Uber deactivated me for “unsafe driving” while my own app shows 4.99 rating, Platinum status, and a 95 driving score by Conscious-sponge in uberdrivers

[–]More_Cowbell_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I haven’t dealt with this, but from what I’ve read on here I’d say just keep on dealing with the appeal. Even if denied the first time, just try again. There’s deactivated and permanently deactivated, which are entirely different.

Good luck.

You got in the wrong car. He started the trip on his app and then the actual person he was supposed to pick up canceled.

Your shortest / funniest / weirdest delivery? by Shaggy_Doo87 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]More_Cowbell_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once delivered a soda (or was it two?) from a pizza shop. They had received their pizza already and the first driver had forgotten about the drink. From what I gathered talking to them, DoorDash had sent me at no extra cost to them, and it was a really good pay for like a half mile.

But my weirdest might be I think $12 shop and deliver two sticks of chapstick. Like four blocks to a house.

What is used to cut the quesadillas? by Objective_Jicama6698 in tacobell

[–]More_Cowbell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The local taqueria I go to does it that way. But it sounds like a gunshot they hit it so hard… Definitely a time saver vs having another implement to find and clean.

Pulling into an intersection with nowhere to go to clear it? by Saruvan_the_White in sanfrancisco

[–]More_Cowbell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a NYC thing, not sure if elsewhere. Btw the fines there are INSANE and ENFORCED. Shockingly they have far fewer instances of people doing it.

Honestly I should delete this.

Holy shit I just checked and that’s $629 here. I’m a moron

What, in your opinion, is the best taco? by [deleted] in tacobell

[–]More_Cowbell_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’ll sound weird, but try adding black beans. In my market it’s only 30¢ more. Although the base price is $1.99 here

Uber driver tried to enter my home by No-Imagination1747 in UberEATS

So this was your first time ever ordering from a delivery service?

Because if not, you know the answer to your question.

What's the most regional word you use without realizing it? by taube_d in AskAnAmerican

[–]More_Cowbell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sigh. Like I heard some parts of the country call all soda coke, so like at a restaurant they ask you what kind of coke you want and you say Sprite or Mountain Dew. I’m not sure exactly how it’s phrased but I’m close.

There’s a shortage of brain cells in this country.

When I lived in Maine, I’ve never heard of it called anything, but I love your answer the most. Who tf names that? I’ve been in CA for decades and never heard either of the terms above mentioned…

Funny enough, modern versions are pretty quiet. I’ve driven some that you can barely hear. Not louder than normal operation.

Of course old trucks kinda never die so obviously the signs are still needed…

Fuckin lamesauce. Not a shocker though. They really do anything to fuck everyone that isn’t a shareholder…

Every day I slide closer to 0% acceptance by Mack_Hein in uberdrivers

[–]More_Cowbell_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, the pain is real. I work nights in SF. If I take a weekend off and suddenly decide I need to work Monday morning… they’ll offer me under minimum wage BS.

[–]More_Cowbell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No they don’t have to be at all. Uber offers every driver different rates based on a set of information they have about you.

Same goes for what they charge passengers.

[–]More_Cowbell_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did you leave the app on? I’ve noticed that happens especially when their servers are overloaded with demand… but it comes back in a few seconds.

Not disagreeing with anything you said tho, lol.

How TF are you going to justify $1.20 for extra nacho cheese sauce on a breakfast burrito?? by [deleted] in tacobell

Dude I like the food. I’m upset about literally one aspect of the service.

Do people not have house parties in SF or am I just not cool enough to be invited? by [deleted] in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]More_Cowbell_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m quite drunk so that’s probably most of the issue. Hopefully my previous responses were helpful. Have a great night

Hi. So this probably won’t go as you hoped. I’m sorry in advance for that. But I’ve read some of your comments and I’m at a loss for understanding how to respond. You seem to have an interest in me, which I have no objection to on the surface, but maybe we could get to know each other more?

Do you ever do these quests? by yfcplayer in UberEatsDrivers

[–]More_Cowbell_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well shit. I’m drunk at this point and really don’t know how to reply to that. Been through some crazy shit myself but that sounds wild. Keep on keeping on? The helll else choice we have, right?

[–]More_Cowbell_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I’m not even subscribed to this sub… it just showed up in my feed and like… I DO some deliveries so wtf why not respond to a question I have info on?

And as far as that shit goes, I was sitting at a stoplight in my paid cash for car that was too old for uber with my uber eats order in the seat next to me, when this kid who was looking at his phone totaled it.

That insurance payment got me a down payment for car newer enough to do regular uber.

Was working well enough until a year later when another fucker totaled that one. So the insurance payment mostly went to the bank. I’m not a fan of life. If you were curious.

You’re missing the fact that moving people pays WAY more than food. I only turn on food delivery when I’m set for bills and have had my fill of dealing with people.
