   Oh, that's fascinating. And using the app, of course,   
   gives more opportunity for the employer to skim.   
      
   I have no idea whether Lyft skims tips. I'm just pointing   
   out that they could, and cash can't be skimmed. On the   
   other hand, it's reasonable for drivers to want to know   
   which customers give better tips.
