Definitely true in NYC but Uber is global, in places like France they are lowering the bar for drivers' working conditions.

In Lisbon, Portugal it's like NYC. Any expat or local will tell you that they feel infinitely safer and more comfortable in an Uber than they do in a normal taxi.

Eehh, care to explain ? I just came back from Paris and I used Uber multiple times a day while there, including to go to the airport. It was very convenient. My drivers didn't seem unhappy to be there. So, what's the problem ?

If they look unhappy, maybe the customer will give them bad ratings for bad customer experience…
