    Can you elaborate on "unpdedictable"? All you have to do is taxi people around... easy work imo if you live in a heavily populated city.

    Other than that, idk man you'll have to check indeed.com to see what's around.

    Thought about signing up for Uber/Lyft in my Tacoma. But A) I get like 12mpg, and 3)I heard it's not really worth it anymore unless you're in a Prius

    The way uber is structured is more of a rip off towards the driver, but you work your own hours and still make money. Even with gas expense.
