No uber car near BKK for 10 mins while waiting for my bag

Unless an Uber driver is dropping a pax off it might challenging to locate a driver. I think many/most/all of the Uber drivers are focused on city (intra-, originating) passengers.

I had a quick look through some Thai social media and saw no mention of Uber drivers waiting en masse at SBIA/BKK. Some drivers might live nearby, but you're still looking at 30 - 60 minutes for them to get up from their meal, get dressed, drive to the airport, try to find you, etc. Maybe simpler to take a private limo (pre-arranged), AoT limo or a semi-metered taxi?
