That's why I like our app culture now, I work service repair with a partner, so the driver orders then 'also order R45'

Who tf goes through drive-thru while using a taxi service? It's a-b MFers
mikeeco68
Ryan's friend (Taco Bell drive thru worker) playing along. So cruel.
ironymus
It's not Tuesday. Taco Jokes are always told on Taco-Tuesday
kaijuuGold
lyft would just pull up further so we can order i always ask if its ok to eat in the car yes or no then ask if the driver wants anything
Fyrebaugh
Why use uber to go through a drive thru? The per minute price for sitting there is less than the people making the order, 11 cents a minute
tempforgetty
Taco Bell should bring tostadas back.
OneFellUnderTheCuckoosNest
Was this over the phone? Uber eats?

"I want a three-toed Yoda in a beanie please!"
Carchomatic
As a once Uber driver...fuck this entirely. You get paid based on mileage and time, but almost entirely by mileage.
WhatTheHellIsGoingOnBob
You don't even get that now, fixed fare has fucked it up so much. I don't do drive through anymore, just drop them off
Carchomatic
Sitting in a drive through takes a lot of time, and gets you no miles, so almost no money. It is a waste of the driver's time.

Honestly the drive-thru person should have understood if he said Tostyadas instead of Tostadas.
CarlottaVonSprockett
Yeah idk about this story. I worked various fast food jobs for almost 20 years. “Toast yoda” is pretty easy to translate compared to some /1
CarlottaVonSprockett
of the weird shit you hear in a drive thru! 2/2
wadatahmydamie
Jim Gaffigan can pronounce “tostada.” If he can do it, literally anybody can
ThisGuyPostingThings
What can I say? Gaffigan knows his foods. And whale sounds. And funny ways to say "hot pockets".
Copperbrat
Grew up in New Mexico. My shock and bewilderment when I first started dating my SO and heard him ask the waiter for "corn tor-till-ee-ohs".
wadatahmydamie
My Spanish pronunciation is savant-level when I have an edible, but I can’t imagine flubbing the basics. He’s lucky to have you to teach him

Yikes.

DoIactuallyneedaUserName
WHY would you ask your uber driver to order food for you? Is your speaking hole not working?
rile
Small dick energy?
NSFWfrontpage2
Some passengers will sit in the front passenger seat so it would be pretty awkward to yell over the driver.
schismatosis
You don't have to yell. I worked a drive thru and those microphones are sensitive. I could easily and clearly hear passenger's chatter
KittyApocalypse
I mean it's awkward to begin with cause they paying you $20 for that stop but not paying to order for them they can yell all they want lol
Sidewaysgts
Sorry- You think a driver is getting paid 20 bucks for this kind of stop?
Badprenup
Sitting in the front seat (when not necessary due to lack of space) is an even worse offense than having your driver order for you
Sidewaysgts
I prefer having customers up front with me, but always give them the option to sit where they want. More room, easier to keep an eye
Sidewaysgts
on whatever the hell theyre doing. Easier to talk, if the customer wishes to talk. Etc.
OrangeAvenger6
I default to sitting in the front unless the driver requests I sit in the back, makes it a more casual experience, easier to small talk, etc
frischcode
I was 16 and driving a girl home; asked her which way I needed to go at an intersection. She said "up". She's a Doctor now.
dposton70
Some of us just can't go "straight".

Looking at her phone on Gmap?
Gremlynn4023
Directions are hard man!
RespiratoryRandy
C's get degrees.

