I'm zeroing into 1K Lyft rides and have heard/told a lot. This one he said his 8 years old daughter has brain cancer, with the family dealing for a year so far. Happens happens happens. He said, "It's O.K." - I said, "No, it's not" Fire away.

I said Oh really. Nothing else. I wasnt in the mood. She proceeded to lecture me all the way home. I didnt say much.
But I gave her no tip, a one star review, and said the review was due to the drivers actions. Theyre not worth arguing with.

(9,578 posts)Nope. Tips are a reward for a pleasant experience. This experience was as unpleasant as a short ride with a foaming at the mouth wingnut can get.
