PAX - you don’t get wait time for a non-reservation order demand orders. Stop dreaming. Especially if your in front of a reservation. Expect to get cancelled on if your not present on arrival.

Had this demand order prior to my reservation. As I’m driving there, the reservation order dispatches which tells me any delays and I lose reservation order. Advise nicely via text, I have a airport reservation behind you. Arrive and guy says, wife is not ready, and days I have 5 minutes wait time. Immediately cancelled and moved into my reservation. Barely made the reservation with about 2 minutes to spare.

Where do these idiots get the idea they have 5 minutes of wait time on a demand orders. Glad I cancelled on that $7 ride. Would have lost a $37, $3 a mile reservation order if I waited for the idiot. Cancel on these jokers all day long ahead of reservation pickups.

PAX with 6 Passenger, 6 Extra Large Luggage, 2 Carry-on and everyone has a backpack.

Got a XXL ride where passenger has 6 people and 8 luggage, 6 which are the extra large think ones and 2 overstuff carry on. Said no way it’s gonna fit. Ask if I could rope tie on the roof.

what the f is wrong with some of these PAX.

Told them it ain’t gonna happen.

PAX got crabby and said I was being uncooperative. I said there is NO UBER/LYFT that handed 8 luggages let alone 6 backpacks. No way you got here on 1 Uber.

They took a shuttle to the hotel, but shuttles were booked.

So you too what is a mini-bus and because your cheap, you think a driver gonna just tie luggage on top the roof.

I obviously cancelled “items don’t fit”. Guy talks to Taxi parked to side of me. Can hear Taxi driver say, NO, you need 2 Van Taxi’s.

Some passengers are just idiots.

2am Surge, watch out, a lotta trashy PAX at this time.

Usually don’t work these hours but had too much coffee and couldn’t sleep. Why not make money on a $10 surge. Boy was I soooo wrong

1st offer, PAX drunk girl walks up and says we have 9 people and some still in bar, I gotta get them. Obviously immediately cancel. I ain’t taking more than legal limit of passengers for seat belts. If they that cheap to cheat the system, they’re not worth the ride.

2nd PAX, at bar. 5 guys. Says, gonna add 3 stops, McDonald’s, Taco Bell, and Jack In the Box. Told him I cancelled because that’s not the offer I accepted and I don’t do drive thru’s.

3rd PAX - guy is literally barfing on the road. Another cancel.

I never cancelled this much, ever. That late hours is just not for me. Ended up going home to bed. Yawl can have that surge. I’ll pass.

Lyft is so crappy. Should be illegal with this kinda crap. $6 for an XL reservation. Glad fellow drivers letting this crap sit for a few days.

Their offers are so bad. Glad I have a normal job, but the side gig ain’t even worth it. Imagine logging on 30 minutes in advance to a measley $6 when minimum wage is $16.90.

Quickly approaching 0% Acceptance on Lyft. Their offers after since May announcement of 30% cap have been completely trash.

Thousands of rides and their offers have literally collapsed.

Never doing Lyft Airport Express again. Just a sham

3rd time I got a Lyft AirPort Express (XL). First 2 times, no ride and had to head back to waiting lot. Today got an Airport Express and offer was $9.28, when normal fair is $27. Oh hell, no. Never ever again I’ll take these crappy Express, which is a low freak’n offer. Cancelled and left. Lyft has really gotten sh*tty.

Lyft Airport offers not even worth it with a 30% Turbo. Literally was -60% lower than normal fare. Acceptance rate now below 10%

Haven’t been driving Lyft much since their announcement and offers have literally collapsed. Today, flip it on because saw a 30% Turbo Boost. First Offer was $16.74 to Airport with Turbo. They crazy. The normal Airport fare from those area is $27-$32. Literally haven’t driven much due to their trash offers. 2nd Offer was $17.74. Pure trash.

Not sure who’s taking these trash XL offers. They just destroying their own market.

30% Turbo still active, but decided to log off if they’re dishing this junk.

Only drive part time after my other job, but it’s not even worth it anymore.

SF riders gotta be one of the lowest tipping group ever.

Work LA market so we get a lotta travelers. Anybody notice SF travelers seem to be the highest ratio of NON-TIPPERS. I’d rather pick middle class small town as not only a pleasant ride, your ratio of tips is like 1000% higher.

Anybody paying attention to where they from and if the tip. Middle Class small town travelers the BEST.

2 hours, no ride attached to turbo yet. Economy may be failing or extreme anomaly. Busy market where orders attached usually within 1-2 minutes.

Been holding a Turbo for 2 hours. Everyday from 2-3 is a ln extremely busy time. Since march, it has taken longer and longer for a ride to attach when normally it would take 1-3 minutes, not 1-2 hours.

Hope this is temporary. I only drive Turbo’s and/or great offer given the gas situation.
