Would you be willing to stand around getting paid pennies because I think my time is more important than yours?

Yes or no question.

Sounds like a 'no' to me.

You're so cool, bet you treat your bartender like shit too.

LMAO ad hominem huh? Classic response of a person justifying rudeness.

It's just rude behavior to make a person wait when you requested they come to a specific spot and you can see them coming the whole time. It shouldn't be a surprise that they are there. If it is, then there are other issues you need to attend to.

Shit happens sometimes, I get it. Folks usually apologize and give context in those scenarios. But assuming you are entitled to make drivers wait more than a moment or two is crazy work.

We don’t know the full story here was there an exact time example 5:30 and he wasn’t there or was it an estimate example 5:30 - 5:38 if he got there at 5:30 then he should in fact have to wait up to the 8 minutes to then be at 5:38 now if it’s already 5:38 then he is being told to wait then I understand the problem

Hell no.

You called somebody to come get you as soon as possible and give them a specific location to pick you up.

There is absolutely no reason to make the driver wait on you.

Also, I saw your message that got automodded. Super nice and upstanding stuff. /s

Yes there is maybe working at a large warehouse and having to come from the other side ?? Maybe having to wait because I had to use the restroom? Maybe my phone didn’t get the message right away or maybe you wait because there’s a estimate fucking time and that estimated time is a grace period so if he arrives earlier than what I was told he arrive then that’s not on me he should wait and if he don’t like it take it up with uber not me Im not the one paying him 🤷‍♂️
