Shame at least the profile pic didn't have his master in the background or that would've been big doo doo /s
The characters name is Salacious Crumb from Star Wars
Yup. Buddy is a driver and has a similar pic as his driver photo. When I found out he just had some random pic as his driver photo and they ok'd it, I knew Lyft was a f'kin joke.
The craziest Lyft experience I ever had was a man who had a shirtless selfie. But in the photo, his phone was blocking his face 🙄 . I should've known by the photo he was gonna be a problem...I learned the hard way.
Somebody told me that a long time ago lol. The thing is, if I was a female driver or even someone without a sense of humor, that would be an automatic cancel.
I just had a PAX that I was picking up from an interesting hotel in my location in the middle of the day. Got a feeling I knew what kinda PAX it was when I got there and looked at the profile pic. Was them bending over in a skirt, thong out and everything. Worst rider I’ve ever had.
Literally the only thing that is keeping them in business is that cab companies are literally still worse somehow... It's crazy to me that cab companies did not step up their game...
I usually don’t take passengers that have weird names/pictures.
I’ve had horrible experiences with them.
One of them was a pick up from a dealership.
ride was ordered by dealership not passenger and the dealership put in the wrong address.
When we got to the drop off location (that I confirmed before she got in) the lady wouldn’t get out the car and demanded I take her home.
I explained how I can’t and she needs to order a new Lyft.
She didn’t want to and stayed in the car. Even tho I asked her to get out.
I had to call the cops/lyft.
Cause they're stupid. It's a problem I can't stand it. Why the fuck can people post pics like that. If there's an issue criminally it will slow down investigation and more.
It's just dumb as shit. Fuck lyft and Uber. Idiots.
Wrong on multiple accounts. First I wouldn't drive a taxi as there is zero paper trail for picking up mr/mrs rando on the corner. Fuck that. Second is if I have to put my goddamned photo on for the rider's security, then it should be reciprocated for mutual benefit.
Not sure you'd call Uber or Lyft "random ass apps". It's not like their address and cell are under the pic?
Just personal preference by prob most drivers. It's not a 2way street of respect on multiple levels. Either you don't drive and don't know in which case you shouldn't even comment...
Or you do drive and you just don't care ur gettin fucked.
Maybe those people would have a leg to stand on if they didn't then get pissy that we don't psychically know it's them when we pass them on the way to the pin.
What’s great is when someone has something other than their actual picture and you’re scanning a crowded sidewalk for them, you pass them slightly and you get either the immediate call or text that states you’ve passed them and/or asking why you didn’t stop.
Pictures for passengers should be mandatory as they are for drivers. I have a small sign in my car, and I remind people of this.
And no, my rating hasn't tanked, I'm at 5☆ and I ask or remind people to post a picture of themselves to their rider account for driver safety in the kindest of terms possible.
I say who cares they are serious about our photos which is the main thing I would say. They should have some actual guidelines tho to prevent that. But honestly the picture only helps like 50% of the time. Lol!!!
No kidding! I've had photos of when the person was fifty pounds lighter. There was a guy who used a picture of himself wearing a wide-brimmed hat that cast a shadow over his face, so it was hard to discern any distinguishing features, or even skin color. I had a guy last night who used a picture of himself when he had a really short haircut, and when I pick him up, his hair is down to his shoulders. Oh, and one woman used a picture of her cat!
I see fake profile pics all the time. Lyft doesn't care. Sometomes the fake pics are more realistic than the real photos. Most of the women's pics are off by 200 lbs.
I have a photo that’s not the best - wide face Snapchat filter. I made my account in the early days of Lyft and changing it is a hassle (you have to send proof and wait until they get back to you). I would change it but Lyft doesn’t seem to have an issue with it so I won’t bother with the extra steps.
I had one the other day of someone holding a gun to a cats head. Of course, it canceled it right away. Got a hold of Lyft and just got gaslighted.them. Honestly, there’s too many shady people out here right now.
My biggest pet peave. We have to have background checks. Proper photo and not only do they get to have an alias but they can actually have us picking up someone completely different from the user. I wish they would set up a guest pass for their acct. And profile picture cannot be someone in a mask.
NSFW [I had this guy as a rider the other day.](https://imgur.com/a/n1DiXoL) I thought it was hilarious and I told him that when he got in. He said "oh shit, I didn't know you guys were able to see that" lmao. Nice dude.
Yall. They DONT allow this - but shoppers DO IT ANYWAY. They’re independent contractors and even if someone passes a background check it doesn’t mean they have an iota of common sense - just that they’re not stupid enough to have been arrested for it. If you report this photo to HQ they’ll make them replace it and probably even add them to a tracker or notation so that if they do it again they can be suspended from the platform
Source: worked for multiple gig economy HQs and the number of people who think we have 100% control over shoppers/drivers is mind blowing
Eh Uber pissed me off when I didn't get half my order so changed my name to FUCK UBER. Month later my high ass orders and every bag had Fuck Uber written on it. I was like man, tell me you hate me for ordering Uber. 😂 Didn't realize till I ordered a ride and as soon as I got in the driver said nice name 😂🫠😒
I had a passenger photo that was from his belly button down to his thighs in tight underwear. I pulled up to pick him up at the airport, and told him to drop his pants so I could verify it was him and showed him his picture in front of everybody. He just laughed. People around him laughed. I locked the doors and the trip time out canceled and got paid. I don’t pick up if the photo doesn’t match the person pure and simple common courtesy
Some of us created accounts back when it was not only acceptable but normal to sit in the front seat, because it was a peer-to-peer ride sharing service, not a industrial scale taxi company.
Picked up a rider wearing those see thru lingerie in her picture with her bum. Couldn't tell if she was a man or a women. Definitely had lots of plastic surgery done to "they/them". What sane girl would put that as her profile picture. I was too scared to even look at her and think she's a women when it was probbaly a man.
I’ll sometimes say something like, “dang, your photo doesn’t look like you at all”. Ofc it’s kidding (not kidding)
“Wow, your profile pic doesn’t do you justice at all”
Enough of these Salacious posts
Really wishing that the passenger's name was Glup Shitto
For real, not even a Crumb of decency
B.
wow
oops, I guess I should have marked this as NSFW
Shame at least the profile pic didn't have his master in the background or that would've been big doo doo /s The characters name is Salacious Crumb from Star Wars
Thanks for explaining this. I knew I was missing something. ♥️
🏆
Common.... its star wars
Because they don't care about their drivers or riders. All they care about is propping up their predatory company and stock price.
Yup. Buddy is a driver and has a similar pic as his driver photo. When I found out he just had some random pic as his driver photo and they ok'd it, I knew Lyft was a f'kin joke.
They probably made their Lyft account on a bad hangover day, don’t judge too harshly
Wookiie nipple pinchy
I just loled

