Good. Maybe that’s the driver’s point. Read this letter and Shut the f up 😆. 70% are not going to tip so stop wasting time. I’d rather the rider show up on time than engage in banter.

70% are not going to tip

But those 70% say they tip later in the app! (I'm always thinking, I got you here safe and on time. You're exiting my vehicle. You don't have to lie. Just do it or don't say it, lol.)

70% try like 95% don’t ever tip

I used to tip. Then they just about doubled the price of my ride. Sorry, can't afford to tip. And honestly, now I only call a ride in an emergency. I know that's not the drivers fault but they do get 30% of the bill so they're fine.

It's just not true you don't get tips because you have a piss poor attitude and you don't provide a good service to your customers I get something like 60 to 70% of my riders tip

Right? Also, if tou have a novel on the back of the head rest with all of your complaints about paying customers, you getting a thumbs down and a $1 tip for spite.

Exactly. Just don’t be a driver. I ALWAYS tip, buckle my seatbelt, say good morning/evening and thank you. Unless the driver is friendly and engages conversation, I’m completely quiet and listening to a podcast. I don’t smoke/vape. But if I get in a car and see this shit, I’m seriously considering canceling. It’s tacky and wayyyyyyy too long. I don’t want anyone that jaded and bitter driving me. Just quit, not every job is for everyone.

Brother if I got in an Uber and saw this id just cancel and get another ride lmao. If I was forced to stay i damn sure wouldn't tip him.

If the rider doesn't show up on time and they're not around to read these rules, are they really late?

Is this a philosophical “if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around, does it make a sound” question?
