Left my wallet in an Uber today in Bengaluru. The driver without my calling (I didn’t even realise I had misplaced it) after some time noticed it in the backseat, came back some distance, reached out to me at a very busy conference (excellent one by 3one4) after somehow tracking my number through my ID, and then gave it back after multiple calls (I was on another call and I generally don’t pick unsaved numbers). I thanked him of course via a token appreciation amount which he took very reluctantly. There is so much goodness in this world which we don’t recognize – thanks again to the young man. His name is Toguru. I hope @Uber_India can also somehow acknowledge this internally. We use X to complain – also wanted to use it to be grateful.
As the post gained popularity, social media users praised the driver for his honesty, adding that stories like this are inspirational, especially in a constantly negative climate.
