Save a little on gas...it's easy and it adds up.

As a rideshare driver, I'm always looking for ways to save a little on gas or car maintenance. This app, though a little clunky at first, has come a long way and I've now saved right at $100. The app is constantly adding new stations. In my area, Central Virginia, Valero is the biggest provider, followed by Shell. Check it out at https://upside.app.link/3RD83 for a starting boost of 20 cents per gallon. Lately, I have been getting between .14 and .17 cents regularly. Give it a shot at https://upside.app.link/3RD83 . Thanks and good luck. Stay safe on the roads! #Lyft #Uber #Rideshare

Mindfulness: Am I a nut (Almond Meditation)?

A few weeks ago, I let the Twitter world know that I was going to give this idea of "mindfulness" a shot as I struggled with racing thoughts, and an inability to focus.

I couldn't overcome thinking that my Sonicare toothbrush runs for two minutes, and that seems like forever so my two-minute meditation timer must not have been working. Honestly, I kept going in circles and coming back to my toothbrush. After what seemed like twenty minutes, I put up the white flag. I had been trying for a grand total of one minute and 37 seconds. Sad, right? But that brief post was a gamechanger. My great community of friends on Twitter gave me some solid nuggets of wisdom, with the top piece of advice being to try guided meditations rather than silent meditation.

Three things to know about your Uber Driver...

During my transition from Uber rider to Uber driver, I have learned a few things that I hadn't noticed in my prior role. Had I known them I would have had a better understanding of the process, and thus I would like to share them with you. 1. Your driver doesn't know your destination when he or she picks you up. Contrary to what I believed, when your driver arrives at the pick up location he or she does not yet know your destination. As a rider, I had always taken care to be very accurate when entering my destination, being precise with an address and adding or pinning a business (for instance, Hilton Hotel at 100 East Main Street). I always figured I was doing my driver a solid by giving him some detailed information so that they could formulate a route as they were headed in my direction. As a driver, I have learned that when I am pinged for a possible pick up, I only find out these things: the rider's rating and the miles to where the rider is awaiting pi
