Two minute grace period. Fuck you. You should two minutes MAX. Not two free minutes before the real timer starts.

Anyway, then it goes on to give five extra minutes. There's literally no reason it should take a total of SEVEN FUCKING MINUTES to get your lazy ass to the fucking car. Get the fuck in, we got places to be. You asked me to be here for you, you paid for the ride, fucking get in.

Oh, ans apparently when it's busy, they get eight minutes. In addition to the freebie two minutes. TEN FUCKING MINUTES?! WTF?! First off, when its busy, you should get in faster, not fucking take longer. Nobody wants me holding up traffic in busy downtown for ten fucking minutes.

And lastly, the fucking reservation. If you make a reservation downtown and I get it just in the feed, idgaf, I'm taking the hit. Uber says you get 10-15 minutes. Well guess what, the dice said you get me, and I say you get one. Maybe two. It's a reservation. You knew about this ahead of time. Get yo lazy ass out here. If not out in one minute, adios. I hope you're late to whatever you reserved this for. There's other riders out there that actually want the rides they pay for. Bitch. It honestly brings me joy to know they wasted their reservation and will now be late. Fuck em. Now you get to wait ten minutes while the system finds someone.

She told me she wouldn’t get in a Tesla, I told her that is the silliest thing I’ve ever heard. She says “it has to be done”…

So I got paid $4 to drive 3 minutes to her instead of the $8 I was going to make for driving her 12 minutes more!! Genius!!

$2100 in one week.

I consistently make $1500-2000 a week. People won’t accept trips that are long and only do $4-5 short trips and wonder why they don’t make money.

Stop treating your passengers like dogshit, take ur car to the car wash, get a car wash membership, make ur car smell good.

Stop hitting on every pretty woman and making them feel uncomfortable. Have good conversations with people. and you’ll make good tips.

Stop bitching and moaning about uber, and put some effort. SICK AND TIRED of Uber Rideshare getting a bad rep.

Is it perfect ? NO. but I have passengers tell me all the time how other drivers treat them and it’s no surprise to me that you guys aren’t making money.

I let my passengers VAPE in my car, occasionally I’ve let a couple of ppl smoke a cigarette out the window while I blast their favorite songs.

… my car is spotless smells like lavender and feels like a safe place for all races, gender, age.

if ur not making money it’s your own fault.

First-15 minutes of Each Hour Everyday For 7-Days

These are the money hours — if we log off, the system feels it.

Where are my professional organizers or contributors at?

I dont know who informed these pax that Im gonna pull up to Wal-mart or Frys and load my car with a full cart of groceries but someone is gravely mistaken.

2 cancelations tonight. One on Uber, one on Lyft. This is one of the major reasons I dont have any Uber/Lyft markings on my car. When I drive by I take my phone off of its dock... look over.... if I see a shopping cart and someone looking at their phone, thats a big fat cancel every time.

Got me effed up if you think Im doing actual physical work for a $7 ride.

It will be ironic if Uber eventually carries out layoffs to boost its stock performance while allowing situations like this to happen. When employees are seen treating work hours as a time to play around for publicity photos, it can easily create the wrong impression about the company’s priorities and professionalism. Even if this type of activity was approved internally as part of a public relations stunt, images like this can still follow the individuals involved long after the moment passes.

If layoffs do occur in the future, those same employees may find themselves searching for new opportunities while having content like this associated with their professional profiles on platforms such as LinkedIn. In a competitive job market, that kind of perception can be difficult to overcome. While the intention may have been to create a lighthearted or promotional moment, it ultimately risks reflecting poorly on both the company and the employees if circumstances change.

I rent an EV from Avis. Im in CT. I rent because due to the pay cuts, i no longer feel that the wear n tear on my car is worth the pay. Only options to rent were EV's. I have to wait this long to charge the car in this weather to get 150 miles minimum because i keep the heat on. Its too cold not to have it on. 150 miles is about 3/4 hours of driving max. To have to come and charge it again for this amount of time. All the money im losing because I have an EV. Yes, i know i choose to get the EV so im not complaining for the most part. Im posting here so ya can see what ya would be walking into if you do choose to rent an EV during the coldest time of the year. Im making the terrible decision so u can see what not to do. Have a great day and good luck making as much as u can.

