>made this under 3 hours of drivingEasiest money ever. I told yall you are missing out not doing food delivery man. It is literally printing money.
Would never be a driver in this city, it's so congested I would start believing mental health is a thing if I did it regularly.
>>84747465but uh, how about the money you spend on gas? or maintenance? or insurance?it's easy to say shit like this, lol
>>84747483Yeah, I was thinking that it's not really worth it all those things considered.What if you got an electric bike, though...
>>84747465I lost $17,205.60 in my stock portfolio alone today, don't even wanna calculate how much in metals/check my 401(k)somehow don't think a weekend of delivering food is gonna help much>pic unrelated
That's less than the minimum wage in my state, before your expenses.Get a Class A or B license and drive a truck, anon. It pays better.
>>84747497that takes power instead of gas, plus you don't ride as fast as a car or motorcycle so you can't do as many deliveries in the same timeyou'll still need to worry about maintenance and insurance but those should be cheaper, although your final income will also be lower... you might want to spend some in health insurance as well because driver are going to fucking run you over for all they care
>>84747483Im real conservative with my driving, so gas is maybe $50 a week. Insurance is being helped paid for by my mom, its $75 a monthBut if you are consistent with it you will make way more than that. I just made more than that today due to a tip. so its a fair trade off
>>84747512I got tipped again, tips really make this job worth it anon. I made $20 an hour basically. People are making $14 working shitty fast food jobs here, so for just driving around thats quite good
Anon Uber Eats is fucking tortureTo make any substantial money you have to do it all day
>>84747513So much to think about...I just hope I never get to the point where I have to start doing food delivery, but if I keep fucking up my life like I'm doing now, that might become a reality after all. Oh yeah this is off topic but I haven't talked to you in a while Junas, how are you?
>>84747503Trading stocks is for retards
>>84747515yeah you're getting help from your mom too, you can make more with that for sure but i'm not really buying it muchhere's an interesting task for you, work 8 hours a day with this for 4 weeks and weigh that against all the bills you pay for, every service you consume (estimate if you don't consume it by yourself)at the end of it, come here with how much money is left for you after everything's been paid for, then we can start arguing whether it's worth it or not
>>84747530>$20 an hourAgain thats not bad at all. And you can make even more than that in a better area with tips.Where are you? Im in Memphis. Tips are actually not as bad as you would expect here.
>>84747530563 dollars for 28 hours of work is pretty good ngl
>>84747543Brevard county FloridaI get gas every other day
>>84747533>Oh yeah this is off topic but I haven't talked to you in a while Junas, how are you?Meds now
>>84747539It seems very obvious that unless you have an actual skill like plumbing or electricity medicine engineering etc its really not a terrible job. You work for yourself, get tips, dont deal with any bosses with sticks up their assFor a 21 year old dude it is a great job.But if I were 25 and not in college yes I would agree you are right this is not super sustainable as a long term career.
>>84747533never underestimate or underappreciate the delivery workers, anonthose people do a fundamental job for all of us, if you're pushed into that then do it with pride, even if others won't acknowledge youas for me i've been okay, just chilling and mostly lurking insteadthe board has been getting worse and worse, as expected, so i've been keeping my distance somewhati hope life's been treating you well though
>>84747538duh, that's why I'm doing it
>>84747524My base rate is $27 an hour. It can go up to over $50/hr. Overtime, PTO, fully paid health insurance. This isn't even a particularly well paid job.Drive a truck, anon.
>>84747566you're right, it's not a bad job at all, when you consider thesethe thing is that a lot of people think you do a menial job and will disrespect you for it, you also constantly expose yourself to the dangers of traffic (fights, crashes, etc.) and depending on where you live, the income might not be sustainable at allyou also don't get any paid leave days if you get sick or somethingi know my fair share of people who couldn't make it into their fields and started doing this or uber rides, it's kinda sadstill as respectable as any job, just there might be concerns whether that's sustainable or nottl;dr yes.
