So you are excusing Uber for the low rates in LA, it's just my fault for living here?

I'm sure the rates suck there. Do you want the government to fix them like they did in Seattle? If so reread the original posting.

The drivers pushing for this to be changed into an hourly type job are a big problem. They somehow think they will turn the worlds easiest job into a “guaranteed pay” job that remains flexible and miraculously won’t be flooded even more with ants.

"World's easiest job"? What an asinine comment.

There's shitloads of jobs that are not only easier but safer as well. I've done my share of them.

There's millions of delivery drivers hustling their asses off while dealing extreme heat and cold, rain, snow, dangerous roads, dangerous neighborhoods, long walks to and from restaurants and drop-offs

Tell the widows and family members of murdered or brutally beaten drivers how easy it is.

Unless you work in a super rare unicorn market where money virtually falls out of the sky you've gotta hustle your ass off or you'll go home with empty pockets. These days drivers are going home with empty pockets even when they hustle.

Cashiers Have an easy job. Just because there are rare instances of being held up in a robbery or the occasional bad customer doesn’t make it a highly skilled dangerous job. You have a knack for bending reality. Just like most cashiers job, yours will be replaced by a machine eventually. Ironically, those self-help order things, at McDonald’s are a result of their strikes.

Youve piqued my curiosity…what jobs have you done that are easier than this one that you work or not when ever you feel like it? This should be funny as hell. Professional lotto player, fluffier on a porn set, stuffing envelopes,…

There's also a lot better jobs. Higher paying benefits SSS paid into workman's comp if you fall so many other other things W2 has its advantage subcontractors are good when you're in your own business I'm glad I was buying and selling homes 10 years ago I did ride wanted to do when I wanted to do that was a true subcontractor we're really employees I don't care what anybody says these guys control us manipulate us everything these guys are our bosses. This contractor b*** with kid work is a lie gig work is a lie just like Rideshare is not real work

If you think it’s bad now wait till the strikers get what they want and you are putting in request for the shift you want to work and giving them the size of the uniform you want to wear.

Nothing was said about "highly skilled".

I don't go around ranking down people's jobs because it's disrespectful and their job could be more difficult than it looks. Just because a job isn't physical labor doesn't necessarily means it's easier. Mental labor can make a non-physical job difficult.

"Yours will be replaced by a machine eventually"? Unless you've quit your gig job in the past few hours it's "we" not "yours".

Youve piqued my curiosity…what jobs have you done that are easier than this one that you work or not when ever you feel like it?

Just like you did with the word "skilled" you're introducing the concept of flexible hours which is off topic.

I've had cashier jobs that were easier, I've done clerical work that was easier, I've taken inventory that was easier (but very boring and tedious), telemarketing, etc. I worked one summer as a mover in extreme heat and humidity which was without doubt the physically toughest job I've ever had but I could pretty much work when it wanted to, unlike "easy" Doordash.

I haven't done porn but porn actors say their job is a lot tougher than it looks and I can believe it.

As I said there's plenty of jobs that are easier than gig delivery.

I'll add that it's possible that someone who delivers food because he's "bored" or "wants to get out of the house" , takes his sweet time, doesn't give a shit about making money, hand selects non-challenging orders, and never drives in bad weather, has a rather easy job. But that person is truly an outlier.

If you care about making money doing food delivery you've gotta put effort into and be willing to work when weather conditions aren't ideal. Food delivery is harder than rideshare.

I would never do food delivery. I’d be fluffer before doing that. 😂😂😂 I don’t think it’s hard but frustrating. Dealing with cashiers and clerks would be more than I would want to do

I’m more concerned with how you are messing with the people delivery part of it. I do this because I’m done with hard work. This is the easiest job there is and if you put a little biz sense into it works if you can deal with all the ants.

Like I’ve told you several times, I wish you were going after changes that would actually make things better and not the stuff you want that will have consequences. I’d love to back you up but instead I’m going to work 2/14/24…the day of reckoning. 😂😂

Your alot younger than me. I told many here even part timers . Have a good exit plan. Shut this channel off. I have had a financial exit plan for a long time..but still driver today.

I’m 54 (not that young) and semi retired. This IS my exit plan but I might try to do one more wealth building thing. I’m looking at this thing where you buy a cheap house and rent the individual rooms thru an app. I have a couple of friends that are going to do it. There is a rental shortage where I live.

Every job I listed as being easier than food delivery applies to rideshare.

No one asked for your help so by all means please work 12 hours on Valentine's Day.

Don’t get carried away. I’ll work a few hours, long break, and possibly more after. I’ll be thinking of you though. Hope that means something. 😐

You are correct. No one asked me. My city isn’t listed. It should say everyone instead but you don’t need me giving advice.

 

[Nats121]

Now because people wanted to make a gig job a full-time job and demand more money in the Seattle area we all get screwed. I used to be able to make okay money at night I'm lucky if I get five deliveries in 8 hours now it needs to go back this is insane people are not going to pay $130 to get food delivered. And these people that think that Uber and doordash should be full-time jobs well they should go work for Amazon or something because they just completely destroyed all these delivery apps in the Seattle area.

Tip-stealing liar Tony Xu is full of shit. Doordash is NOT paying $26.50 per hour, it's per ACTIVE HOUR which is a huge difference. An idle driver gets paid ZERO.

He's jacking fees way beyond necessary because he's trying to sabotage the new law as well as rake in windfall profits.

That's sounds very doable.
