Driver Stories
Darnell T. – NJ“I love when people ask why I drive [with] Uber. I was a designated driver in the military and spent 26 years in service. I like being able to have folks that trust me. With Uber, I can take care of my kids, go to practices and appointments. I can also finance my children’s education.”
Jean G. – FL“Flexibility is the main thing I love about driving and making deliveries. I can work and still live my life at the same time without worrying about sticking to the strict schedule other jobs have, which has allowed me to go to classes and earn my real estate license. Better yet, it’s work that gives me the chance to connect with people in my community and put some cheer into their day.”
Dave M. – NY“I’m a freelance marketing consultant in the NY/NJ area. Ride share keeps me afloat in between contracts. I also enjoy the public service aspect of driving. For example, I’ve serviced completely disabled people, stranded riders with automotive problems, and the elderly. In those moments, I feel like I’m really helping others.”
