It would be good to consider the reasons why certain people still feel it is a good idea to work/drive for a company such as Uber.

Is it a lack of alternatives? A "better than nothing" situation? Does anyone have insights?

I drive for Uber on the side despite my real job paying 7x more per hour. It's mostly an excuse to get out of the house and drive my car with someone else paying for the gas.
