Husband Calls an Uber Before Work—20 Minutes Later, He Gets a Text That Stuns His Wife

From kidnapping con-artists pretending to be Uber drivers to real Uber drivers going on killing sprees, it’s no wonder people are a little skeptical of the once well-trusted driving service. It’s really hard to know who to trust these days.

But one Brooklyn driver named Ali is turning that bad rap around with an act of kindness that left Daniel Green and his wife completely baffled.

Daniel tells his story in a viral Facebook post shared by Love What Matters, and it’s sure to restore your faith in humanity:

“This morning I had to call an Uber at 8 am, to return old cable equipment to the ends of the earth in Brooklyn and then still try to make it to work on time. My driver was a (presumably) Muslim guy named Ali, and after I got in I explained that I would just be dropping something off, and once we got there would he mind waiting, keeping the meter running and then driving me back to my apartment?

His response: ‘Why don’t I just drop it off for you?’
Me: ‘What?’
Him: ‘Yeah, that way it’s easier for you, right?’
Me: ‘Uh, yes. That would be amazing.’

I leave the equipment in the car and get back out, still standing on my own block, thinking huh… I hope this works out… I wonder how I could track that stuff down if need be. Cut to twenty minutes later – he’s driven all the way to the place (faster than the estimated time) and all of a sudden three things happen:

1) I have an email from my cable provider, confirming the return of my items and thanking ‘me’ for stopping by.
2) I get my Uber receipt, showing that the trip cost me less than HALF of what it would have if my driver Ali had just done what I asked him to do.
And then 3) I get a text from him, with a picture attached of my cable receipt. Because he didn’t know they would email me, and because he’s apparently the most conscientious person in America.
