None of what you just said has anything to do with it being your car and you providing service, but I know you only do point A to point B that's all you need to do and your passangers are just packages with the label on it blah blah blah.
it has everything to do with it. The rider is a customer whether they are in a car, a bus, an airplane etc. A driver is not responsible for a rider’s things. If they ask; that’s great, but don’t rely on other people to take care of you.

the main point of my post is: a driver’s time is worth an avg amount per hour in their city and in my opinion a driver should expect at least 2x that amount for going out of their way to return an item and Uber should make that change. Instead they depend on a driver being good hearted and giving their time away for free.
 
Y’all women are so damn chatty all the time yapping about useless shit, I just assume it’s already welded to their damn ear.
You’re so wrong! Let’s survey the audience and see what they decide:

“All the women who think Uber’s Guber is a sexist, please raise your boobs.”
more sixth grade humor. Is that the best you’ve got?

Your reply to me has nothing to do with what I'm talking about, I'm talking about simple customer service six simple words "make sure you have your cell phone"

My training as a driver does not allow me to screw over passengers I don't have that mindset, one of the cab companies I work for in Inland Empire would take your car if you had too many complaints screwing over passengers, I've also been a limo driver for a few years so I still have a customer service mentality.
 
Also I wish @MotorGal would hurry it up getting ready in the bathroom.
I mean let's go!!!!!
Women right?
Uggghhh.

Like is it so difficult to match my socks when doing the laundry and have a decent meal on the table when I come home after a 15 hour shift at the plant?

Tighten it up ladies! We aren't splitting atoms here.

How she only has one black eye is anyone's guess.

Ironically, it’s the passenger screwing you over. And with far less concern for our plight. They can’t fathom how much I need them not to do this. Take your items if you ever want to see them again. I like our math from the other thread. It could put drivers out $60 or more to play these games, that’s after collecting the silly little fee. And Dallas is quite a sprawling place. And the attitude of most people who do leave something is usually not pleasant. You get the accusatory tone and talk of theft lmao before you’ve even began to decide what to do.

Gee I wonder why you get that tone, could you think it's because it's general knowledge that many drivers don't return phones, could that be the reason why could you possibly be part of the problem, even though my comment wasn't about returning the phone the comment was about guess a few simple words to make sure passengers get their belongings not a hard thing to do, all this blah blah blah about low paying fares the passengers don't set the freaking fares.

Thank you for sharing. I came out one morning and saw this big SUV sitting in front of my house and I wondered why they were there and who they were. Then I hear them call my name. It was a pax from the day before who tracked down his wife's phone left in my car. I have no idea how long he had been there as I slept late that morning. Next time - hopefully there won't be a next time - I will use foil. Will put some in my "goody" bag.
Gee. That can be very scary actually when someone finds out where you live. You never know who that person really is.

yeah. I heard about the tin foil a couple months ago and meant to buy some then to have available in my car. This time I was lucky to be near a 7-11 and picked up the last one. Best $5 I’ve spent for something that was so helpful

Do “you” think that maybe it’s general knowledge by 50% of the riders that only a nitwit would drive for Uber, but oh well, let’s take advantage of them and request a ride while they destroy their car?

And that also means by golly, when I leave my phone or other items behind that driver that had the opportunity to drive the great magnificent “me” better get right back here because I’m important and they’re not so all they get is $15!!

And when a driver does that, they just proved even “they” believe they’re not worth it. That kind of driver doesn’t believe he/she and their “own” time and expenses are valuable - that 2 hrs worth of pay which should be standard.

Yes, at least 50% of riders do not think much of a person; simply for driving their own car and taking them to where they want to go. Sounds ridiculous but it’s true.

Require pay for your time and tools will begin to give you “more” respect, not less.

If you think so little a rideshare, if you think so little of yourself, if you think passengers thinks little of you why do you bother to drive, I do okay driving the Inland Empire I do $1,200 a week plus I only started about 7 hours ago tonight and I'm already past $200 will be at nearly 300 or 300 or more before I go home, I don't know what city you drive in and I don't care but I do well here and I like what I do and I like most of my passengers I know that makes me an idiot,

Blah blah blah I hate Uber blah blah I hate lyft blah blah I hate my passengers blah blah blah I hate myself, have a good night.

You need to take a reading comprehension course. Maybe one of your passengers can help you.

Time and time again on these threads you misunderstand what others are saying.

You did this time, as well.
 
A) Uber does not give a passenger your personal phone number. The call goes through a kind of switchboard.....they are dialing some 415 (which I know is a San Fran area code) number and it rings through to your phone.

B) Tin foil is very expensive these days. If you have no intention of returning the phone....which I think is a dick move....just leave it somewhere.

lots of dicks doing rideshare, sometimes i feel like glueing a label on my ass, as a package would get more respect.

near where I live corner of Sierra and Foothill northbound there is Major construction going on it becomes a parking lot, I tell a driver to make a right turn before where the app is showing them to turn I get told oh I have to follow the directions of the Uber app, I politely tell them I am a driver and you know that's not true, then I get silence or some lip service, I tell them to pull over I get out instant one star love it.

Just for clarity is that a male or a female ass?

#1 I keep my phone on “do not disturb”. I hate phone calls and I definitely don’t need someone calling while I’m driving especially with passengers

#2 if I have a phone conversation whether it be thru Uber app or me returning their call when convenient it’s already costing me $15 of my time cuz now I’m worrying further about poor them when in fact it’s poor me

#3 I’ve found it extremely a problem returning a phone or even other item’s because I put them before me. I’ll be driving until 4am to make that last couple of rides that get me the quest of say $200 only to miss it by that time. Why? Because I was stupidly thinking of them which got me only $15!

#4. Tin foil was $5 as I stated and very well spent! I’ve gone thru this crap before where they track you down at personal space and times OR you can’t turn off the frickin phone alarm

#5. Why do you automatically jump to conclusions just like ignorant passengers? What would I do with their phone? Why would I have bothered responding to all Ubers calls and messages of do you have their phone?

TIME + EXPENSES are as important to me as they are to the passengers; in this case it’s their fault and responsibility and they shouldn’t expect me to take care of their emergencies .
