> Driving for Uber/Lyft/etc is not a full time job [...] They consistently report to me that they make between $40k and $55k/yr.

Is this 55k from part-time Ubering, or is this 55k in total, most of which comes from their "real" full-time job and a small fraction from Ubering, or is it 55k from full-time Ubering in direct contradiction of what you said, or what?

I was talking to a guy and he said he gets around 30usd/h from full item Ubering.
Assuming this is comparable to the above figures of 40k to 55k per year, and assuming 50 weeks worked per year, that comes out to 27 to 37 hours driving per week. Maybe not full time, but hard to argue that it's just a small side thing.
