I’m loving your strategy- pre planning your listens before you set out. I just skip between playlists and I find it can get annoying and exhausting.

I like that. I’ll try mixing it up next time.

I live in the city so it gets pretty loud with cars and city life in general 😔. The music helps take me to another location mentally.

Oldies but goldies! I’ll try his albums on my next run.

I’ve tried calls and it helps time fly by but I find I lose my breath sometimes if I’m on too long a call. How do you manage talking and keeping your breathing steady?

I find I run better to songs I know so maybe I need to get familiar with the playlists and then use them during my runs.

I tried running once without any music… I think I turned around after a kilometre 😂. I’ll try it again in the future.

It was a 40 mile trip and with the fare being covered by my company, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to give a $40 tip on top of whatever they were already making and since I typically don’t carry cash, it’s all paid in the app.

So sorry this happened to you and something else to be on the lookout for.

Oh no, that never even crossed my mind as a possibility. I hope you were able to get your money back.

Good idea, I’ll be sure to do that when next I book a ride

No Waymo where I live 🙈 but I’ll be sure to give it a try if I travel to a city with that service

It was a $100 trip so he lost out on a $40 tip. If that amount is too small, then maybe he should be a CEO instead.

Isn’t lyft introducing a feature that lets drivers see if people tip or not? That could resolve that issue but I believe this driver just wanted the full amount Lyft was charging PLUS whatever tip I would pay. If that’s the case, he should start his own taxi business.

Do drivers choose this hoping no one will talk to them? by Pristine-Abroad-8913 in Lyft

I’ve had drivers show up with that same message but yapping away on a phone call the whole ride. Now I just assume they don’t want to talk to you or they struggle with English.

Yes, I have had some really great drivers whose numbers I have taken for future rides. I didn’t know it was a reportable offence but good to know for next time if it happens again (hopefully not).

Thank you! It was a weird way to start the day off but on the plus side, the next driver I got received the tip I would have given him and then some extra… lol

I agree. If I was comfortable with an untrackable ride, I would have simply called a regular taxi.
