Income of an uber driver
> Why is his daily mileage so high? He states he makes $1.10 per mile, drives 260 miles a day, but only makes $150 a day.
He's not paid for the mileage spent on the way to pick up someone, only after they get in.

Or on his way home (unless he happens to get a passenger going to his neighborhood).

Of course, but I'm surprised he's spending as much mileage picking people up as what he is earning driving them -- it suggests inefficiency in the dispatching system.
