I worked for a competitor and it was VERY common where we had young kids (teens, early 20s) using stolen credit cards to order rides and then threaten the drivers if they didn't take them to stop and get drugs, pick up their friends, all kinds of nonsense. They would occupy the drivers for hours on end going all over the city. I'm not surprised at all by this.

If this world wasn't so politically correct, maybe I'd be able to use the only word to describe these people...

Is that real?
It must be one of them who took the vedio and then posted it.
It looks to me more like a game they were playing.
Or it might signal an anti-uber movement the taxi industry is starting with some safety issues to draw government's regulation/restriction on uber.

But regardless, all uber drivers should use their best caution in picking up their passengers.

None of those teens appear to be normal at all and should be in jail.

Hmm, and black lives matter? In the wake of police shootings and mass shootings of black individuals, I find this video to be very disturbing and troubling. Just the other day I saw a video of black youths beating up another kid because he made the honor roll. I felt so sad and disgusted about what is going on in this country and how can people act so wrong to their own kind and others while being treated wrong by larger forces of society.

Brooklyn BY FAR has the most obnoxious inner-city youths in the region.

Whenever there's some massive beat-down or brawl (like the MULTIPLE Mcdonalds incidents) then chances are is that it took place in Brooklyn.

All I have to say is that when you guys gentrify Brooklyn, please don't push them hoodrats out to Long Island or we WILL build a giant electric fence along the Cross Island Parkway!

Brooklyn is still more ghetto than gentrified. Take a walk down Gates ave in the summer. You'll see one hipster for every 500 ghetto trash beings. Brooklyn is gentrifying at much to slow of a pace.

Was just at at convention of hiring mangers. During a break out session we sampled a selection of videos from an ethnic centric Internet site world star. The videos were sad and emblematic of backwater uncivilized rural American whites. These collectives are very rural, very Protestant and collectively spread culture pestilence. There was a collective violence an a collective hatred with these people and they seemed to genuinely be proud of their propensity for violence and hatred.

Needless to say all of the hiring mangers will not be hiring members of this collective based on their collective behavior. All of us had a memory of interacting with this collective group and facing their violence and hatred. It is a collective of cultural sewage. Our lives matter and we do not want to be subject to this collective violence and uncivilized behavior.

What odd training for hiring managers. Were they teaching you to avoid white rural candidates, collectively? Or were they trying to equalize the story by showing terrible white hateful groups with worst possible collective behaviors. Anyway, it does sound like the training impressed you.

I hope, in addition to showing you vids designed to teach you suspicion for groups of "these people"(white rural, prizing violent culture..), they also trained on how to scan resumes or ask interview questions to let you notice the exceptional or outlier candidates.

White or black, in every community there are the ones trying to break out and upward, despite their skin color and the zipcode on their resume. Some will make the best employees you ever saw. Others will disappoint. How to find the difference is the skill of being a hiring manager, I guess. Ruling out whole categories of people -- that seems like odd training.
