I'm a perfect 5. But I've taken less than 20 journeys, so I'm like that goalie that has played the minimum number of games to register amongst the statistical leaders.

I'm the Devin Cooley of Uber customers.

If I'm gonna be belligerent I make sure my wife orders the Uber, so I'm still a 5 star.

It’s probably when I’m paying for a crew and my buddy lights a dart. They don’t tend to like that.

Oh, I've got to ask my wife what her rating is. Things might be different.

I have 69 five star rider ratings, despite talking each driver’s ear off about Electric Vehicles, Tesla, and the impact autonomous ride share is going to have on their future.

During my last trip to Vegas in February I was in an Uber, a Tesla Model S, and the driver had never considered how robotaxis could transform his job. He went from initially denying that they would impact him at all to contemplating owning/leasing a fleet of five or ten self driving cabs and instead of spending his day in the hot drivers seat he could be in his basement collecting multiples of what he currently makes from those sweet sweet fares from his stable of cash flow generating cars. I literally changed his life in one 20 minute ride.

Whenever I'm dealing with someone currently performing their employment I gab their ear off about how they're moments from their job being replaced by AI and robotics. It really brightens their day and they are so appreciative. I'm such a good guy.

Hah! We have a family contact that lives in the US and leaned in hard to being an early adopter of the robo-taxi plan. I’m not sure how many cyber trucks he has on hand vs on order, but he has had to downsize both his house and his mother’s and now he lives with her. They are all on the brink of bankruptcy.

So, yes, it has been a life changing event for him for sure…

My favorite uber drivers and barbers don’t talk to me lol. I’m not a small talk guy. I talk enough at work.

I’m not sure what sort of fever dream you are spouting on about, since currently no robotaxis are owned by the public and Cybertrucks are not part of the ride share fleet, but sure - your acquaintance is on the brink of bankruptcy because of both of those things.

My comment was simply one possible reality that could evolve involving Uber. Try not to get your panties in a bunch.

Don’t sell your comment short. It was also incredibly lame and embarrassing to share!
