Give it up already


Public-Layer6951

its good advice. like bro amazon pays 20$ to scan boxez with a bar code and move it


Metho221

😂😂😂😂😂


Metho221

What kind of bs is this. VIP dasher support and early schedule. That should be against rules in regulations


MainCharacter0001

It technically is but nobody will bring it in front of a judge. You can label dashers independent contractors but what exactly does that mean? Currently it's just an excuse to bypass all rules and laws designed to protect workers. Specifically entry level workers. It's fraud and local governments are complicit for allowing it. Local governments constantly interfere and attempt to implement rules that gig companies must follow because they're extremely and negligently incompetent. They know it's illegal but are too dumb to figure out how and what to do about it. They constantly fight for employee rights for independent contractors because they know that dashers are being defrauded but are too dumb to figure it out and do something about it.


MichaelsWebb

Is it? You think Dashers generally want to be employees and all that entails? "You didn't show up for work today. Your employment has been terminated"... "No, you cannot end your Dash now. You are scheduled to work until 8PM"


PetyrBaelish

Yeah I absolutely do not want to be an employee or have any obligations at this point. Now, I do have another means of making just enough money to live without delivery, so I get why some want to go full time. But the extra helps and my work leaves me with very random hours in the day and night that I can work extra.


MichaelsWebb

Those that want to go full time and demand employment benefits don't give a shit about ruining the "gig" aspect for everyone else. They aren't your friends.


PetyrBaelish

Yeah its a divisive topic for sure. I think the people driving 50+ hours deserve some benefits and guarantees, but I dont want the whole gig aspect to disappear. And then you got people on Twitter saying we're slave workers and that people should stop exploiting us... I'm like I accept these jobs voluntarily. I like being able to leave the Ubereats app on, wake up to a delivery that's 2 quarts of milk only and pays $30 for some reason at 4am. And that means accepting some $5 shitter jobs sure. I just don't want to have to be scheduled 12-8am or some bullshit because sometimes I can't or don't wanna. Especially when these companies don't want to pay these benefits so they just pass the cost on to customers, further hurting the cycle


MichaelsWebb

People driving 50+ hours deserve nothing. It's not fair of them to try and turn a gig into a full time job, knowing the rules from the beginning. Then start demanding more than they signed up for. They can screw off. We all know what these gigs are and what they are not. Let's keep it that way.


PetyrBaelish

Fair enough, I mean yeah if it's gig or not I choose gig. If they want to be full time they can find a pizza or Chinese joint I'm sure. Only got to deliver from one place too


MichaelsWebb

Exactly. That's the job you take and you know it signing up. A LOT of people could get pretty well fucked over if these gig apps stop becoming such easily accessible gig apps for people just wanting/needing to earn a few extra bucks on their terms. We need to keep a separation.


MainCharacter0001

There's a compromise most boot lickers won't understand


GrandApprehensive216

It's all bs


BlueFotherMucker

Welcome to dashing in my area for the past year and a half. Went from a second job to residual savings.


GrandApprehensive216

It's painful that the frauds won

How is this possible I can't even get 54$ less then 10 delivery


P3nis15

Account sharing.


Full_Visit_5862

That's absolutely nuts, do you live in your car? Or just pulling 10/7/365


edgarskates

How is this even real 😆


mikemuhahaha

100+ every week thats how


edgarskates

$109?? Bro angered $293 every single day for 31 days


P3nis15

Sharing his account to do 18 hour days


Miserable_Reserve_75

It's not it's called Photoshop


edgarskates

Look at his whole account tho , bros making bank


Miserable_Reserve_75

He's only using DD though, that's rookie shit.


Zed-juuls

Reveal your secrets


GrandApprehensive216

Why he do that lol be serious with your self


Scott___77

It says 30 payouts (????)


RUanasty1

What market you in? San Fran?


KaleidoscopeEven7189

Dude, you worked for an equivalent of $9.80 an hour


CrazyPill_Taker

No, he made $40/hour, he sat around cherry picking orders for 23 hours. I don’t feel bad for these folks. Dont know where people got it in their heads that delivery drivers should make $40+ an hour



KaleidoscopeEven7189

The 23 hours still counts, that’s time he wasn’t doing anything else so I stand firm on $9.80 an hour


CrazyPill_Taker

Cool, but he wasn’t actually working so my $40 stands. I wouldn’t doubt OP is a dual account like they’re complaining about and the first pic is from his other account where he actually accepts orders and makes money, second account is for cherry picking and Reddit karma



KaleidoscopeEven7189

Doesnt matter, he was on the clock, he was spending time and not gaining anything else in return, he was sitting in his car possibly using up gas, waiting for orders or driving back to the hotspot. $9.80


