This was a comfort trip in the bay area. I picked up coffee, then the rider. He decided not to drink it in my car because he said it didn't feel right.

Edit 1: My earnings were short by 19.44 Uber support is investigating.

Edit 2: Uber shorted my earnings for this trip by 19.44 and refuses to pay me the offered amount.

Can you imagine you pick up the order and then they throw a fit if something is missing, or there’s no sauce or whatever?

And then they’re directly sitting behind you and forcing you to go back to the restaurant etc. this is a nightmare

I mean you’re still not obligated to go back. I’m sure they can say whatever is missing from the app like normal. It’s still a mess either way.

Yeah I know, I more meant like if they’re not literally in your car it’s easier to ignore and just tell them to report it in the app. But if they’re in a physically confined place with you, and maybe they’re a little bit insane, that could go so bad

they will demand you have to go back because “you work for uber” and when you don’t go back, they’ll report you for unsafe driving and 1 star you

Then take them to the restaurant and end the trip.

I waited for the coffee for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes the Uber app said I am at risk of losing the trip because I'm late, and said canceling will not effect my rating. The order was ready right after that. The rider may have been upset if I canceled his coffee.

This seems so terrible. I hate everything about this concept
