[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read this whole thread.  Fascinating.  Many thanks for answering all of the questions.  Here is mine:

I get what you say about not making the driver wait because he/she is not getting paid for it.  But, can I just text the driver from my house and tell him to "start the meter" even if I haven't left the house.  I'm happy to pay for the wait if there is way to do this.[/quote]

NP here:
Is it really that hard to be on-time? I don't call my Uber until I'm dressed and ready to go. Sometimes that means I need to wait inside 5 to 10 min if it's a busy night. I'm usually monitoring the driver's progress like a hawk and I'm on the curb when he's within a block. Why is this so difficult for some of you? It's not rocket science.[/quote]

Not rocket science at all.  I just want to pay someone to wait five minutes rather than wait 10 minutes myself.  When I am ready to go, I'm ready to go.  I don't want to then have to wait on the curb.  Especially because my littlest kid is probably standing on the porch having a melt down because I am going out for the evening.[/quote]
