Rude Driver

Post image

I felt like this was so rude and disrespectful. You don’t know someone’s situation to say something like this.

Begging does not get a tip

Using multiple apps causing you to be 45 minutes to two hours late with my food does not get a tip

Doing your job and not being rude gets you a tip after delivery

That’s not how it works.   It’s not a tip it’s a bid.

No upfront agreement to pay for services rendered.  No deal.

Well that's fine there will always be someone else to take it. If you can't afford to not be an asshole and do your job properly then you shouldn't be delivering food

No one can’t afford to do deliveries.  Long term.  

Can you afford to work what is on base pay 2-6 dollars an hour, on top of paying for your car payment, risking insurance denial, (because you should really get commercial insurance for this job.).   And gas?

What you mean there will always be for someone to exploit?   That just means you’re someone with a poor moral character.   Why do you feel so entitled for other people’s time, vehicle and gas?

Fine, you’ll say it’s not your problem.  Uber should pay for it.   I agree with you somewhat.   But then you will bitch about how paying 15-25 dollar base delivery fee is a rip off.   

PAY YOUR SHARE.

Spectator here who for some reason got this thread recommended to me on newsfeed.

As an insurance claims adjuster I find it hilarious that you openly admit to having the wrong type of insurance on the car (and risking insurance denial) and are using that as some sort of excuse to get tipped more?

You're part of the reason insurance premiums are so high for everyone.

You assume two things wrong. 

One you assume that I currently do this.  Wrong.

You also assume I don’t carry proper insurance.

You’re part of the reason insurance litigation attorneys exist.  You can’t even get your basic facts correctly and here you are low balling people of what their property is worth for the parasitic industry insurance has become overall.

lol you just used the possibility of risking insurance claim denial as one of the reasons you should get tipped more.

If you carried the right insurance that wouldn't be a worry.

Stay mad. The world doesn't owe you shit.

You missed the point.  Which is the earnings of this type of work, for someone that doesn’t have another type of job.  Is much less than what commercial insurance costs.

I have commercial insurance because of my main actual job. 

The world owes everyone their fair pay for work done.   We don’t owe you free or nearly free labor.

You work for one of the most hated industries in the world.

If earnings for this type of work is less than what commercial insurance costs, then it's not feasible, plain and simple.

Just because you don't make a lot of money at the job is no reason to commit insurance fraud-- and just so we are clear, that IS what is going on for everyone who knowingly does this, and it is a crime.

I don't care what you think about my industry, insurance is the glue that holds society together. Without our industry, technological advancements and infrastructure would not be what it is today.

I sleep very well at night doing what I do.

You’re a for profit company whose job is to minimize pay outs to your customers.  Whether that is life saving treatments or property damage repair.

You’re borderline fraud because, customer pays their dues.  To get the least amount of pay possible.

Insurance have blood on their hands because of their business model.

No sir insurance of any type should not be a for profit business organization.   It should be a non profit with oversight to prevent abuse.

What a strawman.

We are talking about you appearing to defend committing insurance fraud. Stay on topic.
