It is not ideal - in person training where they can physically verify you were there and agreed to the rules would be ideal - but it is, I think, as extensive training as you can practically implement while still keeping an all-virtual onboarding process

In an ideal world they would offer paid training and mentoring positions to the highest rated drivers and have them on-board new drivers with ride alongs and practical assessment.

So a minor aside from me, and I really don’t understand it: Why is everyone trying to get Uber to be a better ethical employer when their stated aim is to fire all the humans and replace them with robots.

I actually agree with this! Maybe the business model of Uber can’t actually be a completely inclusive space because when you don’t treat your employees like employees you can’t accurately apply guidelines that other actual employees would have

Okay but as long as that's how Uber works then people getting delisted for violating the ADA is still an unambiguously good and positive thing

The logic of "It's bad that this one guy got fired this way because all these other people get away with it" is shitty logic, even if it were true And it isn't true - Uber delists people all the time for this because they have to, they made a specific legal agreement to do so

The reason this is an ongoing problem is THERE ARE TOO MANY DRIVERS The churn on app-based rideshare is enormous, it's a selling point - it's how they roll out their service so quickly, anyone with a car can sign up within few days

Oh god, it’s almost like the business model is predatory and broken. ALMOST LIKE THAT.

Yeah okay So as long as the business model exists, and people have no better option but to use it, getting drivers fired is the best defense of disabled customers in this context It's a good thing People should be applauded for it

Yeah Arthur, why bother to fight the root of the cause. Fuck that it’s too hard

Someone who doesn't fight the root but fights the branch and manages to clip off a piece of that branch has in fact done more than a root-causes concern troll
