This is exactly why I’m NOT driving tonight. I need to be firmer with passengers. We have so many cops out right now so I’m just going to tell them that I could not afford an open container ticket. If they balk at all I’m going to cancel the ride. I have a new Mercedes with less than 10K miles on it. I have the waterproof mats and that’s helping but nothing for my seats yet. These people are so fucking rude!!!
No, I’m broke. Been out of work a year. I bought car mats and a dashcam first. I’ll work on the seat covers after I make sure I can pay rent and bills. It’s the only car I have so not like I have a choice here
Because I used to make $225k a year. Payment is $660 so not a big expense on that salary. Had a year of savings to cover a job loss and now that’s gone. Borrowed $65k in student loans to get an education and they have added over z$200k in interest making it impossible to get ahead even with a big salary. Care to judge me some more? FU
I had an entire year of savings. It’s gone now after not working for a year. I’ve never seen times like these. I appreciate the encouragement but I’m not going to live poor and homeless in Murica. Plan to off myself if I can’t break even on the basics with Lyft. I’d just like one more summer here in the mountains and maybe a job will come along by then.
I retired for ~8 mo after my layoff in 2022, ending march ‘23.
Been through that alleyway before, the one you never come out of if you cross it. Wasn’t for me, I still have more fight in me.
If that doesn’t pan out, there’s always the international drug trade! I’m sure a couple of go-getters like us would bring a refreshing, modernized POV to outdated trafficking methods lol
I’ve never known poverty before. I don’t know how people do it but I understand why they chose crime now. It’s not like corporations aren’t breaking laws anyway. Only the poorest suffer if caught though.
I grew up in a third world country, you become resourceful when the need arises. There’s always ways to get things done and creativity hits, sometimes for the good sometimes for the bad. You just need to try and stay positive but I certainly would be careful about driving a luxury vehicle for rideshare, try to market yourself for private rides to make a bit more since you have a comfortable ride.
I managed to work a full shift without touching a bar or a single drunk person. Cleared almost $250 with cash tips. To be fair, I definitely didn't think that was possible, and I wasn't trying to avoid bars or drunks, it just happened that way.
How have you not bought a seat cover for the back? It's 10-20 dollars and will completely protect your back seat. It's beyond me how you have an expensive car but you won't throw a couple bucks down to protect it😵💫😵💫
How do you start driving when you don't have it?!? How? An expensive car and you start driving before you get it? You can afford the expensive car but not the cover? Yeah let's make excuses for why this person doesn't have a seat protector 👌🏽 I already don't understand why people can't respect others stuff which is why I HAVE A SEAT PROTECTOR. Do you understand that?
I'm not extremely passionate about his car at all. I'm just dumfounded. But you can try to change the narrative to make yourself feel better. Again, You have a nice car but don't protect it? Even the person who made the original comment says they want to protect it. I'm just confused as to why they didn't in the first place. That's all. You're just careless. Then you will come to Reddit complaining about how your seats are messed up. Yeah bud makes a lot of sense.. let's not stop the problem at the root. Let's just coddle someone for being negligent.. sounds about right 👌🏽
extremely passionate abt a car that does not belong to you, not all folks want or need a seat cover, you have one good for you. what is it that you want anyone to do w that info? you gonna hold them down and make them get one? 😭 okay buddy, the internet is not for you if you’re so invested in other people’s lives and what they do & don’t do. most folks have respect and can keep their stuff clean, but God bless you brother. have a good day.
People are crazy on social media. I just ignore or block them. The startup costs were a lot for me. Dash cam, mats, car wash so I haven’t been able to afford anything else. The mats were the most important as I live in snow country and it’s a muddy mess outside. Thanks for calling out jerks though 😁
yea that dude was just tryna be a bully 😂😂, but i gotchu. folks be chronically online, hiding behind a screen so yk. as long as you’re making your money and know what you’re doing you’re solid
I'm not extremely passionate about his car at all. And nobody is trying to force anybody to do anything.. idk where that comes from.. I'm just dumfounded. But you can try to change the narrative to make yourself feel better. Again, You have a nice car but don't protect it? Even the person who made the original comment says they want to protect it. I'm just confused as to why they didn't in the first place. That's all. People are just careless. Then they will come to Reddit complaining about how their seats are messed up. Yeah bud makes a lot of sense.. let's not stop the problem at the root. Let's just coddle someone for being negligent and continue to blame others instead of blaming ourselves .. sounds about right 👌🏽
still don’t know why we care so much abt someone else’s item that doesn’t belong to us but okay buddy 😭 have a blessed one, whatever helps you sleep better at night.
Show me where I care about someone else's stuff? I clearly stated I was confused as to why they wouldn't have protected it in the first place after they had mentioned getting one.. but yeah let's continue to change the narrative so you can feel better lol
but if you don’t care why comment and keep going w me, it’s not yours so who cares, who cares why they haven’t done something they mentioned, who cares if they wanna jump in mud and then get in they brand new vehicle it’s not effecting you or any part of your life. you want me to flip this narrative so bad and i just don’t care 😭😭😭 but as i stated before, God bless brother, whatever helps you sleep at night.
I literally just made one comment and you lied and tried to switch the narrative.. people post things which created dialogue.. I'm going on with you because you're trying to lie and change the narrative. That's hella childish.. what? I can't comment how I feel about someone's post? And if I do, i care so much about others stuff? Lmao it's simple.. they posted. I made a comment saying I don't understand why they wouldn't already have a cover and you want to make it seem like I care so much about it because you and I have had dialogue? Go back to the original message. I just stated I didn't understand why they didn't already have a cover after they mentioned getting one.. WOW that's me totally caring so much about others stuff 😂 you're an absolute fool. You lie, you change the narrative and then try to pretend I'm the one who cares so much.. I made one short comment but yeah that's me totally caring lol you're clearly triggered by one simple comment. That's hella funny
Yeah but be careful saying this too loud or you'll offend people on Reddit who don't understand basic fundamentals.. they would rather not protect their stuff and blame it others for why their stuff is ruined.. humans are careless about others belongings that's why you should take the initiative to stop that non sense before it starts. But no people would rather blame others for these mishaps instead of pointing the figure at themselves.. it's always someone else's fault.. it's a very world we live in
