Here is the thing. Literally everything lilCindy complains about is a direct result of Uber's treatment of drivers.

She complains we don't provide water anymore. But Uber not only used to pay us enough to provide it, but it sounds like they use to provide at some Greenlight Hub (they didn't in Boston in the 3+ years I've been driving). Again they stopped. Is that the driver's fault that Uber cut rates so low that drivers can't really afford to by water that most people don't want? Or that Uber stopped providing it at Geenlight Hubs? No. Blame Uber.

And if Uber paid a decent per minute charge (like they used to), Uber drivers would be more willing to wait when pax runs into a store. The environment that Uber has created is that as long as there is a pax in the car, distance is a driver's friend, time is the enemy. Many drivers have to play both Uber and Lyft off each other to make ends meet. There is always a chance that if a driver gets a more profitable ping off Lyft while pax is in the store, they will take it in a second. That is the environment Uber created. Blame Uber

If lilCIndy really wanted to make some friends in here, she would recognize that most of the stuff that she complains about is a result of drivers adapting to the way Uber treats us. And she would take her beef to Uber themselves, not complain about drivers on a message board for drivers.
 
Well I donno if the stories lilCindy's posts are real, or if she/he just makes stuff up to get a rise out of drivers. But if there is even a chance she is legit, boy is she gonna be info for a rude awaking if/when the “Charlotte Surge” goes nationwide.

I mean she seems to think that a driver should wait or shouldn’t complain about a stop when it surging (and she THINKS the driver makes $0.30 a minute). Wait until drivers are making a flat $3.75 on surge and no multipliers during stops. Man is she gonna be pissed when stops become non-existent because driver’s priority becomes moving on to the next ride ASAP.

She will come in here a complain about drivers not making stops anymore. Everyone here will explain to her why, but she'll will ignore what everyone says and stubbornly stick to the idea that since she has to pay extra, drivers should be accommodating.
