    Wtf, nobody is making him work at Lyft. “I am faking damage to my vehicle and charging riders false fees to supplement my income because my wage is crap.” is not acceptable. What a terrible take.

      The other guy didn’t say it was OK though, you’re adding that part and then getting mad about it.

        Fair point, the person I replied to didn’t explicitly say it was okay or that they said they felt it was ok. I took their comment as a kind of indirect victim blaming, similar to how you hear people say things like “I wonder if that would have happened if she was wearing something more conservative” — that’s a bad assumption on my part, and I appreciate your calling me out on it.

          It could be a commentary on the type of people who gravitate towards jobs that don’t provide enough compensation, Lyft certainly doesn’t have that market cornered.

      Sure feels like its not nobody when its “everybody” in the guise of societal murder if you don’t work.
