How are people not seeing the bolded??

This is how https://theoatmeal.com/comics/believe

peeps4u:
It is ignorant my bro. I always try not to look down on anybody, okada, petroleum attendant, molue or anyone. Hustle is hustle and you don't have to do white collar jobs before you should be respected on your jobs. It is just so appailing that some people who aren't even doing as good as some people with blue collar jobs look down on them because they aren't doing office jobs.

I hope all the "you're employees of Uber/bolt because you work on their platform......" can read that "You're your own boss"

Let's cure our ignorance. Too much grammar or wrong use of technicalities to twist fact doesn't connote brilliance. Again, "Drivers are their own bosses and aren't employees of uber". Let's be properly guided next time.

AND TO BOSSES, ANY CONDESCENDING RIDER THAT TRIES BULLY YOU WITH "BUT YOU WORK WITH UBER AND AS SUCH YOU SHOULD TAKE ME TO ANYWHERE AND DO ANYTHING" EDUCATE THEM WITH THIS FACT THAT YOURE YOUR OWN BOSS AND DONT WORK WITH UBER BUT A PARTNER. THEY ARE JUST POMPOUS IGNORAMUSES, TEACH THEM. BUT ANY OF THEM THAT FAILS TO BE TAUGHT, REJECT THEIR TRIP AND GO PEACEFULLY.


PEACE!!!!

Is the radiator leaking?

Or maybe water pump wahala? I'm just guessing sir

peeps4u:


Employee and partner aren't synonymous.

You see why some of you don't know jack about what is there for drivers. This thread is for drivers and drivers know that the more you cancel, the more your activity score goes down till they temporarily suspend you. As a rider, you don't stand anything to loose. 99.9% of the time, it's the driver that uses his credit to call you and you still feel entitled. When you go to book yellow taxi that charges you double of Uber, do you vex for them even when you use your two legs to go find them.
The only time you stand to loose is when the driver has arrived and you may loose 400 for the aborted trip. And by the way, just as you have uber and bolt, the drivers have both too and can decide to leave your request till eternity.

daddytime:


Water pump, a clogged radiator or a leaking one.

pocohantas:


Yea, pretty obvious. The brotherhood is strong here. I really love how they maneuver past the subject- must be something that comes with steady driving. Amma just sit my CEO butt down and only comment when I am totally in agreement with the brotherhood...

Perkins1:


Nope. Radiator not leaking as I have checked several times when the refilling. The water pump that I can't tell. The thing just dey make me weak. Two riders cancelled on me yesterday because of overheating.

radautoworks:


Where did he say they were?

Frankdamaxx:


So you feel the riders just book Uber because they are bored and like moving aimlessly around Lagos? A riders time and money is valuable. So I take offense when you say we don't have anything to lose.

As for the yellow taxi, you cant vex for them because you don't have any expectations of them coming to pick you rather you flag down or go to their locations. Uber promised us to expect the driver.

izzou:


I was expecting him to ignore. After all, you Don cancel..... Wetin remain?

I once picked one silly girl that was very insultive. She put Yaba as destination and asked me to pass Ago palace way(from Festac). She then later said she's going to Aswani side.

I then made a comment like "That road is bad oh". Opari

She started talking and talking how drivers are proud and all rubbish.... That if I don't want to drive, I should go home and sleep

I was just saying "Yes ma"... She got more pissed because I wasn't responding to her talks.. She continued and I was just silent. At few intervals, I'll say "Yes ma".

As she pay me, I just look her with disgust and zoomed off.... The saliva wey I go use ask God to uplift me, na him I wan waste on top person wey I no sabi?

My point? Ignore...

Perkins1:
My car dey overheat even with the fans working well.

Please what could be the case?

Luxurydriverng:
What will you charge to onitsha return journey? One week stay with accommodation provided

peeps4u:


There was no need to write employee/partner.

Should have simply written 'partner"

peeps4u:


"......you're able to make yourself available or cancel allocated booking........"

And goes further to recommend drivers should go offline to avoid being banned.

Isn't same thing we are saying?

The first paragraph already gives the drivers power to take trip or cancel trips.

The second paragraph is an advice to curtail too much cancellation to avoid bans. And that's what UBER does, when a driver cancels too much, he gets blocked.

That's why we say it is not within the power of any rider to tell drivers to take his car off platform because he cancels trips, UBER will decide that when the driver exceeds the threshold. You may argue that UBER frowns at cancellation over bad roads or destination, but the partnership agreement already gives the drivers power to cancel trips over a certain range.

This is Nigeria, roads are bad, drivers can choose to avoid certain roads to protect his car/investment, he has a lifeline in the right to cancel trips over a certain range as permitted by the agreement. I will not put my car in danger because of UBER, which doesnt take any responsibility for damage on my car, when I can simply cancel as long as I'm still safe to do that.

I don't see a reason why riders should be angry when a driver cancels a trips as long as the driver is still safe to cancel, just book another trip.

That's why DRIVERS ARE THEIR OWN BOSSES.

A driver can reject/cancel trips if he doesnt want it, when he cancels to a level is when he gets banned and that is for UBER/bolt to decide, riders should know that.

BAZ001:


I want to assume most drivers don't look at the riders ratings again. Once I see u have a low rating and you are a lady, I will just prepare my mind, if your tune on d phone is somehow
I will either cancel without telling u or go their and ignore any insult.
I've dropped a unilag girl before with plenty loads in d booth and she said oga pls help me bring my bags to d house and she went inside.
I sat in d car for minutes not knowing what to do?
Las las I carry bag inside oh. Saw her gisting with her friends on bed.
Uber says I shouldn't do that, but did it for peace

Radiator seem fine sir. The car overheats when I use AC at the highest most times.

radautoworks:


Which kind of car, how often are you filling, is pouring water the only way you've checked for a leak? By "working well" you mean not bypassed?

Frankdamaxx:


The way you emphasize BOSS amazes me. All Bosses provide service.

I personally have no issues with a driver who cancels, but cancel on your driver's app. If you depend on the riders to cancel so you can continue your business, then .......

daddytime:


Uncap your radiator, turn on the engine and look out for the water bubbling. If it doesn't, water pump should be the culprit.

GAZZUZZ:


Replace radiator with brand new unit. Stop using water that is what damaged the present radiator.

Perkins1:


Its a 2003 Honda Civic

I refill only in the morning (except when it overheats along the way)

No. There's coolant though in the last week I only refill with water. And no leaks from anywhere under.

Yes by working well I mean bypassed straight to the battery.

I never expect Uber drivers to help me with bags because I know they are not chauffers. They are private individuals giving people rides for a fee. Overseas they don't help you with bags and we don't expect them to. Some nice ones do but it's not part of the job description. Rider's protect their ratings there because no one will come carry you. I suggest you guys start doing the same if you're not already doing so. Rating can be seen BEFORE accepting the trip
