I’ve been doing Uber Eats for about a month or so now and I am so tired of people putting the wrong pin, having apartments on the 2nd floor and up, giving wrong directions, and not coming down to meet me when they know their apartment is complicated. Call me lazy, say what you want but it’s really annoying and I’m really just here venting. It’s especially hard because I’m 8 months pregnant and just trying to make some extra money for when my baby comes, I have a full time job and so does my husband. So it’s very funny when people make stupid comments saying “This is your job” or “get a real job then”. On top of it being summer I just wish people would work with you or be nicer. Oh and when businesses don’t have the food ready or start making it right when you get there is just the cherry on top. What’s the most annoying thing you’ve dealt with doing Uber Eats?

So I had this friend a couple months ago, mind you we’re no longer friends. We both planned on getting pregnant together and it actually happened and we were both really excited about it. We started planning our future with our future children, she has 2 others which I adored. I’m truly upset that I had to end the friendship but her and her husband started acting differently towards me and mine.

Her husband had started being super disrespectful to me and I told him to knock it off because 1 I’m pregnant and was going through it mentally and 2 you just don’t treat people like that. He’d bully me like we were in high school and just pick on me and say disrespectful things. My husband had to step in and tell him to knock it off.

After that we continued being friends and he had stopped for a bit. Mind you he’s done this to other friends and I didn’t know why I thought I was an exception. A few weeks went by and he started targeting me again and I think what triggered it the first time was because I told the group I set a goal for myself and he said I wouldn’t be able to achieve it because he tried and failed so we had an argument about that. So my husband and I had been in a tough spot with the pregnancy and finances not lining up and no car, we were genuinely trying to get back on our feet.

For some reason her and her husband started judging us and he started telling us what we needed to do with our lives. She was comparing our pregnancies and thinking she knew everything when I was getting discriminated against at work. She was in the same situation and did nothing about it but tried to tell me I also couldn’t do anything about it when I literally had done my research and she had not. She thought because she had 2 kids prior she knew what she was talking about.

I was getting tired of speaking up and tolerating this treatment and it’s not what I wanted for my baby so I quit talking to them. They both tried to get in contact with my husband and I and once they realized we weren’t gonna talk to them they dramatically left our group chat. I did prior ask her for space and she still kept texting me and expected me to respond. I finally told them I wasn’t gonna tolerate their behavior towards me and they basically justified it and turned it on my husband and I. We decided to end the friendship and block them on everything.

I’d like to forget about them but they live in very close proximity and we end up bumping into each other often. They just had their baby the other day and I’m not sure if I’m jealous or what but I really wanna see my son. I’m just really upset because it took years to build that friendship and our kids were supposed to grow up together and now I have to deal with seeing them until our lease is up and we can find another place.

How do I get over this? It’s been about 3-4 months now since we ended the friendship and I’m still not over it but refuse to let them back in my life. They never once tried to apologize.
