Uber. Lyft. The ride-hailing services that have changed the way society gets from place to place. Enjoy this list of 19 tweets about them that are way too real!
1. When your friends start sabotaging your good rating.
Sitting in an Uber listening to your friends actively ruin your rating is uniquely painful
2. When free water and a charger allow you to look past nearly everything.
My lyft driver almost hit some one but I'm still giving him four stars because he had a charger and water.
3. When your driver doesn't try to ask you a million questions and just lets you ride in peaceful silence.
When your Uber driver doesn’t speak to you or acknowledge your presence in any way
4. When you see your driver pass the destination you're waiting at.
My Uber driving right past me to wait 6 blocks away
5. When you think you found the right car and driver, only to realize it is not your ride.
Me looking for my Uber because I don’t know what a Toyota Corolla looks like
6. When you're drunk in an Uber and become an extroverted version of yourself that you didn't even know existed.
me sober in an uber: me drunk in an uber: ya but you see, their parents never catch them. the sister is always trying to tell on them. but they never get caught. it’s insane. and theres a fucking platypus. yeah its called phineas and ferb dude you seriously have to check it out
7. When you take the UberPool or Lyft Line to save money, but get anxiety because you literally have no clue who is going to be in the car with you.
🙏🏼 please don't let this random girl in the backseat with me in an uberpool throw up on me #uberproblems
8. When the surge-charge pricing forces you to walk to your destination (or just wait it out).
Saw our first complaint about #ubersurge pricing tonight. https://t.co/hlYqixEIkY #Uber
9. When you get in the car and it smells like they're trying to cover up years of stale fast food.
Does anyone actually like the smell of Black Ice air fresheners outside of the 25% of Uber drivers who love to have at least 3 of them going at once? #BlackIce #uberproblems #Imgoingtobesick
10. When the driver makes one wrong turn and you think the worst is about to happen...
uber driver makes one wrong turn me:
11. ...or just straight up lose your shit.
gps: keep straight uber driver: *makes left* me in the backseat:
12. When you really, really want to sing along to a song in the car, but also don't want to get a bad rating.
So, what is the proper etiquette for when a fave song comes on in the Lyft? Is it appropriate to just bust out and sing along? Cuz, we’re at three in a row now, and it’s getting hard to hold back. 😂🤔🤐 #lyftproblems #etiquette #favoritesong
13. When you get charged a cancellation fee...
how come when i cancel a uber ride i gotta pay a fee but when a uber driver cancel on me i don’t get a free ride 🤔
14. ...even though it's not fair because you've had drivers no-show you without a penalty.
My driver has been driving around for 1hr without picking me up, and it doesn't let me cancel without getting charged a fee. If you think I'm paying for that you're crazy @Uber_Support get your shit together. Second time this week.
15. When your driver has all the amenities you could ever wish for and you feel like the luckiest person alive.
My Lyft driver really out here! Free water, phone charger within arms reach, and he said, "I got WiFi too if you need it." 10 STARS FOR HIM.
16. When you know that trying to get in contact with anyone from the customer service team is a nightmare.
Help? How do you get an actual human being to help you at Uber? #Uberproblems
17. When your driver keeps trying to chat about topics you're not really interested in.
Me in the back of Uber listening to my driver talk about sports because I’m wearing a football shirt
18. When you've ridden in them so much, you forget that you have to pay before getting out of an actual taxi.
I have to remind myself so much when I’m in a normal taxi to not just say thanks and get out #uberproblems
19. And when your driver has free snacks, so you know they're getting a five-star rating from you.
Uber driver: I have starbursts in the back seats Me: *turns on light* omg they’re all pink!!! Driver: I am the best uber driver ever he ain’t wrong
