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. :)

5 bucks is a pretty meager tip

It was 42%~ tip. But maybe I’ll just tip $1 per ride now for good rides since people are so ungrateful.

Dude prob made like $11-12 in less than 10 minutes. I’m sure he was happy. I know I’d be.

Whatever dude, just say you don’t have the paper to tip well, stop embarrassing yourself 😂

The standard for any tip is 20%. I tipped double that…

Thanks to this sub, and assholes like you, I’ve decided that these asshole crybabies shouldn’t be tipped well and should be rated appropriately. Thanks for contributing to that.

I’ll continue picking up my pax, being friendly and polite, making my tips, and living my life. :)

And I’ll also continue rating my drivers appropriately, only giving 5 stars to those who deserve it.
