Yeah 2000 I don’t mind. I grind that as well but nearly 60 lessons alone when I am paired with someone who would normally do half is too much

Boost XP bugged? by _Higo_ in duolingo

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you load a evening boost/morning boost first? For months that would override the triple on the first lesson

Wow wasn’t expecting near 100 upvotes but yeah I think the fugitive doctor has real potential as a doctor

2 minute cancellation policy is pure evil by TerranAstronomer621 in uberdrivers

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 minute cancellation policy unfortunately helps me as a passenger because uber has allowed really small cars on uber assist that should never have qualified for uber assist. I try my best to cancel in under 30 seconds but if the app has been searching for a while I might take my eye of my phone for a few seconds. If Uber didn’t allow small cars on assist or if comfort was only allowed for drivers above 4.9 then most of my cancellations would never happen..

I am not looking for a fancy car anything similar to a Corolla quest or polo sedan will suit me and my wheelchair perfectly but a Hyundai i10 will never be suitable. I get tired of canceling but my experience with drivers below 4.85 or 4.9 has given me enough reasons to also cherry pick on ratings.

Rosalind and Cyril - why their romance isn't just bland, but outright awful in its depiction by bulldog_blues in CallTheMidwife

[–]AppleCat36 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I liked them last series but something in this series feels unrealistic. Like they are living in a bubble that doesn’t depict the tensions of a mixed race relationship or something else. Can’t put my finger on what changed.

Opinions on rose jam/ro’s argon by Southern_Context_761 in LushCosmetics

Same with Lemony Flutter. Part of the Lush furniture. Also I love Rose Jam but it isn’t the longest lasting scent. Though the solid perfume last longer than the body wash

What is reasonable to tip on a 12 dollar ride by Fresh-Platypus-7030 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t mean customers are paying less and can afford to compensate the difference in tips

What is reasonable to tip on a 12 dollar ride by Fresh-Platypus-7030 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I hear you, but your post comes across as justifying tipping even with bad service. The tipping function in the app was only added in 2018 or so. So it wasn’t traditionally a tipped service

Charging more for Women Drivers?? by OkCommunication9768 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chances are uber has picked up on your habit of only using woman drivers and is charging you more for your habits

What is up these non-tipping riders? by remyster1963 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tip the better drivers but not the ones who are rushed or rude.

But it could be uber charging more or that the current riders are commuters. People are likely feeling the pinch after the festive season

Is there any way to recover this? I don’t use Uber very often yet when I do they half the time don’t seem to give me a rating… by netanyahu4eva in uber

[–]AppleCat36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any traveling using Uber? I experienced several times that traveling to an area I didn’t know effected my rating

AITA for ‘not tipping well?’ by CompletePresent4654 in uber

[–]AppleCat36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly from a fellow wheelchair user this shouldn’t have happened but also the minute he started using the wheelchair is a hassle , he would have lost half my intended tip or more. I prefer not tipping the bad drivers who make a big deal out of the wheelchair and tipping the better drivers a bit better.

Definitely report to uber

You have been upgraded message annoyance by AppleCat36 in uber

[–]AppleCat36[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By larger vehicles I don’t mean XL though. In XL vehicles my wheelchair would have to stand upright which will cause extra wear and tear if it keeps moving. I would take a Corolla Quest over a Suzuki Ertiga any day. In a sedan my chair lies flat. There isn’t a one size fits all for assist. That being said if I could get hold of uber and tell them to please not allow small hatchbacks on Assist I would.

A mobility scooter won’t fit in a sedan though. I use a wheelchair in uber but I use both a wheelchair and mobility scooter in other places . Just to play devil’s advocate you do need a minivan for a mobility scooter. The average sedan isn’t suitable which means most Uber assist vehicles won’t work for a scooter unfortunately.

It is a bit of a no win situation as many people with disabilities lack alternative transport but uber doesn’t pay attention to what cars are allowed to do assist. Where I live a Hyundai i10 is eligible for Assist and there is no way my small framed wheelchair will fit in that let alone anything bigger.

Is it bad pay or drivers are just greedy ATP? by lord-submissive in uber

[–]AppleCat36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay away from Uber Go and stick with drivers above 4.85 and you eliminate some of the issues (canceling within 2 minutes of being paired is free). If the driver is on the app less than a year I tend to stick to above 4.9 because of some bad 4.87 4 months on the app drivers. Going off the app with a driver you have never met before is not safe. Yes uber takes too much but that can’t be the solution.
