[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]re: hourly.....EXTREMELY helpful.  Thank you ! [/quote]

Take it with a grain a salt.  I'm in the top 1% of both earnings per hour and driver rating.  I'm also on the original uber commission of 20%, while any driver that signed up in 2015 or after has to give up 25%.  I've got four years of experience doing this and many thousands of trips under my belt.  A few drivers are very profitable ($20+/hr), a TON do fair to ok ($10-20/hr), while the bottom earning <$10/hr is either driven out of the game or into debt/bankruptcy.

[quote=Anonymous]Am i supposed to sit up front with the driver or in the back seat? Not sure what the right etiquette is...[/quote]

Sit in the back.  Since a majority of trips have just a single rider or a pair, just about every driver has their "setup" for the rider to have the most comfortable ride possible in the rear passenger seat.  And it's just tradition at this point to sit in the rear when you're paying for a ride.  Riding in the front makes it awkward for the driver because you're in "their space" a little more than you need to be.[/quote]
