Hi. I just started driving for Uber last week.
My first night: 9 hours, 0 requests.
The uber rep didn't configure my account correctly. The next day, I went back to the Greenlight location, which is an hour away and got it fixed. An hour later, I had my first user (that is the term, right?) She was a super cool hipster, stoned out of her gourd. We talked about pop culture, fun cities we've lived in, etc.
What I've learned so far: 1) if the user isn't the chatty type, put the radio on. 2) Google Maps is garbage 3) it's OK to cancel a ride if the user is not at the meet-up. Don't kill yourself trying to find them.
Just wanted to say hello!
