Dubai Uber users: You’re more likely to forget something on a Thursday over any other day, huh.

Uber’s 2019 Lost & Found index is here and if one thing is certain, we’re an extremelyyy forgetful bunch.

UAE riders are most likely to forget their phones and cameras on a Friday, while Saudis forget their backpacks and Egyptians leave their wallets and purses behind on a Wednesday.

UAE riders have been most forgetful on January 1
