There's a reason the charges are so little.

Yeah pretty much this exactly. Uber would be even worse because you essentially need $800 to get set up then you make $10 an hour. The business model is built to take advantage of the gullible, and while I've actually enjoyed it so far, it'd be a pretty #### way to earn.
It's good for someone like me who has an injury keeping them away from their regular job and wants to fill up 3-4 hours in a day a few times a week instead of being completely lazy and going on ei or something . Or would be a decent thing for someone semi retired. You make a little bit of money, keep busy, and its stress free. But if you're after part time work for the money I'd say go work at earls or something.
