I was nervous it would take a while to get there and would have got me to work late so I ended up just calling a cab which came right away, but would have rather used an Uber.
Historically there has been news coverage about the cars being fake, but I could only find one article dating from 2015 about that. Uber's ongoing lack of profitability is one of those big open questions. I kind of view it as a huge subsidy from Uber venture capital investors to the public.
