Uber CEO Makes Deliveries For Uber Eats In San Francisco; Twitteratis Slam It As A PR Stunt
Highlights
Uber CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi, delivered food to people's doorstep in San Francisco for those ordering from Uber Eats. He completed 10 trips and managed to rake in $98.91. He tweeted about this from his personal handle saying "Spent a few hours delivering for @UberEats. 1. SF is an absolutely beautiful town. 2. Restaurant workers were incredibly nice, every time. 3. It was busy!! - 3:24 delivering out of 3:30 online. 4. I'm hungry - time to order some"
While it was great to see the CEO of the company getting into the groove and making deliveries, Twitter absolutely erupted calling this a 'PR stunt'
User Dan Skelley who has been the most vociferous of the lot in calling it a PR stunt questioned the stats presented. He said "Let's discuss ur BOGUS stat page. U did 10 orders ON A BIKE in 3 hrs 24 min. First, U can't get 45pts for 10 trips. Max is 30. U imply 1ride/18 min incl travel time to the pickup with no waiting. Short travel time EVERY time to perfect dropoff EVERY time + only 6 min of down time"
Twitterati Brice Sopher too spoke out about the experience saying "Wow what a surprising conclusion that you, the ceo of Uber, had a great experience working this job. Now try doing it as your only source of income."
There were many such replies questioning this exercise by the Uber CEO, suffice to say, that though it was all well intentioned, there's no wondering how social media will react to it.
