Agree. I just used Uber again, local ride to pickup car from shop, total 7 miles. The cost was something like $10. The guy was a FT Uber driver and said that he works 10 hrs a day for $60 average. I left a $5 on the seat as I exited and didn't give him a chance to deny if he was so inclined. I think being an Uber driver makes much more sense for folks who have regular jobs with a commute. They are already going that way, why not pickup some cash on the way.
