I tried an earlier route today instead of an evening one. I got to the Gainseville area about 11:45 and worked six hours. $39.08I am told that Thursday through Sunday is much better during the Summer with most of the UF kids gone. Until they return in the Fall it’s slim pickins. So I will try Thurs-Sun. next. It is possible also that Mon-Wed might be a little better from 5to 10AM because that is when most of the good flights arrive to GRA. I think I will go into Ocala (just 8 miles away) on Mon-Wed and see if I can equal what I did in Gainseville on those days. Overall, I still say Uber is a better income opportunity in a large, metropolitan area. Today was the first day I was ever creeped out by someone I picked up. Two very arrogant middle eastern men in their 20’s. Very rude, bossy. One kept talking on his phone to someone in his native tongue and mentioned my name a couple of times. The scary part is that their destination was an adult sex shop. While such activities are against their religion, I remember that the night before the 9-11 attacks some Muslim men in Daytona were seen at a strip club and later were getting drunk at a bar. As the story goes, they made a remark to another customer that something big was going to happen the next day. This was actually on the news. Some say that when Muslims are about to carry out a suicide attack, that Allah permits them some indulgence before their death________________
When you get paged on your smart phone, the name and distance of the customer comes up, along with their customer rating. If their rating is below 4 stars, I refuse the request and it gets passed to the next closest driver. When you accept a request, your name and pic pops up on the customer’s phone and the apx time it will take for them to get to your location for the pick-up. Probably 40% of my customers are Muslims________________

I can’t help but see the irony in this, but all the same I pray for your safety. $40 for 6 hours is not good, hopefully you didn’t have to drive a lot of miles. Gainesville is 25 miles one way, sadly. A couple of times I’ve gotten calls out in the country while about halfway there of people needing a ride to UF or something. That helps a little. The former principal at the High School I work recently retired and moved back to Georgia. He Ubers part-time and makes hundreds of dollars a weekend________________