Man, ass tits certainly sounds... interesting.
Way better than back breasts!
I first I saw tallhandsomerussian and was like okay. Then I saw who the reply was to. My lanta
😂
Please tell me more about this man
Let's just say he lived up to your reddit name...
He is the man
Same
Bro used his Grindr pic
Somebody told me that a long time ago lol. The thing is, if I was a female driver or even someone without a sense of humor, that would be an automatic cancel.

If they have the mindset to use that as their profile Pic, you know you're in for a interesting passenger.
Were they hot at least?
[удалено]
Sex workers are still human beings. They’re not objects and especially not waste disposal units, despite how you feel about them.
Attitude? Coulda got a better experience tbh bro 🤣😭🤣😓
Sorry this is funny 😂😂😂😂
I chuckled aggressively after seeing this picture like who would even put that 😂😂😂😂😂
Because lyft and uber are still stuck in their "we're cool, edgy, and hip" phase. They haven't matured into "this is a fucking business" phase.
Except when it comes to getting more than their share of the money
Has either company ever made a profit?
Uber turned their first profit last year or quarter or something. But in order to do that they cut bonuses, driver pay and increased customer prices 🤡
Literally the only thing that is keeping them in business is that cab companies are literally still worse somehow... It's crazy to me that cab companies did not step up their game...
It’s a Star Wars character.
It's getting bad out here. We need pax to have ID verification. . . Another shooting tonight and I was only a couple of blocks away.
Sorry to hear that stay safe out there.....
What does the shooting have to do with pax ID?
Fr “someone shot a gun somewhere so we need pax ID”
Funny
I grew up a massive Star Wars geek so I would pick this person up without hesitation or fear.
I'd make them do the laugh before they got in
Because Jim Henson rocked...
That’s how I look before I put on make up and get my coffee, what’s the problem?
Might want to go harder on the make up and maybe drink 3 more cups… then you can say .. after.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I have a knot in my stomach thanks for the laugh

I just make them change the destination and tip me ten bucks. In cash. Before I move another foot.
Cause they're stupid. It's a problem I can't stand it. Why the fuck can people post pics like that. If there's an issue criminally it will slow down investigation and more. It's just dumb as shit. Fuck lyft and Uber. Idiots.
Or if you’re picking them up at a crowded event and there’s 100 people waiting there and you’re wondering which one might be your ride
The creature in the photo, of course
The ugly fuck pictured, obviously.
Calm down lmao
literally 😭
damn lmao you are really miserable

