I TOOK AN UBER DRIVER TO DINNER!!! (Finale)

[Music] okay so here's what i want to do take an uber to a restaurant and when i get to the restaurant i'm going to ask uber driver to join me for lunch or dinner whoever does it will get 500. thank you so it looks like we got a driver you want to join me for lunch jeffrey i thought we had something nice going on what happened would you be willing to come in with me for lunch [Music] okay that was a complete non-starter and not to be doing it okay i was too hungry to continue doing this on an empty stomach it's raining outside so i'm glad to be in the car are you hungry i really hope this one works out i'm not getting my hopes up because i've been rejected too many times i would love to take you out for dinner man this is turning out way harder than i thought it would be [Music] funny i am looking to take someone out to dinner would you like to come out with me i've already spent 100 uber trying to do this i've gotten nowhere should i give up i don't know what to do i feel like going maybe i'll do this for another hour and after that uh i think we're gonna call it a day okay i'm adopting a new strategy i've gotten rejected eight times and every one of these times was on this side of the big boulevard so in judaism we have a concept called meshana mukum it means that if you change your location you can also change your luck i'm gonna go to the other side of the street and try to order an uber from there who knows maybe i'll have better luck so we're gonna try right now to order another uber i believe this is number nine and we'll see what happens wish me luck okay so jose my ninth driver is on the way and there's a problem that i didn't anticipate which is my phone battery is at three percent and i don't have a second battery pack so that means that i'm either gonna have to go into a store and charge it for a few minutes which is gonna take some precious time out of the project or i can just call it a night and take an uber back home we're going to try it again hopefully jose will be willing to do it hello hello good evening you hungry yeah man i've been wanting to do a really good deed today would you come out with me to dinner no no that's it why not uh i need money bro okay driver number nine i think his name was jose he said no but i came really close to convincing him i kept telling him that i took nine drivers before him i would love to go and he kept saying i want to come but i need to make money take money and i told him trust me you will not regret it and he said no but i need to make money i need to make money and i'm thinking to myself i have the money just go out with me but he said no the phone's at 2 i don't think it's going to handle more than one more ride but at the moment i just ordered another one driver number 10. his name is yoel which usually means that that's a jewish guy because it's a jewish name maybe jewish guy will be less afraid of me because he's also jewish i don't know i'm not sure what it is but i'm i have a good feeling about this one please please hashem please make this one work i literally flew in from new jersey for this and spent all day trying to make this happen nothing going on we're talking

caesar salad thank you you're the 12th one that i asked and everyone else pretty much said no we have to work we have to make money that's what i want i understand i probably they thought it strange yeah absolutely strange anyway it certainly is strange pretty good i mean you're good i mean but you're going to ask a lot of people most of them during the daytime you're not going to get anybody to do that because probably they started working and all right that's why i feel like you're you're so special because you you're um very what's the word absolutely spontaneous you're cool you're spontaneous you're ready to do it i thought about it for a minute not that really busy out there what the hell i wanted to know i really appreciate really appreciate the fact you came out and i appreciate what you did god bless you and this is i think likewise it's important you know we're making you and i we're making world peace right here in miami absolutely we're it's a jew and a palestinian and god is very proud of us i think you do nothing to me that's right i don't i don't think like everybody that's good i'm sure you've probably never expected that i say yes either because so many of them said no if you were the last one i was gonna give up it was too much like i've been working on this since four in the afternoon oh during the day it's hot how has the pandemic been for you like was it difficult for you financially bad absolutely i lost my not my tax devices i gave up the taxes because i cannot pay medallion them yeah it's very expensive i can't do it no more you know it is and there's no business europe is closed south america is closed and that's what we depend on here hospitality zero is practically zero struggling like you believe yeah it's i'm not the only one for sure everyone has trouble seeing a lot of them they sold their cars it's that bad yeah i mean i looked at other taxi drivers and than i am you got big families you can't pay the medallion or you know pay that company you just gave it up hopefully things will get better very very soon and then everyone will make a lot of money thank you so much for coming out absolutely it was really

caught up with what we're doing that we forget to see and interact with the world around us but when we make sure to open up our eyes our hearts and our minds something beautiful is bound to happen
