Maybe this rideshare business is more your cuppa chai.

Yuck

Ola, India's biggest ride-hailing startup, is heading Down Under.

It's the overseas debut for Ola, which will start inviting drivers in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth to sign up, it said in a statement on Tuesday.

Cabbies Prime Suspect In Slew Of Human Turds Found In A Sydney Street

Business owners in Sydney’s inner-west suburb of Ashfield are goddamn ropeable at the “daily occurrence” of finding human faeces in a nearby alleyway, and TBH, we would be too.

Tenants along Hercules Street have alleged that taxi drivers have resorted to using a vacant alleyway as a toilet overnight, and the resulting mess is almost enough to consider shutting up shop.
One business owner told The Herald Sun he caught a taxi driver dropping trou over the weekend, saying “I understand drivers are expected to work 24/7 but surely there’s better options than this.”

I guess Trump would call where they come from a shithole

Well, I don't understand it. Is it the same reason you supported Clive Palmer or the strike?

For your own self interests?

What are you talking about? What 'strike?' Palmer had zero to do with Cabs. In fact, I think he is a Uber supporter.

Last election in Qld, I voted PHON out of self interest, and it is a totally justifiable self interest.

You joined the Palmer United campaign because Palmer was a bastard, you said, but YOUR bastard. You organised a certain strike for the same self-interest.

So what actual principle do you disagree with Uber on?
