Sometimes passengers leave items in my back seat... I returned a smartphone (I checked the contact list for familiar names or faces to determine who's it was), I also had someone's scarf, and a blouse (I still have the blouse, actually)...
Today, I returned a guys iPad.
I picked up the guy at a 'gentleman's club' in town... actually it was a strip club (nothing too 'gentlemanly' about it)...
On the way to his home, we stopped by the ATM... then we compared notes on the very popular SERIAL podcast (love it!!)...
He was so distracted, I guess, that he left his tablet in my car!
Uber.com has a COMMON ISSUES page for passengers. One of the issues is 'leaving your stuff in the Uber car'...
The passenger went to that page, and he found my contact number... He called me... I returned the iPad... he gave me twenty bucks (that was cool)...
...all in a day's work, I guess.
I had also contacted Uber earlier today, when I found the tablet this morning. I was told that, for returning found items, drivers can send an email to their local Uber contact (for example 'partners.louisville@uber.com' is the email contact for my area)...
The contact will help track down the passenger also.
I took note of that... good to know, for future reference.