She was saying you needed to “turn up.” It was probably a joke.
T3sl4co1l
Had a GF who once pointed right, said "go yellow... er, LEFT!... THIS WAY!!"
Gaelwyn
Was she ok after you got her medical attention?
McJersey
If you were using a GPS it would point up... lol
frischcode
This was 30 years ago. No GPS. No cellphone. Just two teenagers, in a 1988 Toyota Camry.
brucebarnes50
I know someone who has such gems of navigation as “Ha you missed it, you needed to turn left just then.”
suckstoyourauntie
Sadly, this is part of why flying cars would be a nightmare. We have enough collisions on a single plane.
Yrmsteak
Was she Luisa Solano?
Smigions
In chicaho up is west. Down is east towards the lake.
ElbowDeepInAJedi
If I heard Up or Down I would assume they mean numerically like "This is the 1000 block and we need to be on the 6000 block so go that way."

KittyApocalypse
As an Uber driver I always follow directions unless it leads down an alley (for drop off) then I improvise! Here's ya stop, ya walkin!
Muunk
"go left right here" is verbally confusing
PballQhead
Even worse is using "right" instead of "yes": "Turn left here?" "Right."
USSBigBooty
I knew a guy like that... very dedicated and studious in his education, but otherwise dumb as a rock. Really great stand up guy though. DMD.
suckstoyourauntie
I was like that, so good in school, but so clueless otherwise. It was a humbling thing to realize, but it made me want to learn everything.
CairoLen
I'm still like that. I'm 50 in a couple months.
JustaSimplePlumber
The most educated brilliant people I know are fucking morons outside of their field.
ninjarabbit
Look, there are only so many stat points you can use to level up. For example, Stephen Hawking chose 100 intelligence and 0 strength
rhonox
While just saying up is kind of weird. "Up the street" is a normal thing to say meaning straight
chunkstyle
Down the street means the same thing.
TheobromineAddict
Or "North" .
VirtualNaut
North isn’t always “Up” depending on your direction. But “Up” could mean continue up the road with no turns.
SoulTakerWasSupposedToBeMyUsernameButSomebodyStoleIT
Well if I'm driving south then 'north' certainly doesn't mean 'continue to follow the direction you're driving'
DarkBusterBaron
Um no
MidoryMoon
people who have their uber drivers order for them in a drive thru are certainly a type of people
schismatosis
I didn't even know that uber or lyft drivers would or could do that
Baeloro
I mean, he's already taken responsibility for getting yo ass to the taco bell. Is he your dad now too?
spookyactionatadistance
People who go to driver thru in a Uber are inconsiderate. The ride is not billed by time. It was estimated between your dest.
McJersey
Probably expects them to pay for it too... ? lol
GravyEducation
Drunks or dicks, order your food from the back like a normal person
saxon2060
My first thought was "what the actual fuck kid of degen gets an Uber to take them through a drive through AND gets the driver to order."
Yrmsteak
The type of people that think Uber is a chauffeur butler, not just a driver.
elry09
He didn't pull up to let me order myself so I had no choice
DoIactuallyneedaUserName
invisibulman
Are they?
ForTheDumps
Ordering for others gives me anxiety. If I'm driving, it's very likely you are ordering your food. Or we went over your order 6 times.
GravyEducation
Service days, if I ask people if they want something I need to write it down. I'll remember but it's habit from multiple tables ordering
IceWeaselX
If you're driving, passenger is ordering. Username relevant?
VirtualNaut
There’s no way I would let Tim Pool be my Uber driver
PhailRaptor
I would think that has more to do with the Uber driver not pulling up and putting the window down
TK421isAFK
How big is there car? You can order from the front or back window without getting within intimate proximity to the speaker/microphone.
Sidewaysgts
Depends where theyre sitting. Passengers may be up front, or possibly in a van that doesnt have rear windows that roll down. etc
TK421isAFK
So break out the rear window and order like a decent, unchauffeured human being. /s
JPRiddles
I wouldn't even think to ask an uber driver to bring me through a drive thru. They bring you from A to B and you order your delivery to B
goste
You can add stops in to your journey, right?
Ultratoxic