Long story short I pick up these Thot and some random dude dropped her off to his house she left her phone the boyfriends number was on the find my iPhone he called me after three messages and legit started crying ngl felt bad but these hoes ain’t loyal!!!

Two are at the top of my list. The grocery store pickups. I roll up and see them, standing there staring at their phone with a cartfull of groceries. I want to cancel immediately but I feel sorry for them. Then go to their home and its usually an apartment where they take their dear time unloading all that. Time waster.

Then its the medical pickups. You see them standing there with their walker looking frail. I think "oh crap" and pick them up anyway. Again, I feel sorry for them. So you get them in the car, fold that f*cker and lift it into your trunk and have to do it all over again in reverse when you arrive at their destination. Again, another time waster

These rides should cost more and every one of these people should be compelled to tip at least 5 bucks.

Rant over

I can’t believe this is official signage with a promotional hashtag and everything like a real PSA campaign. Who approved this? lol

I was cancelling rides due to safety reason to avoid my cancellation rate from being hit. How can I cancel once the timer start without affecting my rate?

So I just gave a billionaire a ride and got a $15 tip.

Edit: Fare was $85 for a 1 hour trip. Traffic made it last 2 and a half hours longer and uber didn’t adjust the fair. I only took it because $85 for 2 hours is great. But ended up being 5 hours including the 2 hours to get back to my state.

this is what passenger pays, app offers to the driver as $20, and I am asking $60 cash. and telling them your number doesn’t include tolls. if they won’t accept I do cancel.

if I am not making money with my own car, no one else gonna be.

also: uber trolls shut the fuck up

I usually wait 2 min, and if after the 2 minute notification they message me saying "be right there," if they aren't moving towards me immediately I wait until they get close and then cancel after driving off.

Depending on how annoyed I am, sometimes I'll send a message like "hopefully you'll be ready for your next driver" wait for them to "read" then cancel.

So satisfying.

Ok so i know this is bad but look. So im waiting outside for a pax to come out. Then a door dasher pulls up to my car with a bag of food and says “he wanted me to give this to you. Said hes on his way.” I asked who? He says “i dont remember his name but its on my tablet. I can go get it if you want me to.” I said nah thats koo and took the food. Then i get a message from the pax saying im on my way out. I wait the 7 minutes and leave with the food. Thanks for the tip ig. Yeeeeeeeeessiiiiiiiiir

I (f) had a 30 min drive across town. My driver was a nice man, about my age, who held pretty good conversation. About 15 min into the ride he asks if he can ask me a question. Then he asks if he can take me on a date. I politely declined and said I'm not looking to date right now. We sat the last 15 min in complete silence. No radio. Just the humming of his tires. I'm so glad he didn't take me to my house. Is there a way I can request female driver's or should I report this?? I mean, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, but this also made me really uncomfortable.

I have been doing Uber for the past several months until yesterday I got a deactivation notice I tried to appeal it and my account is gone people were giving my low ratings for no reason I made sure everybody got to thier destination safe no speeding no traffic tickets or anything. So I am so glad I am a part of this lawsuit with door dash and uber I was told if I have any problems to send screenshots to the lawyer and that’s what I did. Here is the link to the claim https://zrclaims.com/case/gig-economy-driver-rights/ Fill this out i am going to go to my account and add up all the miles i drove because it’s a lot so no more uber or door dash for me.

2 years of Uber every day a struggle and finally ended it last night,Got a Morton's steak house Uber eats delivery by convention center by Disneyland,1300 hundred dollars order, Pickup and went home with order after ghosted the ride,My severance pay fuck you Uber,Nice meals for a week lol,Ate del taco for 2 years and nice steak for breakfast thnx uber

​"It just looks like a lot." No, it IS a lot. Order the XL next time and stop trying to bully drivers into cancelling for you.

You "might" get one of them to take you if you text ahead of time like a normal human. Rideshare is not a delivery service.​​​​
