30 Uber Drivers Talk About Their Weirdest, Creepiest Passengers

19. Not really creepy or weird but definitely unexpected and a bit bizarre at the time. Three older women paid me to take them an hour ride to a casino and then by the hour to hang out and give them a safe ride once they were done gambling. I was in school at the time and one of the ladies ended up helping me restructure my resume and this Monday I’ll be starting me new job as a Data Engineer.

20. Just for a positive weird one, ended up becoming a close family friend to three generations of an immigrant family. Grandpa was the only one to order a ride through Uber proper, enjoyed talking to me and decided he’d rather just pay cash to have me come get him to run errands. Not that weird of a request and it was Summer in a college town, not a bad deal.

He was there hashing out details for his daughter/granddaughter about to move to town, figured (correctly) I’d get along well with his daughter who didn’t know anyone in the area. Arranged it so I’d get them to/from the airport for cash whenever one flew in, and over time he was right. Friends with her now, dude’s wife loves talking to me to/from the airport, and even the little granddaughter asks about me if she hasn’t seen me for a while. Drove for about a year, and that’s the most interesting story I have from it for sure.
