So dead out there!

Took a three hour whirl this morning at $65 and.... a 20 buck tip!

Was a little shocked, thought it was a one all crumpled up at first. It was from a bartender at a new bar in Ballard that had a soft opening last night. Very appreciative, I need that 20!

Saturday went well for me, finally having a decent payday this week. 12 hours for 270 + 25 tips + 2 BK Rodeo Chicken Burgers tip (bad idea, stomach hurts). Lets hoping Sunday can bring 2 bills!

Did find a half-full Bud Light in back seat floor at end of night. That shit pisses me off, if you are going to stealth booze at least finish it off!

Saturday night makes two nights in a row with tips for me. Pleasantly surprising. And stealth booze --- had pax actually leave full ones behind (this was months ago). Don't know how I didn't notice it rolling around. Maybe stuffed in seat pocket. Next pax asked if they could have it. Lol.

Nice, racking up those tips! Stealth boozers have no shame. Up there with the sorority girls who try to pile 7 in there while being all distracting .

Sunday was so busy. Didn't get to 200 but got close going from 10 - 6 and puppied out. I didnt have one break all day, was ping after ping. Did get sent to the east side a few times and one airport run. The rest Capital Hill or downtown to Ballard for the seafood festival. Also to West Seattle a few times for that festival. Got yelled at in a very harsh manner by a cop who was on foot, which was a little unneeded but I saw his point.

So happy end of this week!

Rolled out of bed early and got a 4:15 to 7:30 shift in at 82 + a fiver tip. Two long airport runs and two DT shorties. Im going to start putting my tips in a jar and see how those babies add up, have 30 from last three days building up. Going to take tonight and tomorrow night off but going to hit every morning this week plus at least three other later shifts in and see how it goes. So awesome to have next 18 hours off, nap time for sure .

I worked 4 - 7 this morning at $55, yesterday 4 - 7 too at $38. For sure seems to be slow, salvaged today with 2 Cap Hill airport runs, but seems my normal fishing spots in North Seattle are pretty empty.

What is your target $ for the morning? Sorry u may have to drive this weekend . Im at the point Id rather have people tell stories of fun things they did over the Ubering.

That was my target to recently upping to $750. These mornings not helping .

Is awesome you have future plans like that. This morning was a little better at $78 on four rides in 3.5 hours, 3 of them airport. The only thing is the dead head back is killing me and feel like Im putting on way more miles than I should be.

I never seem to catch a ride from the airport area. Im like 7 for 7 of them being really short rides in that area so I just turn the app off.

Where is Chelan?

Wow, that was pretty awesome, didnt even need to type it in .

Can u tell me the meaning of life?

Nice, I slacked off today, only did 2 hours in morning and took night off. Will try to get 25 hours in over the next two days, pray its not slow!

You pushed through the dead zone and made some monies!

Sat was nice, 10 hours @ $215 with 180 miles. Could of went longer but needed to rest as going try to hit 2 bills tomorrow. Will pray again to Uber gods!

haha, glad it helped! I did a 4 hour session at $102 from 9:30 - 1:30, took a Subway break with a 5 buck tip and got lazy and went home and napped. It was a great session. So nice to have two days of non-stop pings. Going to try to go from 7 PM to Midnight to get that last 98! Hope the desperation prayer is extended this long.

Ended up only going 4 more hours at 80 and crashed at midnight. Woke up at 330 this morning with the feeling it would be busy and got 2.5 hours in at 70 and decided time to call it quits and sleep and do nothing all day. Happy to salvage this past week at 7 bills as it was looking bleak. Hoping this week stays hot. My prayers worked and since Im a heathen I never pray, must be desperate!

300 buck non-holiday score, is a good day indeed. Hope u can rest all day!

The surge was mocking me this morning. When I was South it was North, than I was North and it was South. When I was in the eye of the surge it never pinged. Oh well got 6 hours in for 133, a very rare 100+ week day for me.

Sorry Greguzzi that u are running bad. Im usually off the road when it starts to surge in morning so Im a noob, hope it goes tomorrow as going to try to give it a longer whirl again.

Denny that is pretty impressive numbers! Sound like a great day.

Yeah, it's turned to shit. For a while, I was hooking surge rides to the airport between 0330 and 0500. I was putting on a bunch of miles and making a bunch of money, but lately early surge has largely died, and when it appears, the riders aren't paying it.

I missed the party to the 330 - 5 surge, that would be sick. This morning was really good for me. Was getting so lucky on long runs without dead heads back. Got off at MLK twice coming back from the airport and caught rides back to North Seattle both times. I got one surge at 1.5 from Bellevue to Lake City and than one of the craziest stories Ive heard from a PAX.

He was exercising in a gym and a guy broke into his locker and jacked his wallet and keys, AND than his car! Guess the dude had decent size cash and a total pimped out tablet system that is now bye-bye for good. It is open war on cars in Seattle.

4 - 10 $175 with $10 in tolls, but got stuck in a few traffic jams from hell and really ran perfect and not getting much better for me unless it was hella surging.
