    Uber is a waste of time IMO because of the wear & tear on your veichle in the long run. Having a CDL eliminates that unless you become a Owner Operator & then you will have to make sure you watch your financial records including your truck. Once you stay away from tickets you will succeed as a trucker. In life you have to sometimes see things as a blessing in the long run.
     
    D.Tibbitt and hopeful eyes Thank this.

    NEVER. But who cares. I already knew this company very well, that's I am here among truckers. Everything happens for good. The good is that now I will hurry to join you wonderful truckers.

    Study the pre trip, you will be ahead of the game.
    As said above, keep quiet and you are not there to make friends.

    Yes, they are. It doesn't happen a lot but it happens. If a driver and a customer have a major shouting match, or even a minor one, there are companies that will fire the driver just to keep the customer. It's not right and it's not fair but that's the way it is.

    Sorry for asking this question. But why be quite? Why not be friendly and make trucker friends?

    Shouting match is different. Obviously a bank employee will be fired too if he/she is a bad mouth. But false accusations in case of Uber is different. They just deactivate you over false accusations without any investigation.
