Lyft reaches into our pockets again

Other

Every change Lyft makes ends up hurting drivers. Now they have lowered how many points you get for every dollar of base earnings, which means to reach any status here you have to drive more and accept more lousy rides. At this point, it almost doesn’t make sense to turn the Lyft app on anymore. At the very least, they are encouraging even more cherry picking when it seems like what they really want is people to accept more rides. For me, I would have to now earn about 500 more dollars per month in base fares and tips in order to get to the same status level. It is amazing that this company has no concience when they continue to just cut driver pay every couple of months.