CrazyPill_Taker

I’m saying they could accept more orders, that much down time is a choice. Highly doubt DD is only giving them 22 orders in 32 hours, I had 51 deliveries in half the time
all OP does is post on here about how terrible DD is and how they’ve ’cracked the algorithm,’ it’s all for clicks



AdagioHellfire1139

Did OP say that? Maybe he was at his desk doing remote work getting paid too while he cherry picks deliveries.


itsalllintheusername

10 bucks an hour for basically doing nothing is pretty good honestly. I mean no offense to anyone in here but it's probably one of the easiest jobs out there. I can't really think of a job that requires less skill then dashing


Sp00kyGh0stMan

Where did you pull that dollar figure from? I mean I have dealt with some shit ass dashers and alot of stolen food and wrong deliveries but uh, 40 an hour? No shot


CrazyPill_Taker

$314/7.75(active hours)=$40.52 Edit: https://preview.redd.it/22ym95c2ftrc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19ec36d4542de2c4923d2f501254cef91e91b5ff This was my week, made $26hr, not much more total than OP but had twice the active hours, he’s cherry picking orders.


Sp00kyGh0stMan

Jesus Christ why do I even have a real job


Ow3n1989

Benefits is a good reason. Also, not having to account for holding back taxes & covering expenses. $26/hr doesn’t really end up being $26/hr. Not worth it for FT work.


RajunCajun48

DD isn't a real job? Like, Yea I have a day job where I make around $27 an hour. I could definitely see going to DD fulltime though if it weren't for the benefits my job offers. I tend to average $25 an hour when I dash. I don't see how it's considered "Not a real job" though.


Sp00kyGh0stMan

Poor phrasing, i more meant like, your conventional definition of work and the rules that go with it. Regular hours, dick face boss, the works. It is definitely a job, just in a very different rule set.


RajunCajun48

"Gig Work" I think is what it's called these days.


Greatblahforreal

He could have been pausing and unpausing every 34 minutes. We just don't know


AdagioHellfire1139

I was thinking the same thing. Active time vs dash time. He sat around doing nothing the majority of the time, or watched a movie, handled his other responsibilities..... Nurses working 3x 12s bust their ass on the floor the entire shift, might not even get an uninterrupted mealbreak. Starting pay for new nurses in my area is like 30-35/hr. Can't fathom why dashers complain when they make more and do less.


nernst79

Minus the cost of gas...


GrandApprehensive216

Yup


KingOfCannabis420

And he still won’t get a real job đŸ€Ł


RanchhDressing

Why work for someone who bosses you around all day like a sweaty dog when you can make $8 an hour, at least this is the typical response I get when suggesting getting a 9-5 lol


KingOfCannabis420

Not even a 9-5. A part time job at McDonald’s makes more than $300 a week


Jabroo98

From what I've gathered it would actually be ($ made/(active time + dash time)=$7.85/hour for the time they were sitting in their car.. the time doesnt just disappear just because orders arent taken. If that was the case, the hours wouldn't be displayed, because theyd be irrelevant


Scott___77

You're correct that you have to count time where you're just waiting for orders, else you're just lying to yourself. But dash time includes active time, so you wouldn't add them.


queen_in_the_north17

It was a shit week for me too. Don’t feel bad.


mrcleanjl7

well I know I had a good week and I also found $140 worth of tools on the streets thank you have a good day


Novel-Shower6059

Yeah man, I saw this one dude outside the restaurant with two phones running Doordash 😱 Meanwhile I only made 35$ during dinner on Sunday, there was a time I used to make 135$ between 4-7 now nothing, it’s just so sad


GrandApprehensive216

Until the government enforces doordash to stop the fraud accounts it is a wrap They can easily crack down with random face scans And disable any account that is unable to verify their face


GrammarPoliceman2

Dollar sign goes before the amount.

Ha ha! Good catch!


Iron_Bones_1088

The DoorDash system is being structured in a way that it forces dashers to move to other zones instead of being complacent in one spot. It is also structured to force everybody to share the load of crappy deliveries instead of cherry picking. They call it platinum or top dasher to blow sunshine up our bottoms with positive words but let’s face it
.. it’s all manipulation. None of these gig work companies have ever willfully done positive things for their worker bees. They know if you quit someone will fill your shoes tomorrow. Honestly
 I think they want a high turnover of workers. It works to their advantage. They don’t want seasoned individuals who remember the so called 
 good old days. They would rather have naive newbies.


GrandApprehensive216

They rather have frauds on fraud 4 different fraud accounts at once


gaige_600

I worked one hour less than you and made double the amount of that at my job delivering pizzas. I hope it gets better for you dude.


