According to the University of Michigan, its mission is to develop “leaders and citizens who will challenge the present and enrich the future.”
Tell that to the alleged student and fraternity member at the school who abused an Uber driver last Sunday, March 20, when the driver, Artur Zawada, refused to pick up a passenger who he said was abusive to him in the past.
As Zawada refuses to pick up a group of passengers, one student takes offense and pulls out his phone to begin filming. Zawada, who is filming from the other angle, captures the student saying:
“They don't give two fucks. There are 50 of you and there is one of me here who spends the most money here, you little fuck. Yeah, fuck you Artur, you little faggot fuck. You want to kick me off? Kick me off, you little piece of shit. You're an Uber driver. Go fucking drive, you little fuck. Minimum wage faggot – go fuck yourself. See you later. Go pick up another fuck. You're working all day? Guess what? I'm going to go sit on my ass and watch TV. Fuck you.”
Yikes.
In an interview with The Michigan Tab, Zawada said he knew the customer from previous trips and told the alleged student he wouldn't pick him up after several bad experiences in the past.
“I already told him I would never take him again. He knew that but he didn’t cancel the trip,” Zawada told The Tab.
“I pulled in I didn’t even say anything to the guy, and that happened. So I pulled out my cell phone and recorded him. He should just have cancelled before I came over. They were looking for trouble. They were hoping I would lose my cool.”
Per The Tab, Zwada had a meeting with the dean of the university and the dean confirmed the man in the video was a student at Michigan.
