Here we go for the "7 types of Uber Driver". Have you experienced it?
1) The NEW driver
Well, there is always new phase for every single Uber Driver. Getting not familiar with the operation of the Uber app, not familiar on how to set the location, how to navigate the map apps like Google Maps or Waze Maps. Sometime, it is not only the matter of the Uber app, but some of the New drivers are not familiar with the usage of smart phone apps as well. So, be patient, soon they will turn from New Driver to Experienced Driver.
2) The FIVE STAR driver
They are being rated for Five Star driver for a reason. The sweet and gentleman Driver which everyone likes;
"Are you getting cold or hot?" - Indicate he/she can adjust the air-conditional temperature for you.
"Are you comfortable with the seat?" - Indicate he/she can adjust the seat position for you.
"Hi, welcome" - A very warm welcome greeting.
"I hope you enjoy the ride" - A very warm thankful word.''
"Do you want today's newspaper?" - This could be very useful for those businessman!
Some Uber Drivers also offer automatic open doors for you and close doors for you.
Remember, there must be a reason why they are rated Five Star.
3) The SILENT driver
Some Uber Drivers don't really talk and don't have much interaction with Uber Rider.
This is their own personality and characteristics. On another hand, there are Uber Riders who hope the Uber Drivers not to talk to them right? That's perfect match.
4) The LOST driver
One of the major problem for a complete Uber trip is the PICK-UP process.
"Hi, I am your Uber Driver, May I know where is the actual location for the Pick Up?"
"I am not familiar with that area"
The process became even more challenging when the Uber Driver could not understand the Uber Rider's language or when Uber Rider could not understand the Uber Driver's language.
This is common especially when tourists are in another country to use Uber service.
A well communication is required for this problem as you don't expect the Uber Drivers know the entire City and you don't expect the Uber Riders know the area they went.
5) The OVER-FRIENDLY driver
"Let me introduce this place for you"
"The foods here is nice, for example .... "
"You should try out the foods at .... "
Having passionate on the job is correct right? A balanced interaction is required.
Like mentioned in point 3 above, some Uber Riders do not prefer to talk during their trip with Uber Drivers. However, there are some Uber Riders who love to have interaction with Uber Drivers especially if you are Tourists, right? Some Uber Riders would prefer to get some local interesting foods and places recommendation from Uber Drivers.
6) The MUSICIAN driver
Some drivers, not only Uber Drivers, prefer to have MUSIC on during driving.
Some Uber Drivers are potential Singers as well. Singing softly or using finger to cope with the beats. Sometime, a suitable and comfortable Musics make the Uber Riders feel comfortable on their trip especially if they love the songs, the artists and they might sing together with you!
There are too many types of Uber Drivers but I should remind all that there is no Right and Wrong for the above mentioned types of Uber Drivers. It is all about different people different perception and characteristics that make us Awesome and that's the only You right? Happy Driving and Riding! Driving and Riding with "Ridere"!
