I'd gotten up to 4.8.  After the seattlePAK, I'm back down to 4.68.  Will probably be banned from uber after tbtPAK.

it was probably the intervention that occurred during one of the rides home that did it.

I don't remember that.  I figured it was the one after chandler's when I was suggesting I drive.

Those are the only two trips that stand out to me. I think there were at least another two, but booze drugs.

The 3 on mine were all within a 5-hour period that friday night - 5 Points to Chandler's, Chandler's to home, and Cap Hill to home.  We train'd to Cap Hill I guess.

Cap Hill to home is when the intervention thing occurred.

I don't remember an in-car intervention or anything interesting happening on that trip.  Thought we were all dead.

It wasn't anything serious, just drunken PI'ing mostly. It's the only thing I remember from the ride home, for some reason.

Hmmm... sounds more like it must have been some kansas mentoring.  Guessing that didn't cause my precipitous uber rating drop.

if the cab back from the vegaspak basketball game was an uber pete would have gotten a zero star rating.

Is it like a badge of honor to be disrespectful to fellow human beings and their property?

Same thing. ;) I give them change or a dollar if I have it on me. I'm probably too generous, since I used to work there tho.

I probably wouldn't tip if I didn't work there, so yeah, it really is.

If you pay with a credit card at Sonic there isn't even an option to tip.

Just like uber.

I tipped the 2 dudes that brought the couch $20 each.  I really only wanted to give them $20 total, but only had twenties on me and didn't want to ask them to share it like they were 8-year-olds.

If I was a sonic carhop I would probably decline extra change.

Carhop: "Here's your $.17 back"
You: "No thanks you go ahead and keep that."

Imagine if that happened like 10 times a day, ugh

I mean, I go with the .50 or more rule, but I guess so. A lot of them are high schoolers already getting paid $8-10 an hour, so the extra change adds up over time. They can make good $. When I was a kid in middle school and was a walking hot dog vendor with the Sioux City Explorers, I definitely took the change.

Also, if they wear roller skates, that's an extra $1-2 an hour.  :love:

I mean I guess if they put it in a jar or something after they got it. Whenever I have change I put it in my car and it never goes anywhere else
