People who use cab hailing services like Uber and Ola on a regular basis know how tough it can be to book a ride in inclement weather. One Delhi woman got to experience it first-hand when her Uber driver refused to show up – and gave the funniest excuse for turning down the job as it poured buckets in the national capital.

Ria Kasliwal shared a screenshot of the exchange she had with her Uber driver on Thursday. It began innocuously enough, with the Uber driver asking Kasliwal where she wanted to be dropped off.

“Green Park,” Kasliwal, a development professional, replied. Her Uber driver appeared to be surprised at her answer. “Esh mousam me (In this weather?),” he asked her.

When Kasliwal persisted, asking the driver if he would arrive at the location to pick her up, the man was honest in his response. Without mincing words or sugar-coating, he replied “Mann nahi karta (I don’t feel like it).”

So, this happened as it poured in Delhi yesterday! Lol pic.twitter.com/QrAZEq3e0Y
