ADHD, Cannabis, Spinning Heads, and Homelessness

It is SO fucking hard to focus right now. I have somehow triggered a headache and it’s 12:43pm. I’m up and ready to be prodctive and yet totally exhausted from dealing with Uber’s dickhead support teams.

I’m a rideshare driver and I will use Cannabis regularly but not while working when I go back to work again. Except the internal administrative/support staff at Uber are god awful for us too. Hence why so on and so forth the future cannabis use.

2 hours. I’ve lost at least 2 hours to traversing a sea of women named Jack and Joseph, who picked American sounding names but don’t know enough English to realize these are traditionally male names. In our PC world that’s fine, if they identify as male I’m cool with it. Gender is fluid, sexuality is fluid I get it. It’s not about that…

It’s about selling out very people that made Uber viable enough to have an IPO. As Dara K jetsets at out expense and sells lies to the investors we are dangling without much support. It starts with the first call, where we spend 1/2 hour minimum to get through to someone. They take down our issue but can’t communicate clearly or resolve our issue. We are then put on hold. If we’re lucky they come back. It’s currently a 50/50 chance we’ll be hung up on while on hold.

Mostly they will tell us they need to escalate it or send it somewhere else. If you demand to speak with a supervisor they’ll hand the phone to whomever trained them. So a rep with one more week than Jack. That rep will not provide any resolution…
