UberEats Driver Uses N-Word in Interaction 04-16-2023, 01:50 AM

Was just trying to order food from UberEats, nothing too crazy - just a few patties and cheese since I'm on a carnivore diet (but that’s another story.) When the driver showed up, we said our goodbyes, and everything seemed cordial. He was Spanish, and his english was a bit choppy so there was a slight communication barrier.
It wasn't until I opened the order that I realized something was off. Instead of 12 patties, I got a pretzel bun burger and fries without the shake. So I called the driver up, hoping it was just a mix-up.
But when I asked if he gave me the wrong order, he replied, "I don't think so, I only have someone named Miranda here." That's when I confirmed that Miranda was, in fact, the name on my order. And then, out of nowhere, he asked, "Oh, you were n***ger?" I was taken aback, to say the least. I told him yes, and then he repeated the racial slur twice before I hung up.
I’m usually too busy to care, but It's situations like these that make me question things and alter my view of people. It's not something I dwell on, but it's hard not to when someone is so blatantly disrespectful.
To top it all off, Uber refused to compensate or refund me even after I escalated the issue three times. Amazing company.
