This post was made in partnership with Uber, but all opinions are my own.
It’s no secret, my life is always in motion. Literally running from one place to the next is a daily occurrence. Struggling to find enough time to work on the blog before going to my 9-5 and even still on the weekends between required social hours with friends or Katie. There just never seems to be enough time in the day, but making quick transitions between events definitely eases the pain.
Starting my day off with stress-free transportation is so important to the overall success of my day. It’s really the game changer in what allows me to be this busy. Just this past weekend, I got up early to work for awhile at a cafe, rode with Uber home to change, then rode with Uber over to the completely opposite side of town for a few fun hours out with my girlfriend at the West Coast Craft fair. We actually have a car and still chose to ride with Uber there because we didn’t want to worry about parking (a city challenge that makes me sprout 3 new grey hairs every time it’s attempted lol).
We’ve all been there… running late, can’t find parking, super stressed out …so then you get to the destination and want to just scream. It’s not relaxing at all! It would be a completely different experience to show up to the West Coast Craft fair, frazzled and stressed and then try and put up with the crowded aisles and long lines….yikes is right!
But because of our amazing ride experience over the hill, we enjoyed a beautiful afternoon at WCC, browsing the aisles for our next handmade treasure. Moods were fabulous and spent way too much money haha. Bought some art, a custom designed hat and even treated ourselves to a glass of rosé.😋🍷 Talk about minimum time wasted and maximum relaxation!
Probably the main reason I use Uber is to reduce stress. So when I request a ride, I have a certain expectation about the experience I’m going to get. I think the ability to share real-time feedback with your driver during your ride, through Uber’s new On Trip Ratings & Feedback tool improves the quality of rides and is a great way to feel like you’re getting the best experience possible. If not, you can have your voice heard and make an impact more quickly. 👍👍
There is really nothing like getting out of a ride with Uber thinking to yourself “wow that was a really pleasant experience” or having an interaction with a driver that left you feeling better than when you got into the car. When those rides happen, it sets my day off on a new path and can totally change things around… Better ride means better mood when I arrive, and everyone deserves that. 😉
I truly believe riding with Uber should be an above and beyond experience, which is why I appreciate Uber’s commitment to improving every trip through these new 5 Star Rides measures. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
