It actually doesn’t make the car more crowded. The pool can pick up more people. It actually eases your commute because it will pick up drop 2 people off at the same stop without additional stops. I have had a pool which picked up and 2 people after making 2 individual stops. If they were on the same ride a plus 1 it would’ve been 1 stop.
Also heard of headphones?

I do it all the time for personal travel. Usually saves me 10 bucks a trip. That's one more🍸

OP or they could both use pool and split the lower fare saving money like you are. There’s nothing wrong with what they are doing. If you don’t want to ride with other people don’t use pool. Simple solution

Whats wrong with that?

I think what OP is getting at is they didn’t specify how many riders. With pool you have to change the number of riders if it’s more than one

Here’s what’s wrong with using uber pool with a +1:
- it makes the car more crowded
- I don’t want to hear you and your friends conversation
- there’s 2 of you!! Can’t you just split the regular uber fare or are you that cheap?!

And for my personal defense, I use uber pool to commute to work because I can use pretax commuter card for pool only

Omg uber pool is annoying. I make enough money to not have to circle around ta city to save $5

UK market is open only for niche skillsets ( Data engineer + analytics). Firms aren't interested in sponsoring rest all skill sets, as they can be filled internally.

Referral works, but the person who is referring you should have enough clout in the organization to present your profile!
