Martha Stewart’s first Uber ride: Apparently, it wasn’t a good thing.

On Monday, domestic-arts guru Stewart harnessed the power of her Instagram account to say that she’d taken her first Uber ride, with less than satisfactory results.

Stewart made sure to note that, rather than employing the cheap-o version of Uber, she had “ordered the most expensive version.”

“My very first Uber! I ordered the most expensive version to pick me up on Fifth Avenue and 57th street in front of Tiffany’s,” Stewart wrote.

Stewart went on to detail the experience.

“The first Uber did not show up The second Uber came ten minutes later and parked halfway down 57th street where I could not see the license plate,” Stewart wrote.

“Then we were facing east when I had to go west and south,” the “Martha Stewart Living” icon continued. “Took twenty minutes to face south west Etc etc it only took a bit more than one hour.”

Stewart concluded, “On top of it all the car was a mess inside and out!!!!!!!! And I want Uber to succeed!”

Stewart included a photo of a car interior that … well, it wasn’t exactly a pristine display of homemade doilies and centerpieces.

A number of commenters suggested that, perhaps, a person of Stewart’s stature should employ a different mode of transport.

“You have to order Black Car,” read one suggestion.

“Uber is basically yellow cab minus the paint and meter. Try looking into private ‘black car service’ like Executive Transportation Group “based out in BK,” read another comment. “They handle a lot of corporate and VIP clients. This driver still has no excuse to keep his car dirty.”

And then there was, “Welcome to the real world Martha.”

And, “Welcome to the humbled years, Martha.”

“We were so disappointed to hear about Martha’s negative experience this morning – especially on her first trip,” an Uber spokesman told TheWrap on Monday. “We care about each and every ride, and have been in touch with Martha and her team.”

Uber the Movie: Who Will Play Travis Kalanick? (Photos)

A movie adaptation of ride-sharing tech giant Uber seems inevitable after CEO Travis Kalanick stepped down Tuesday. Scroll through for our dream cast and a few choices for lead role of Kalanick.

Travis Kalanick played by Dave Franco

We think the younger Franco brother can definitely tackle the role of executive jerk.

Travis Kalanick played by Jeremy Renner

Renner would be another good option - he already has Kalanick's perma-squint nailed.

Travis Kalanick played by Jeremy Piven

Our next possibility for the ex-CEO is Piven. Casting him as Kalanick would be like "Entourage" meets "Mr. Selfridge."

Travis Kalanick played by Miles Teller

Teller is definitely able to play a full-of-himself bro, and his squint game is A+.

Travis Kalanick played by Adam Devine

We think the "Workaholics" and "Pitch Perfect" star could bring a good amount of "bro" to the role.

Susan Fowler played by Dakota Johnson

Fowler wrote a blog post that set off Uber's crazy chain of events and subsequent investigation into the company. Johnson is a total look-alike.

Emil Michael played by Rami Malek

Malek is very skilled at playing odd, creepy characters. That makes him a good fit to play Michael, who quit as Uber’s VP of Business amid complaints of harassing and sexist behavior.

Eric Holder played by Courtney B. Vance

We know Vance can play a stickler lawyer after his performance in "American Crime Story: The People vs O.J. Simpson." We'd love to see him investigate Uber as the former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.

Arianna Huffington played by Melissa Leo

The media executive and board member was the target of a sexist remark from Bonderman that led to his resignation. Huffington was on the subcommittee that analyzed Eric Holder's report.

Liane Horsney played by Sarah Paulson

Fresh from Google, Horsney joined Uber as head of HR in January. She told USA Today that employees' problems are "pay and pride, not sexism." We choose Paulson to play HR role.

David Bonderman played by Robert Duvall

Bonderman resigned after making a sexist remark to Arianna Huffington during a company-wide meeting about the investigation. When Huffington suggested having more women on the board would encourage more women to join, Bonderman said "actually, what it shows is that it's much more likely to be more talking." Duvall is our pick.

Driver in dashcam video played by Riz Ahmed

We're inspired by Ahmed's performance in "The Night Of," where he steal's his father's cab for a night. As an Uber driver, he'd be a great pick to tear apart Kalanick in the viral video.

Kara Swisher played by Constance Zimmer

The tech journalist has been following Uber's controversies, and has a hand on the pulse of Silicon Valley. We think Zimmer could handle the role.
