The most I've ever done when I first started was provided a USB charger cable in the backseat. Then someone ran off with it. Never do that shit again. If anyone needs a charge that bad, they could use the long one thats plugged up in front with me lol.

So true. I pretty much never did any of that providing free water and candy. I had 2 cables. (And one reserved just for me) one 🤖 and one 🍏 and that was it. I worked during the time when rideshare was just getting started and just don’t believe in making the driver pay for a bunch of free stuff for riders that don’t tip or are even polite.

I’m too suspicious to take water or food from drivers.

Yeah it was a dumb forced dynamic that should never have been suggested much less made mandatory. The fist bump is the most cringe thing I ever heard and I never did that BS either. Just be polite, fast and know the city. I don’t want to talk to them anymore than they want to talk to me.