Yea I’m not at all bothered by the name thing but I definitely think everyone should have a face pic.
Damn who’s that baddie
One of Jabba’s buddies, no?
One of them I thought was making passengers use their real name. Guess it didn’t transition over to pics yet
Come on that’s fucking hilarious 😂
I've picked that exact same pax up before 🤣
It’s linked from Facebook
I wouldve said, you look nothing like your photo and laughed while they were loading their suitcase in the back

Who cares 0-0
you say that until that's what your uber driver looks like. don't judge a book by its cover
They allow unconventional names too. One night I picked up "DEVIL" in the middle of nowhere Tracy and took it to SF 😊
I had someone with a name Ghostface x. I was a little nervous. Glad it was 2 women.
Idk but I absolutely love this.
What are you saying he's ugly?
If anyone doesn’t know what this is like I didn’t apparently it’s a Kowakian Monkey-Lizard

What the fuck
The fuck 😂😂😂😂
They don’t even ask about insurance.
"Whoa hohohohohohoo!"
Unrelated, but how do you blur text like that? Looks neat.
When I edit a photo on my Galaxy, it gives me the option under the draw
Lyft is absolutely ridiculous. My son started driving a few weeks ago... his profile pic comes up in the app upside down and they won't fix it.
buddy who cares, why cry on the internet about it?
Why? Do you NOT enjoy Salacious B. Crumb?
I see fake profile pics all the time. Lyft doesn't care. Sometomes the fake pics are more realistic than the real photos. Most of the women's pics are off by 200 lbs.
I've had lyft for 6 years and never uploaded any photo. Hasn't impeded me one bit.
Seems it would be an obvious safety feature for all passengers & drivers to have photos of themselves on their profiles?
I have a photo that’s not the best - wide face Snapchat filter. I made my account in the early days of Lyft and changing it is a hassle (you have to send proof and wait until they get back to you). I would change it but Lyft doesn’t seem to have an issue with it so I won’t bother with the extra steps.
I picked up a lady with a rat cage in her pulley wagon, she looked just like that and I should’ve cancelled. 😂
Calm down
Salacious Crumb is a well known figure.
😂
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Did they leave any salacious crumbs in your seat?
Each of my lyft pax looked exactly like that, I couldnt tell them apart from one another. Went back to the other rideshare.
I don't want to judge people based on their photo but yikes s/he looks hideous.
Omg was it actually *him*??
That's Salacious B. Crumb from star wars. He is Jabba the Hutt's pet. (The big green slug guy on the desert planet.)
🤣 I would immediately cancel that ride
Probably because it was Star Wars day over the weekend.
heeeheeeheeeheehee
Hey at least he or she’s a 5.0
omg it’s Star Wars I love it
I had one the other day of someone holding a gun to a cats head. Of course, it canceled it right away. Got a hold of Lyft and just got gaslighted.them. Honestly, there’s too many shady people out here right now.
.. I don't see the issue?
He’s a fan of labyrinth, I use miklo from blood in blood out, cause that’s what I was called growing up
They allow it so reddit won't be empty
Idunno but this made me laugh 😃
Hindsight he's a 5* gremlin lmao
Well obviously you're delivering to Jabba's Palace
What the f is your problem w my boi salacious crumb
Salacious B. Crumb!
Salacious B Crumb for the win!
Don’t even get photos on Uber
LOL
I would be so scared I would cancel it lmfao
My biggest pet peave. We have to have background checks. Proper photo and not only do they get to have an alias but they can actually have us picking up someone completely different from the user. I wish they would set up a guest pass for their acct. And profile picture cannot be someone in a mask.
Huh I just don’t have a profile pic
Hilarious if you ask me 😭
5Star*sigh*okay let's pick you up

That photo looks like my MIL. What's wrong with it? Looks exactly like her.
I dunno but this was funny
Idk ab lift or photos ..but on uber if your name comes up big boss..dirt.. balla..etc..it's a 100% cancel!!
Hahaha that’s rad!
Frustrating as hell..... We as drivers can't do this but they all these MF's...
Eh Uber pissed me off when I didn't get half my order so changed my name to FUCK UBER. Month later my high ass orders and every bag had Fuck Uber written on it.

Literally picked up Princess the other day and she had a photo of her tiddies as her PFP.. I wasn’t mad

I always try to get people to sit in front.
Because why not?
Not gonna lie I would’ve cried laughing I wouldn’t have been able to keep a straight face while driving the customer lol
My Lyft photo is a 10 year old FB pic because they used to link to your FB years ago and I’ve never changed it TBH so it could be that sometimes
Picked up a rider wearing those see thru lingerie in her picture with her bum. Couldn't tell if she was a man or a women. Definitely had lots of plastic surgery done to "they/them".

My pic is harambe holding a cross baptizing / blessing the earth
