This is almost too painful to bear witness. None of these results are causing me to regret pulling the plug on this last fall. 75drive seems to have had a solid week...assuming his on app hours reflect true hours worked. The rest, "ouch". And this was a "peak" earnings event. Next biggie is Riot Fest...only 6 weeks away, hang in there guys!!

$1350, 52 hours, and 1200 miles. At an aggressive .30 a mile, $360 in expenses so clear under a grand... not even $20 an hour and that's as good as it gets.

What are temp jobs paying these days?
Not $20, more like $10-12. But if you worked 12-16 hours at an $18 OT rate, and didn't pound a thousand miles on your car, it's probably close to a push. The break even # is prolly somewhere about $15/hr @ 50 hrs/week. YMMV.

You can keep all the Uber Pax, I never meshed well with most my Uber Pax, just different type of people. Lyft riders are more my style 90% of time.
Everyday I hear my Lyft Passangers say "I use to use Uber, but not anymore". Lyft is the safer alternative.

Strategy of working the higher guarantee $ hours and staying in the western burbs paid sufficiently. $275.50, 11 hours in car, 224 miles. Wasn't looking for big bank just my normal weekend but appreciated that Lolla meant they moved the higher $ up to 9pm to midnight which meant I could get home earlier each night. $32 in tips on Saturday covered gas for the weekend and still left about $15 for pocket money.

Also consider it a successful week when guarantee payment > Uber fee. In this case, guarantee payment was about $100 greater than Uber fee.
