Would it bother you if you felt like your Uber driver was listening to your conversations? Today a girl talked to her friend for a 40-minute ride about how she felt bad about sleeping with her sisters boyfriend, but didn't know how to end it after a YEAR. I think sometimes people forget I'm there, but I'm in the front seat like this.

I’m an Uber driver and I listen to conversations like this all the time. A lot of times I will jump in and offer my unsolicited opinion:)

I mean, drivers are humans and can't exactly close their ears.. Sounds like their own problem if they want to discuss sensitive topics within earshot of a captive audience lol

This person is about to end up on dateline or true crime after her sister finds out.

Send multiple letters to the address where you dropped her off…For few weeks... address them to “Sister of Passenger’s Name”. And inside - just write “Passenger Name is sleeping with your boyfriend since last one year. #Ouch #DumbSister #DumberBoyfriend”)

So I just moved states. I’m staying with a parent for a while in a pretty large house and my cat keeps hiding for hours on end (I think to snooze). Any thoughts? She’s spent time with me and I walked around with her while she explores. And she’s ventured solo. Seemed she’s warming up well. Except this again. I admit it’s giving me horrible anxiety that she won’t respond at all until I locate her because even I’m learning where things are and want her to be safe. This is the third time 😭
