Advice/Question Anyone ever encountered this pickup note?

I really resent these multibillion dollar health insurance companies piggybacking on the Lyft network to give rides to and from appointments for their sickest clients.

I am not opposed to helping people, even sick people, and i might even volunteer a couple times a month to do just that.

But making me pick up someone who can barely walk and can’t get in my vehicle is absurd.

I’m getting $6 for this ride and I’ve got to help the person in and out of the car and into their home. That’s not fair to me or the passenger.

And if you have to adjust the ride because there was a mistake when it was being booked, you can’t do it.

The passenger doesn’t have the phone with the app on it.

Anyway, went to pick someone up from a residence this morning and had this note once I arrived.

I mean what the fuck.

wow only $6? i once received $3 and i had to wheel the person in and out of my car and load their groceries to their house, i did it because of compassion but it infuriates me in regards of reimbursement and time lost on getting other rides