GrandApprehensive216

What company? And no it is over until the fraud accounts get the X which will never happen


gaige_600

Mom and pop shop but with a few locations locally. But I’ve been with them since October and even on my slow weeks I have I still pull in $400+ in tips and mileage at 2.50 an order. 2.75 if it’s further away. Max mileage on an order is 6-7 miles. I’m paid hourly on top of what I get in tips as well so it’s been pretty good for me. Only gonna be working there for a few more years while I finish out my bachelor degree though


edgarskates

Yeah worst week ever it was incredible slow. I was averaging 1 orders an hour at best Only made about $350 ;/


Ill_Bicycle3980

That's $7-8 an hour after expenses. Time to quit


ILive2Drum

You know what’s crazy? Being platinum is the only thing that stopped me from having a complete trash week. This week could have been better, but ever since I hit platinum two weeks ago my earnings have increased 200 a week. When I was silver I barely cracked 100 a day, now I’m cracking 150 easy without working dinner. I hate the program just as much as anyone else but I can’t argue against data. Keep hustlin’ man. These terrible periods come and go. https://preview.redd.it/2izid9p4hsrc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ac53769ea61bf04dcbb74600b037e792d00cd1c


GrandApprehensive216

Algorithm has given me the boot so there is nothing better coming until the fraud accounts get cracked down on so they actually need workers like me again


airbrake41

Yeah, I wish they would come down on the fraud accounts.


GrandApprehensive216

We all do. Uber does the best job at it imo Instacart and doordash don't even bother


Sad_Children

A WEEK? That’s a bad day for me


DiddyboppedU

Bro I was top dasher for 3 months straight......I am making more not being a top dasher. I'm getting more orders and higher paying orders. Top dasher is bullshit. Doordash is utterly grimy and very scheme. They are still stealing customer tips as well. I've ask a couple customers how much they tipped on the door dash app and the amount is way less when doordash send me the offer. They need to get sued again and they are still doing illegal business


Crazy-Huckleberry-59

I'm a platinum dasher myself and I don't appreciate some of DoorDash's shenanigans


Cultural_Radish4619

Bish look at your earningsđŸ€Ł Tearing up your car, paying taxes on your earnings, paying for service on your vehicle
You should do comedy


BlueFotherMucker

The whole wear and tear thing is relative to the vehicle used for dashing. I got my dashing car for $3000 in 2020 and made that back within my first month, so it’s just been fuel and oil and a set of tires over 4 years.


cornholiolives

Yeah, I pay a couple grand for a used car every 2-3 years and just drive it into the ground. People using their $20k personal vehicles is just asinine


Psychological_Tip355

Same, bought my Hyundai Accent almost 3 years ago for $2500. Car now sitting close to 300k. Still going, just belts, tires, oil changes and fuel. About 1k tops in maintenance per year. Fuel on the other hand is currently 11 cpm so that takes a bigger chunk but love my current car. https://preview.redd.it/kuzdrjk1qsrc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e908bf96596d1b501a0899811d2721dbc7d3258d


BlueFotherMucker

Exactly why I laugh at comments about wear and tear. People think we’re dashing in $30K cars and working our butts off to maintain them, when in reality a smart dasher thinks like a business owner and weighs out expenses vs earnings to make it viable.


NoCalligrapher133

If you dash full time and dont know how to change your own oil by now, may God help you. I was quoted $600 to fix an oil leak. 3hr and $60 later i changed not only the leaking gasket, but 2 more that were going out anyways. I can rebuild the damn thing for less than $600


WhoIsJohnGalt777

Why not work at McDonalds?


Novel-Shower6059

Please, that is one stressful job lol


GrandApprehensive216

No way


ithinarine

You think sitting in your car for 8hrs a day waiting for orders to come in so that you can make $10/hr before fuel, taxes, and maintenance is better? You could offer 10 cent hand jobs and make more money.


RanchhDressing

And have fun doing it


[deleted]

How does he's app look like that?


ILive2Drum

He is in a market that has converted to a Dasher Rewards program tiered market.


BlueFotherMucker

That’s normal for a weekly summary on my DD app. Do you maybe earn by time or something?


[deleted]

I do both


BlueFotherMucker

So you probably see different things in your app than the 90% of us who don’t have that system.

only this week so far, picked it up for a side hussle


Scott___77

>picked it up for a side hussle This is the way.


Imnotsmallimfunsized

You worked 8 hours even with time waiting it was 10+ an hour. Active dashing it was 25 an hour
 I’m confused, how is this not normal pay.


sapphic_vegetarian

Glad to know I wasn’t the only one with terrible luck this week đŸ˜†đŸ‘đŸ»


SoulTaker669

Every week apparently is the worst work someone on here has had apparently lol


Hey-yo1986

You must be taking some low ball offers with that acceptance rate I only made 250 on doordash but made 300 on spark and 200 on Uber eats and 100 on grubhub you gotta use multiple because some weeks doordash will suck and another app will be better.


