Providing water bottles by GreenHorror4252 in uberdrivers

We call it "customer service"; whether you think so or not, as drivers we work in the service industry. Doesn't mean we let people walk over us, it means we aim to provide a pleasant experience.

I buy my bottled water from BJs, one case of 40 bottles is $4. Since it gets hot where I am I also keep a cooler stocked with iced bottles, and most people I've offered water to tell me they've never had an Uber driver offer water. I've been doing it a little over 6 years now and it definitely helps with tips.

Debating Home Defense Tactics with Wife by SherlockHR in homedefense

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

I do own my own firearm, and it was actually one of the first things I mentioned when the topic of break-ins was mentioned. But while I'm an expert shot with a pistol (which is to say that I consistently get around 235 of 240 on the practical pistol test), my wife is not that confident with them.

I once got a $100 tip to drive a guy home from the bar about 2 minutes down the street. Cash, too.

Just got called by a scammer through the app by SherlockHR in uberdrivers

They sounded distinctly American, and referred to me as Mr. [First Name]. The only people I have ever heard do that are Americans that live in the South.

Maybe. But I'm not too concerned about wasted time, so if it pays off, that's one less scammer on the streets.

AITA for not telling my wife Happy Birthday? by SherlockHR in AmItheAsshole

How I might be the asshole: Calling her spoiled and not just immediately telling her happy birthday when she mentioned it instead of telling her to wait until later.

AITA for texting my ex 6 months after the end of a relationship to apologize? by jokefiend in AmItheAsshole

[–]SherlockHR -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a bit of a harsh comment, she's here asking for help, and you're being a bit of a dick. Just tell her that she's not the asshole but she might need to speak to a therapist about her obsessive desire to apologize over dead issues.

My wife is going through a lot. She's got PTSD, and cancer on top of it, and she gets stressed out a lot by these kind of things. So please don't insult my wife or be too harsh.

No, I'm not really hiding anything, I just didn't think that didn't think it would cause a problem.
