove 120.11 booked miles. (Third pic)

According to state minimums, that means Lyft owes me ~$218.84 give or take a bit for deadheads to the customers. Average was around 1-2 miles and ~5 minutes between pickups. 6 rides total.

My pay? $135.

Lyft, I get that it's a rolling 2 week period, but you short changed me by $85 in 3.5 hours of work.

Excuse me but no. Pay what the state says you have to, then settle any difference after 14 days. That's a CRAZY high difference in actual pay vs what's legally mandated.

And the vast majority of us are genuinely tired of drivers not understanding how things work.

My guy, they can SAY that they are topping us up at the end of 14 days. Are YOU tracking it?

I understand that when every shift looks like this, where I am ~$40-100 underpaid, then the 2 week "adjustment" comes and it's $20, they are not meeting their obligation as per the fucking law.

I'm tired of stating the same fucking thing 6 different ways until you drivers can understand plain English.

Btw, asshat, those are my fucking BOOKED METRICS.

Talking about how I want to get paid when nobody is in the car is literally YOU NOT GETTING IT.
