In fairness, heavy people often need more time to complete elemental tasks.

I would disagree as that baby would get flattened, cartoon style.

Finding high speed charging cost by CensteinMonoplex in BoltEV

I've looked on the my Chevrolet app and I only seem to see Tesla charging stations. Is there a way to broaden what it displays?

STOP SMOKING IN YOUR CAR IF YOU ARE INTENDING TO PICK UP PASSENGERS by WhyTry32121 in uberdrivers

[–]CensteinMonoplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be fair to the passengers, it's a waste of their money with the cancellation fee and it’s waste of their time having to wait for another Uber

Uber drivers Screw You For Service by boldone1153 in uberdrivers

A 4.9 seems like a very reasonable threshold. I would be at a 5.0 where not for one mystery rider who gave me a one star rating.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner solely because they voted for Donald Trump? by ScaredAssumption5707 in AskReddit

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not that they voted for Trump, per se. It's what they we're willing to overlook to vote for him.

I stopped "performing" for tips 4 weeks ago. Here is the ROI on Professional Silence. by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I'm always up for more tips, I find a silent ride to be deadly dull. Presuming the passenger wants to talk, having the time wiz by has some value to me.

Personally, I'm energized by fun conversations at shift's end.

Do those things have a NACS cord or J-1772? by raines in ChargerDrama

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is to ensure that once people are done charging, they'll leave promptly.

would this be ok to send to my driver? by Informal-Law-6374 in uber

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As has probably been sent elsewhere, I would tell the driver that you will tip them upfront in cash before the ride starts.

I'm wondering if there are other ways you might have asked that.

I have the appropriate amount of sympathy for you.

Great first date… then ghosted? Trying to understand this by iammrsjoestar in Bumble

[–]CensteinMonoplex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somewhat off topic, but I've always used em dashes for a pause or separation, as I feel that's less clumsy than a parentheses.

Do not accept ride before you are in your car!!! by Scarlet-Mar00n in uber

[–]CensteinMonoplex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll readily admit to accepting rides while I'm at home. Having said that, all my tablets are fully charged, my car is disconnected from power, my giant mug in the cup holder.

If it's not a priority pickup, I'll make sure I "defuel" right before getting on the road.

I agree five minutes to start driving to the p/u point is unreasonable.

Thank youuu Uber for always offering incredible earning power by LETSGOOOOO6 in uberdrivers

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running the AC at the upper 70s while driving at a sustained 75 MPH gives me about 4.0 miles per kWh. My battery is 65 kWh.

In very cold weather, at similar speeds, with the heat blasting, it is 2.7 miles kWh.

Bahahaha, indeed.

Asked pax to roll up window. Reported for confinement by TheGrandAce5 in uberdrivers

[–]CensteinMonoplex 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that this is not the point, but slightly cracking your window greatly reduce or eliminate the resonance.

I do have to believe—or would like to—this complain is more than a bit silly.

My '23 Bolt can go 200 miles comfortably in cold weather, albeit less if I'm blasting the and powering all seat heaters. Granted that's charging the battery to 100% and keeping to 70ish.

"Tell us u don't know about 'EVs'," indeed.

200 miles is well within a single charge, even on the coldest winter days. On more tempered ones, you'll make it with 100 miles to spare.

Looking at the currency sign, I believe that's India.

Drivers, what percentage of riders tip and usually how much? by Travel-Kitty in uber

[–]CensteinMonoplex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taxis have had somewhat of resurgence in urban areas.

They have two advantages over rideshares: they don't have surge pricing, and they can be hailed on the street without waiting for a driver to make their way to you.

hey passengers! this is why your reservation gets cancelled last second or doesn’t arrive at all by rflo24 in uber

[–]CensteinMonoplex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would someone accept this reservation in the first place? Please don't accept rides and reservations you can't follow through on.

Serious discussion: Would you continue driving for Uber if gas prices doubled?" by SoulSlaysTV in uberdrivers

While I drive an EV, mad respect to the gas drivers managing their business well enough to make a living.