I had one drive me through a mcds to get breakfast on the way to the airport. He was super cool and I bought him a hash brown
MithridateEupator
I've asked while drunk but always make sure to tip some extra cash to the driver. And ask politely (I hope, again though, drunk)
FloodingWaters
I've tipped cash to get them to stop at a convenience store.
eeps
My boss got to know her husband by talking him into taking her to the beach so she could eat her burrito while he was her Uber driver.
eeps
This was years ago and it was technically their first date. They have a condo & a kid now. I don't think it works that way for most drivers.
Echo18
Well that's BS. I know for a fact that I own a home and have at least one child with every rideshare driver I've ever rode with.
Enoan
In 2017 I walked up to McDonald's at 3 AM during a fire alarm in my building, and they refused to give me the food once they saw I wasn't in
Enoan
A car. However the drive through was the only place open in town. I called an Uber to drive through and order for me.
Sidewaysgts
As an uber driver: This happens way, WAY too often, and 9 times out of 10 its never worth it. We dont really get paid for time sitting.
Alavar
Also that gas must add up. Even if it's minimal for each time.
Aeonika
I've had a pickup order lined up but that was a stop I included on the route and he didn't have to do anything but wait a minute.
CliffWestern
If you offer cash that's fine but otherwise they don't get paid shit if they are sitting in a drive through. I did it for a hot minute.
GravyEducation
Its a hustle gig, as long as you ask politely, assure them they're getting 5 stars and a 5 dollar tip. I've never done food but gas stations
CaptainBergatron
So what you're saying is communication is positive for both parties
GravyEducation
As in all aspects of life my dude!
GravyEducation
And that's 5 bucks on TOP of their normal tip. Extra five for their time.
Theory89
"Normal tip" just call it substitute pay, dude. Only Americans think it's "normal" to have to tip people so they can survive.
viila
Why not just pull up a bit forward, so you can order from the rear window yourself?
Hypnoticcow
I imagine alcohol plays a big part in this
itsthesneak
Crippling performance anxiety?
manyslayer
Actually owns a car, just ubers so they don't have to make their own order?
kraquepype
Traffic?
TK421isAFK
Fucking what?
kraquepype
Note: I'm in no way advocating for the behavior. Just stating that there may be a reason that the driver could not pull forward immediately.
CaptainBergatron
You don't order at drive thru's much do ya bud
GravyEducation
There are very few things that need to happen immediately and your Crunchwrap is at the bottom of the list. People are downvoting b/c 1/
GravyEducation
Its a Karen attitude. I want it and I want it now. Okay Violet, they don't owe you. They're trying to work and you can wait! Simple, we good
Gherkincensed
No.
ninjarabbit
In a drive-thru?
kraquepype
Where cars drive-thru, there can be traffic.
ninjarabbit
By the time the Uber driver sound it out, it should be cleared
GravyEducation
In the drive thru? You know you can just wait for cars to pull forward right
ItsActuallyDavidNow
kraquepype
kraquepype
Possibly, yeah. Car lengths vary and sometimes just the front may be lined up. Dude may have been hungry and asked the driver to order /
kraquepype
instead of waiting 30 seconds. The car in front probably moved forward and the driver felt committed to getting the order right.
BigFatFailureTurtle
Wait, why aren't you in the passenger seat?
Fitall101
Are you European? In Germany I was expected to sit in front; USA we sit in back
BigFatFailureTurtle
Northern Ireland, so not mainland but yeah. You'd think with our history we'd be the overly cautious ones...
yaddiex3
I was under the impression that the rider sits in the back. Kinda like in a taxi.
fennecbutt
Sometimes people sit in the front in an uber, depends on your own preference/the driver.
BigFatFailureTurtle
Ooh, I always thought that was just a thing in TV. In Ireland, you sit in the front in a taxi too. Feels weird and antisocial not to.
Tengenstein
The taxi driver is working. They don't need my distracting ass self getting us both killed.
Cptbluebeard7
Uber requests that drivers have people sit in the back first for safety reasons. Plus, in the US most don't want to talk to their driver.
