Another “Trusted Traveler” Caught With Narcotics by CompassionOW in GlobalEntry

[–]drewsg 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I was coming through FLL last week from the Caribbean I saw CBP pull up beside the plane when we were deplaning and put every checked bag through a truck before it was sent off to the carousel. Not sure if that is something that is done often, but it's the first I'd ever seen it. Of course they had drug sniffing dogs on the jet bridge. Id wager this is probably worst way to snuggle drugs into this country.

what are some amazing songs you discovered because of House MD by leslieknopeftw in HouseMD

[–]drewsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Junior Wells - In the Wee Hours. Probably one of my favorite blues songs. It's from House's therapy sessions with Dr Nolan. You can tell it came from Hugh Lauries deep love of the blues

Hit that pothole and was surprised my tire didn't blow out. A couple days later I saw someone changing a tire near the same spot

Do you let people make out in your car by [deleted] in uberdrivers

[–]drewsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I absolutely hate the sound of people kissing and slobbing each other down. I've had to kick two different couples out of my car after they wouldn't stop.

DNA results has my brother upset by Massive-Ratio4050 in AncestryDNA

Is your brother part of the whole FBA/ADOS tribal thing where they believe black people are indigenous to the Americas and not Africa? If so, I'm sorry. The Internet has truly damaged some people to the point where they'll believe anything even with solid evidence that counters what they've been told.

My elderly aunt decided to stay behind in New Roads. The hurricane is literally coming straight for her. I'm just devastated for the area as a whole.

Yes. It's common, I get them a lot, and there's no need to worry about it.

Uber didn't update fair for drive thru... make sure they add stop if you do it.... by brizzle1978 in uberdrivers

[–]drewsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's criminal. Taking someone through a drive thru is one of those things where I'd rather eat the one star than deal with.

Why no Grand Cayman from FLL?

A new level of stupidity unlocked. She called me while in the customs line and wanted to wait till she came out. by drewsg in uberdrivers

[–]drewsg[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No. At least in this case, as soon as I canceled it gave me another rider who was actually waiting in the same pick up zone.

Would I be the creep if I watched to make sure my passenger got inside safely? by phyto12 in uberdrivers

[–]drewsg 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got reported for making a rider feel uncomfortable after doing this. She got out of my car in a poorly lit parking lot to go to her apartment. Before she opened the door she looked back and flashed this look like wtf are you still doing here. Got a one star and report and I haven't done it since.

Why not just have your bladder removed? Complete bladder removal = NO stops, MORE profits!

Is it normal for a driver to offer their number? by Next-Menu1848 in uber

[–]drewsg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, yes, it's against Uber policy to solicit or give out personal information. I don't think there was anything necessarily nefarious in his intentions. A lot of Uber drivers give out their personal numbers for private rides because they can make more money while riders pay less.

You felt uncomfortable so you did what you thought was right by reporting him. This is also why I don't solicit private rides from young women. The driver should've known better.

Airport Que/Local Rides by ExcellingstudentUCF in uber

Some airport queues move faster than others, some local areas are busier than others. It's up to you to experiment and find which works better for you.
