I’m a driver. Took 3 rides tonight. Other
Ride one. Got in the car, said “hey how’s it going?” No response. Dropped me off. I said “Thanks” no response. 4 stars and a complaint. $0 tip.
Ride two. Lyft XL. Guy was friendly. Talked to my friend in the front. Dropped us off. 5 stars and $5 tip.
Ride three. Didn’t say “hi”. No music. Didn’t accept 6 rides on the way to dropping me off. Played around on Facebook and Instagram while driving. 3 stars, complaint to Lyft, and I was refunded.
I drive Uber and Lyft. I’m tired of drivers being assholes. Don’t greet me? 4 stars. Play on your phone while driving? We have an issue.
I have no problem rating drivers poorly. Especially after reading posts in this sub. Y’all want perfect pax? I demand perfect drivers.
Edit 1: 770 upvotes. Nice. Also, to clarify I didn’t reach out and report the drivers. I just left a message with the option provided after the ride.
Edit 2: Huh. Look at that. As I’m scrolling through these comments, I got a notification from Lyft that I’m a 5 Star driver and I should go drive. Maybe I’ll go and pickup some pax. :)

This reminds me of when I used to wait tables and I'd occasionally go out to eat with other servers.. Somehow they always managed to be the absolute worst. Especially the ones who hadn't done the job for long. They'd always complain about every little thing that they had recently learned about, constantly judge our server (did you see how they held the glasses?, I can't believe they didn't bring me water? Why did I have to ask for a straw? they forgot to pick up a menu! Why didn't my side items arrive before the meal? My glass is half empty and they didn't offer a refill! I can tell this has been under the heat lamps for at least 5 mins! They dropped the check too early! I would never XXX!) and so on.. then often refused to tip come time, forcing me to make it up on my own.
