Just found a tampon on my Uber seat
at least it is not used. Just open and sitting there. Weird.
Would you rather:
1. This situation, guy in front grabs your wheel causing you to swerve.
2. Or that situation from last week, Guy in backseat starts punching you from behind.
That they are a "bad" company. Look at any tech company, or male dominated company for that matter and you will see some "bro culture", the media just loves to pick on Uber.
I do tip on the app but I always feel askward leaving the car and not tipping in cash like the driver is just judging me.
"and this is why you do not threaten your Uber driver"
Once I ran a curb an popped my tire, put my spare on and drove to a mechanic to get a new tire. Mechanic told me that my whole axis was shifted and it would be a few thousand dollars. He made this big show of wiggling my tire back and forth to show me how unsafe my car was. I took my car to another shop (one that was highly recommended) and they found that the first mechanic had loosened one of the bolts on my tire to make it appear wiggly!! Other than that my car was completely fine. Unreal that this guy let me drive on a loose tire in hopes that he would make some money. This was 8 years ago and I still get heated about it.
To be fair, the minor was 17 so he could have thought it was an adult. I am sure we have all driver around minors before without realizing it.
The heroin on the other hand, ya, thats not good lol
forget the makeup, how in the world do you shave while in the car?!
Wow, I never thought about that side effect before.
If Uber just screwed over Google, they better watch out...
Exactly! The ad isn't just annoying, it is hindering the usability of application.
Uber XL is quit a bit cheaper, honestly, for the price I would just recommend taking the XL. Cars for XL still have to be in decent shape!
I can tell you one thing, I don't envy this fella.
Yep! Don't want to lose that 5 star rating - gives me such anxiety!
wow - please provide me with more of these! such mindless reading.
Since you have to pay the base fare and Uber safe rides fee twice, doesn't this really defeat hte purpose of using another $5 coupon?
They are going to make a fortune!!
wow, this is a fascinating stat.
lol, wouldn't be the first time.
I bet it will go smoothly, Lyft is always better at Uber with this stuff.
Wow, 10 hours really isn't a lot. Most people these days in jobs across all industries put 10 hours in a day. This seems a little too strict.