>>84747578Good point, it's more that I'm a lazy ass who doesn't wanna travel around too much.Yeah the board is pretty ass, but with summer approaching maybe there will be some interesting anons to talk to.Life's not bad, everything considered, I'm usually the cause of my own problems.
>>84747600NoIt sucksYou will never make more than 22/hr at bestThere's no career in itIt's mind numbingly boring or stressful as fuck
>>84747598Im not going to drop out of University to be a truck driver anon, sorry but thats silly
>>84747603aye, i mean i'm lazy too but lord knows getting to know places would do me well in the long runit will serve you well too if you get into it>summer approachingfuck. why'd you remind me of that...?shit's only gonna go downhill when the kiddies are out of school, god fucking damn it.as for you, then i suppose it's time to be bettertreat your future self to some love, i'm sure he'll appreciate it>>84747614>You will never make more than 22/hr at bestdepending on the place you live at, it might be good, who the fuck knows>There's no career in itthen again you get life experience, driving experience, and get to know a bunch of people, and networking is a powerful tool to get better jobs>It's mind numbingly boringopportunity to study up something of your interest thenyou can listen to a podcast while your eyes are on he road after all>or stressful as fuckthat's a bit of a pinch then, up to you to find more comfy routesthe money is never worth the stress if it's enough to worry about
>>84747656>he thinks you can network with Uber EatsLolLmaoAsking the moronic fast food worker for Anthony's order isn't networking
>>84747663tell me you know fuckall about the field without telling me you know fuckall about the fieldkek, i'm not even gonna bother at this point
>>84747688Field?What field?Of Uber Eats delivery?I've been doing it on and off for the past 5 years cause I'm a fucking loser
>>84747618>Im not going to drop out of University to be a truck driver anonWell, how was I supposed to know you were in school?>sorry but thats sillyI mean, depending on your degree and debt load . . .
>>84747503>I lost $17,205.60 in my stock portfolio alone todayHow? Is that like 2% or did you put all your eggs in one basket? Why do you think you can pick stocks better than the S&P 500?
I would like to be an OTR truck driver but thing is, I'm nearly 30 years old and never had a job. I have driver's license but never had a job. They are not going to hire me
>>84747789Trucking companies usually train you
>>84747812Yeah, they train you but they still want to see that you had work experience for insurance purposes.
I just got tipped again lol this person really liked my service :)
>3 hoursI make twice that in one hour.
>>84747789I had three months of work experience, in an Amazon warehouse, when I became a truck driver at 28.They offer indentured servitude. My contract was for 10 months.
>>84747854Thats good for you anon. I can bet my job is probably 10x more relaxing than yours
>>84747465>48 smackeroonies after 3 hours of drivingI make about $74 in 3 hours at my warehouse job. Plus, I get a workout.
>>84748000You're a lead or smth? I'm probably gonna get a warehouse job in the future gimme qrd
>>84747949Seems so comfy. Having your house right behind you. Being able to listen to podcasts all day. I could do it and be happy. I wouldn't even need to go "home" because I don't have a home.
>>84748069You move heavy shit all shiftGet forklift certified and you can do that instead
>>84748069nah, I'm just a regular dock-worker. Picrel is an example of the type of shit I deal with on a daily (and now, nightly) basis. It's just that I've been there for a long time.
>>84748166I never minded rugsI hated rolled up mattresses Heavy ass tubes with no way to grab onto em
>>84747465i don't have a car anon.
>>84747465That's about how much I make in 1 hour of work
>>84747465the food delivery ship has sailed its not like how it was years ago
>americans basedface for $20 an hour doing deliveryeuropoor my ass. what the fuck is this shit man. indian-tier thread.
>>84747483You can use a rental car, just don't tell the rental company what you're doing with it
>>84748639What do you mean, "its not like how it was years ago," exactly?
>>84747483Steal gas, dont have insurance
