No I'm not making money. Yesterday had one ride, and day before only 4 short rides.

If you're physically able to, apply at Amazon, Walmart of your grocery store. They need stockers or delivery people.
Amazon is hiring tens of thousands of new warehouse workers because online ordering has boomed.

This favors young men. They put a GPS on warehouse workers and they track your movement. Expect to walk 15 miles a day on their concrete warehouse floors.

this is a massive experiment to tank the economy......crime will skyrocket, ubers cfo said requests are down beyond 50 percent and the uber stock is tanking.......meanwhile in brazil, mexico and africa they continue without restrictions.....are they mad? or are we?
South Americans are much more resistant to covid-19 simply due to a better and healthier eating habit. Let's face it, junk food has no perks to our health here in America. That's why people are more likely to die from it.

I'm grossed $96 in 5 hours here in Metro Phoenix. Just enough to survive
Yeah that's a small fortune out there. Not in the northeast though. If I were to average $100 a day. I'd be negative unless I work 7 days a week. I'm not ready to work 7 days yet.

as a native brazilian, I can tell you that the people in Brazil generally don't follow the guidelines given by the government. IF there's a massive outbreak in Brazil, they do not have the structure to handle it.

Why don't you apply? I physically can't do the job, otherwise I would.
Because driving is a "fill in" gig. And the amazon jobs are W2 in the 15-17 range. Rideshare is 1099 and pays more.

As soon as its not worthwhile to drive people I will focus 100% on getting a FT office job.

I think in a few weeks things will be semi normal.

Amazon warehouses should be banned as well as there are too many workers close to eachother, as do grocery stores.... everything should be banned.........only takeout for food shall be allowed, and only if you wear a hazmat suit.................

Sounds like a great workout though 🤔.

If i could get the same pay and be allowed to move non stop a day it's a win, win. I'd even take a pay cut.

Recently, I was the PM and released a new system globally. I had 50+ packages equipment that my coworker and I put together, packaged and set up for shipment. Literally took the whole workday and we were non stop.

Felt like the best work out, better then an hour of high intensity cardio 🏃‍♀

Ummm, I can think of something we could do.
Well I'm always down for a great workout. 🙋‍♀

I think being active runs in the family. My grandma is a savage. Shes 80 now and slowed down a bit but even in her 70s she was always outside working. I saw her scrape her leg and blood coming down, she just turned on the hose, washed it off and kept moving. On the down side she'll just pop a squat and pee in the back yard 😂. She does not care 🤦‍♀

It's not a problem with working out; it's a problem standing. I have nerve problems as well as problems with my back and hand. That's one reason I stopped doing delivery,

It's not because I'm too lazy to but because physically it was getting tougher. Not everyone is as healthy as they may look.
