TAKEAWAYS: My Nine Months as an Uber Customer Service Rep

TheBillFold has an Anonymous article about 'someones' life as an Uber customer service rep.
Our shift preferences were largely ignored, and we never got those T-shirts they promised.
Walking us through a PowerPoint deck from Legal, Hector made sure we understood to never refer to Uber drivers as “employees,” which wasn’t hard, since we weren’t technically Uber employees either.

One thing about the job I liked: It gave me an opportunity to feel like I was Robin Hood, giving away Uber’s money. We weren’t allowed to refund anything over $35, but anything under that number was fair game, and our managers were so overwhelmed with disrupting transportation—Uber Helicopter! Uber Zeppelin Rides!—that they rarely audited our tickets.
