      3. If you are sharing the ride with another employee:
        • Tap the "+" (plus sign) on the right to add a third stop.
        • Use this format:
          • Stop 1: Your address
          • Stop 2: Other employee’s address
          • Stop 3: Job site address
        •              
      4. Select your pickup time or drop-off time carefully.
        • Make sure it allows you to arrive on time for work.
        •    
      5. At the bottom of the screen, tap the suitcase icon to switch to your Business Profile.
        • It should display SNAPCHEF.
        • Only book UberX rides (do not select premium or other ride types).
      6. Confirm your pickup location.
      7. When prompted for the Expense Code, enter the Client Name exactly as it appears in the SnapApp.
        • Example: RI Convention Center
