Yeah, you’re not going to get a lot of sympathy here.

You called a car from your phone, they showed up, and took you to the airport to go somewhere via airplane.
That’s amazing, really.

Is that not enough in life?
You realize that you are quoting a three-month old post? I have long forgotten the incident, but at the time it was noteworthy. These boards are thankfully not restricted to life-altering events.

Well-run companies encourage customer response. They were grateful for the feedback.

This is a travel forum. Lyft and ride-sharing have a dedicated sub-forum. This is clearly an appropriate place to post.
