I don’t have a car and don’t drive. My post shared what drivers have always told me over the past couple years. If you’re willing to drive for Scoop, you can also drive for Uber or other ride service.

Then why are you not doing it every day and recouping your costs? Seems kind of stupid to me that you're flushing money down the toilet if it's such an easy thing to do with Uber.

I’m not doing it at all because I don’t have a car - I only ride using this app.

Picking up someone on your way to work could be ideal or a challenge if you need to get to work early. I’m not sure what your point is - it should have zero opportunity cost or it’s a bad deal? Does your current job have any opportunity cost?