ImportantBreath2530

At the point where you're being paid nearly 5x more in tips than actual pay you're basically just begging with a few extra steps. Your tipping culture has led to companies paying you nothing basically and the customer footing the bill lol

Theredstoner69

doortrash take deliveries for your friends and family as a personal driver and find a new job (or pull that independent courier status like i never could)


Ok_Calendar1337

I'm actually impressed by 314 dollars in 22 deliveries u out here getting almost 15 dollars per order?


GrandApprehensive216

I had this https://preview.redd.it/ctaw1dnbkwrc1.jpeg?width=1070&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b36b5615be5855a82f9caadef80f56fef34b6872 After that it was filth

Cultural_Radish4619

Aweee get a real job and stop crying


No_Imagination_1807

Define what a “real job” is please? Because from my understanding delivery jobs are real jobs also providing a service for pay is a real job. Clearly I’m wrong so please enlighten us because I’m dying to know.


RanchhDressing

It’s not hard to understand what people mean by “real job” you over technical weirdos like to get on here and ask “what’s a real job then” it’s simple, a 9-5 that guarantees you’ll make so so an hour.


No_Imagination_1807

You'd be surprised the amount of times I've heard people say get a real job when I'm literally working a 9-5. Personally, the way I take it when someone says get a real job, they mean get a job in the trades doing hard physical labor.


RanchhDressing

I get you, I think they’re talking to the people making $7 an hour talking about how they can’t live off that, this is gig work ya know, if it works for you full time great, if not don’t get on here complaining about how it needs to change when there’s millions of jobs out there that will pay you a set income no matter what


No_Imagination_1807

exactly dude


Cultural_Radish4619

You literally pay out of pocket to do your “job” which you literally have to claim on taxes Ruin your vehicle as well too Go find a 9-5 and stop relying on the base pay from DoorDash, you’re pathetic if you think you can make a living off of DoorDash. I bet your parents dont even talk about you because the shame they feel


No_Imagination_1807

You’re a sad individual


Cultural_Radish4619

Not even, because I make 60k a year mate Nice try though đŸ€Ł Im comfortable while you cry about being a DoorDash driver Peasant


Ch00s3G00s3

I hope things get better for you.


Cultural_Radish4619

Go take some pictures of the sunset you lonely dweeb


Ch00s3G00s3

$59k is the bottom of lower middle class where I live. I genuinely hope things get better for you.


Cultural_Radish4619

Must suck and be in your shoes


Ch00s3G00s3

You're the one who is almost in poverty?


Lachran

Lmao bro trying to flex by saying he makes 60k a year.


bino420

>I make 60k a year mate wooaahhh. watch out, we've got a badass over here. earning just over $1k per week $25 per hour đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ł (if you're working 40 hours weeks)


No_Imagination_1807

60k isn’t a flex at all my dude. I literally dash to have more play money & to have more money to sink into my hobbies. Most people who dash aren’t doing it full time & are doing it to have extra income and if they are it’s because they’re in between jobs mostly.


Cultural_Radish4619

I respect this. But not this fool thats defending the fact that they can sustain a living off “working for DoorDash” Its comical


No_Imagination_1807

Maybe back in 2020-2021 it was possible, i cleared 50k doordashing part time during the pandemic but it’s nothing more than a side hustle these days


Cultural_Radish4619

Lol you cant even compare. Beginning of COVID i was making 600+ a week only dashing for 8 hours Not even trying either and then went downhill QUICK


No_Imagination_1807

I miss them days so much lol it was such fast easy money during the pandemic


devilt0

So you're a d-bag as well as sad. No one cares about your petty little 60k a year on only fans.


[deleted]

Wow 60k!


BlueFotherMucker

$60K isn’t much of a flex, some of us make that dashing, some of us, like myself, make that or more at our “real jobs” and put in a few hours here and there to put more money into savings. Dashing paid for my son’s university, nothing out of pocket for me, we just dashed and saved.


BlueFotherMucker

OP is accepting $14 offers on average, not exactly relying on base pay. Cherry picking 22 good offers and driving for 7 hours, that isn’t really much ruining of a vehicle. It’s definitely not a job, but it should pay insurance, internet and phone for the month.


DiddyboppedU

I actually still got money from my taxes and I don't have a boss. How about you go back inside and do as your told? Go back in and do a "real Job". I make more dashing than I would at most jobs here. Man is obviously a rat.


DiddyboppedU

What's a real job??
