Remember the dayf when you would buy a thing and then that would be it? You wouldn't be pestered for days afterward to leave a review! And yes, I understand that in today's marketplace reviews are very important, but I also have a life and the thought of having to find the language to review everything from my toothpaste to my most recent book purchase leaves me exhausted! I would like to stop being nagged about leaving reviews. Because guess what… Spoiler! Being nagged about leaving reviews does not actually make me want to leave reviews. It makes me never want to do business with whatever company ever again. From my perspective, we had an exchange. I give you my money, you give me the thing. If I like the thing chances are, I'm going to come back and give you more of my money so you can give me more of the thing! What makes me not want to come back ever again is pestering about reviews.
@pawpower this is just like the rair uber, or lyft driver that asks you to make sure you give them a tip when you rate them. one driver did that to me one day, but didn't even ask me. they pretty much told me to give thenm a tip, and I right out of the gate told them ok, I have a tip for you, don't ask for tips, as that makes me rate you lower because you never tell someone to give you a tip. a tip means you went above and beyond, and you sir barely did the minimum. I gave that person a 3, because if you don't want to get them again, you have to give a three, and in the notes, I was honest and told why I gave a three. that I didn't ever want them again, because they told me to give them a tip.
@JamminJerry I had new Uber drivers asked me to be sure and rate them, they did not ask for a tip and they asked me to rate them because they were new and were trying to build up their ratings. And in those cases, I'm happy to help. I don't mind if I can give a rating like between one and five but writing review means actually stringing words together. I am not being paid to advertise for companies. If they do a good job, I will tell my friends and family about them in my own words and in my own way.
@JamminJerry @pawpower on our paratransit app, we have the option to rate our ride, including leaving a note. I give all the drivers five stars because I know them all and I like them. I have a good rapport with all of them. None of them have ever been a jerk to me in any way shape or form. Except that one we encountered when you were here Rox. And she retired in January.
@Cam @JamminJerry And she wasn't even a jerk really she was just an idiot and was not listening to me. Like I could call my doctor and produce a letter on demand when I'm in an completely different country lol
@JamminJerry @pawpower that was the one and only time she ever gave me a hard time. She actually told me I was one of the ones she would miss when she retired. But she could be quite a bitch to others. Passengers as well as drivers alike from all I've heard. But besides that she was always nice as pi to me.
@Cam @JamminJerry It did make me laugh though that I was able to get the gentle leader out and suddenly there was my dog had a muzzle, and she even commented that it was cute that I found a pink muzzle to match her pink service dog harness, and I just laughed! Phoenix has never bitten anyone, but if she chose to ain't no gentle leader gonna stop her! But she's basically a big teddy bear anyway unless of course you ignore her when she's trying to show you her toys and then she's going to yell at you and give you a lecture
@pawpower @JamminJerry well yes. I found out about the toys and lecturing thing firsthand. Apparently being too busy talking to you was no excuse for her.
@Cam @JamminJerry Well, Nancy will be here in three weeks and she will spend a lot of time telling her all about everything.
@pawpower @Cam see I would be the ass and deliberatly ignore her, so she would talk to me. smile. lol.
