It's even worse (from what I remember of the last time I did Lyft on 12/8/2019, might be different now). Lyft would quote (estimate) and charge the rider say, $36, but according to the driver's rates for his/her city and time/mileage/etc. the ride's actual charge should be $25. From this $25 (not from the $36 actually charged to the rider) Lyft will still take it's 20% cut (even higher for newer drivers) and other fees and then pay the driver the difference (from which he/she still needs to pay all expenses).

Comment Re:15 employees in one Chicago store (Score 2) 47

While working at Caribbean Restaurants in Puerto Rico more than ten years ago (operator of, amoungst other stores, Burger King's,) I saw their maintenance department closed down and everyone there fired when they unionized. Caribbean Restaurants hired outside contractors for maintenance work, and only kept the department's supervisor.
