    I’m aware. I assumed it was understood that this all gets averaged at the pay period (ie payday). I chose to frame it that way because I wasn’t aware of Uber’s payout schedule or pay period. I looked it up and they are calculated on a weekly basis. So if you average below minimum wage across the week Uber would/should be responsible for the difference.

      It’s a common talking point for people who don’t believe in tipping. Lots of “it doesn’t matter if I don’t tip, they’ll still get minimum wage from the restaurant” justifications. It completely (and likely intentionally) misses the fact that the employee isn’t getting minimum wage adjustments on a per hour or per shift basis.
