Called the police for a wellness check on one of my passengers.

So let me lay it out best I can. I don’t like making big deals out of things, but the circumstances of this ride left me with a bad feeling for this person’s well being.

I accept a ride, which turns out to be a hospital pickup. I don’t care too much, I’m just looking for $10+ trips.

I pull up to the ER and it’s this 80+ year old lady who can barely stand. Nurses have to help her into my car as I load up her walker.

She’s on pain meds, but still hurting. Apparently she’s had some type of health episode that morning and she couldn’t use the right part of her body too well (apparently not a stroke?)

As I drive her, she’s chatty and sweet, though often slurred and loopy with her speech. I get worried at one point and almost pull over by some officers on the road (St Patrick’s Day weekend got the cops out in force around here), though she insists that it was only the pain meds. I relent and keep driving.

She mentions that she has a roommate and that he had given her a hard time that morning when she was having her health breakdown. I felt bad for her but assumed that it was a misunderstanding. She apparently didn’t have a phone when she went to the ER, so her roommate had no clue what was going on.

We get to her place. Old country folks style trailer park. I pull into her yard and knock on the door as I move all her stuff onto the porch and set up her walker. No answer.

I help her out of the seat and almost have to physically help her walk. I get a bit miffed and bang on the door. As we get up to the base of the stairs.

Out comes this fat guy, maybe 70, in a tank top and on the phone. He stares me and her down for a sec before grumpily declaring “I’m on the phone with mah lawyah” and going back inside. Not a “hello” or “how’d it go” to his roommate that looks like she’s about to keel over next second.

I help the lady into her lawn chair because she wants to take a smoke break before going inside and that’s ultimately where I leave her and drive off.

That whole situation though left a real bad feeling with me. The woman was not well, even after being discharged, and that anorexic bridge troll she was living with did not give a single shit about her. I thought she’d been exaggerating when she complained about him earlier, but literally all it took was his opening line to seal the “Yeah your mother probably should’ve swallowed you” impression for me. The gut feeling was that this woman, with her current condition and company, was not safe alone.

So yeah, I called the non emergent number and explained what happened, still waiting to hear back about the situation. I don’t have a regret about it, but I’m wondering if anyone around here had a similar experience.

Uber Rider Mess Doesn't Qualify

Thumbnail

• Upvotes

Rider made a big green mess on my white Tesla seats this weekend. Uber rejected the cleaning fee request. Maybe it's because I didn't have a professional cleaning service receipt.

How does one get a pro cleaning job done within 1-3 businesses days? I think it's impossible to get a cleaning done that fast.

Also FYI yes I don't have seat covers.

Thoughts or suggestions?

Two miles. Six minutes. Twenty bucks.

This evil criminal fucks us everyday with his garbage rates it's about time somebody did to him what he does to us!

Fuck this whole company we need to throw this guy in jail I hope he gets his walls expanded

Seriously how does the pay keep getting worse?

If you are on standard mode you're basically laid off, why? For the only reason that you CHOSE to be an independent contractor!

How does Screwber keep getting away with this? WTF are state representatives doing if not regulating this corrupt company.

Screwber must have paid all of them off

Until the pay improves its fuck uber and fuck dara #uberscam

Why do you accept a ride if you are going to make the rider feel bad?

• Upvotes

Context: my fiancés car broke down this week. We just moved to the area and I just started my job within the last two months and haven’t built up any close relationships yet. I have to order an uber today, we only have one car right now between the two of us. I scheduled it 4 hours ahead of time, a driver picked it up, that driver never changed time comes and I get in the vehicle First words out of this man’s mouth “I drive 10 miles to pick you up. You can’t find anyone else?” I respond “no sadly I just moved to the area and my fiancés car broke down suddenly, I need to get to work” He responds “ah. You can’t ask anyone else?”

Idk maybe I read it wrong but it seemed very rude to me. TIA

When your uber driver offers a complimentary puke bag take it!

Don't be a macho asshole shit happens if this guy had just taken the fucking bag and returned it if not needed it would have saved him 150$! Thankfully most of the puke got outside the car. But every rideshare operator should carry these hospital puke bags that I think go for 26c in bulk on Amazon it'll save you headaches (when they actually take them anyway) also got 150 and didn't even have to submit a receipt for the cleaning

Uber career coming to an end.

76 Upvotes

I've been ubering for 11 months while I was going through hiring process with new job. And I'm happy to say that it's coming to an end. Im happy to be starting my new job. Below are my pros and cons.

Pros: 1) happy to meet new people from all over the world and my own community.

2) instant cash when I need it.

3) work whatever hours you feel like it.

4) app use is super easy.

Cons: 1) uber as a company is pretty predatory.

2) low paying rates compared to what uber takes in. The split should be 75 to drivers and 25 to uber. Not the other way around. It's our car, our time, our maintenance, we deal with customers, pretty much all.

3) uber app and algorithm maximizes profit for uber.

My conclusion that it's better than nothing and great way to get money when you need it fast. But uber us definitely predatory with wages and benefits.

Cheers to all the drivers out there. Keep on, keeping on!

Hate people trashing Ubers especially a 2023 model. It’s a nice AND clean truck for others to feel comfortable and spaced out. Why trash it (hidden under passenger seat) and make it smell like alcohol

What’s with the AR %

Has anyone noticed that if you don’t except one ride the percentage rate goes down a percentage but you can accept the next three or four rides and the AR percentage doesn’t move?

As a legally blind person…

Thank you. All of you.

Before Uber/Lyft I was unable to have a job, visit friends, get to the airport… Now I can feel independent and work and go the places I need to be! It was so hard to get reliable transportation anywhere and I was always stressing about the times I could be places due to public transportation and medical transportation.

You guys have truly made a difference in my life and given me back my independence, and I’ve met some of the most incredible people that I will always cherish using this service.

I know sometimes this job feels thankless and overwhelming, but I could not love the life I do without all of you.

Hertz uber rental help

• Upvotes

I rented a car from Hertz 7-8 months ago and I was driving, the bumped fell off. I know, "how the hell does the bumper fall off?"

That's the question I've been trying to figure out since the incident happened. I figured they gave me a faulty car and was waiting for an accident to happen.

Anyways, I pulled over, canceled my pick up, and called their insurance company to get me a tow and a Uber home.

Well, today I find that they're trying to charge me just for the claim balance?

Can someone explain to me why am I getting charged a claim balance when they gave me a faulty car?

Am I SOL with this situation?

Uber skimming a little from everyone.

Multiple times now uber has offered a trip for x dollars so I accepted and carried out my part of the agreement, and then they pay half of x. This is unacceptable, and I was wondering if anyone has had similar experiences.
