I will bet you a dollar - right f'n now - that you could advertise that gig on Craigslist and have takers. Was talking to my wife's ex-boss yesterday (we've stayed friends - they're great) and she relayed that she took an Uber black one time, got to chatting with the driver, and he handed her his card and said "next time, just give me a call." So now she's got a standing car service to the airport every Thursday and back every Friday. She likes it because it's cheaper, it's dependable, and she knows the guy now and trusts him. He likes it because he makes more money and has steady income. I'm sure Uber would fire him if they knew but since they don't, it's disintermediation all the way down.
