  Have you ever ratted out a rider to Uber for smelling like weed?

  Apparently this is a thing and it can get riders deactivated. https://mashable.com/2018/07/09/uber-drug-use-narc-in-app/#IOIjvCEArmqa

  Thanks Wes. I wonder why certain areas have different numbers? Different supply/demand of drivers? I would guess the threshold is lower in rural areas where there are hardly any drivers to begin with.

   1 month ago in  Was my driver in the right?

  So many riders just hop on the phone and have these loud obnoxious conversations without ever asking me if it is ok. I would have been thrilled if you were my rider and actually asked me! Sounds like your driver was a jerk.

   3 months ago in  Drivers. What circumstances would you give a one-star rating to your passenger?

  1 star ratings are really really rare. You have to do something to completely piss me off. I think I have only ever given a 1 star 2-3 times and all times were because the passenger was being a complete jerk, drunk, yelling at me, treating my car poorly, etc.

   4 months ago in  Drivers, have you tried Cargo yet?

  Ya I think the idea is you take the box in and out with you, its not that big so pretty easy IMO. I guess you could leave it in your car but LG-PA makes some great points hence why I take my box with me into my house at the end of a shift.

   8 months ago in  Uber drivers. Have you noticed strange tip amounts?

  Yes, I have been seeing more tips later on than usual as well. I just noticed it the other night. Maybe Uber is sending a little tip reminder a few days later? Nah, they would never do that... IDK.

   8 months ago in  What is the saddest thing a passenger ever told you?

  Once I had a passenger who was going on about her mom being deported. Oddly, she wasn't all that sad, more matter of fact. While she wasn't that sad, I was, sad for humanity.

   9 months ago in  Drive or Sit?

  yes! dont drive around aimlessly. This just wastes gas, much smarter to stay in one location. Maybe find a flexible part time gig you can do from your phone like taking surveys in your down time.

  No, not report them to authorities, just to Uber. You know for smelling up your car.

   1 year ago in  I use Uber or Lyft almost daily. Is there a way to get some discounts? is there any monthly or daily pass available?

  I've done this before, a couple years ago, I got Ubers for $2.99 in SF! You just have to keep your eyes/ears open for these promotions.
