#doordashing — Public Fediverse posts

As you might have imagined, last night during the #WorldSeries was a good night for #DoorDashing
There were few lulls.
4:23PM - 10:09PM
18 DD = $120.50
5 UE = $49.73

But it was also a weird night because two things happened that have never before:

1) I had to return a whole UE order because it contained alcohol, the customer had no valid ID, and the Uber app refused to complete it any other way. So be forewarned! (I was shocked that I still got full pay!?)

2) I came *this* close to running out of charge in the EV! It is only the second time since owning the car that it has gone under 5%! The little 🐢 icon came on and everything! It is not usually a problem but with commuting to work 170km (starting with 80% charge) cooler weather, rain, using the defog constantly for 5.5 hours while dashing and an extra long night (I usually only go to 9PM) I pushed it a little too far! 😂 I did 30kph for the last 3km from the last delivery to home base. 😂 🪫 I should have realized the night before and charged to 90 or 100%.

A quick lunch while dashing. Does taking pictures of food prove I'm a millennial...? It was good. Back to the wild roads...

May was a decent month for #doordashing considering I was actually very busy with other things most of the month including one week that I was almost totally absent from. Still got to $1200 for the month. An average of $23/hr.

I’ve noticed a few new faces on the rounds lately but mostly it seems to be me and a group of about 6 other fellows (most of them know each other) that do 99% of the deliveries. I’ve introduced myself to a few.

I’m getting consistent good paying deliveries most of the time. I’m still waiting for the one remaining <5 star review to drop off so I can have a full 100 five ⭐️ rating which should maximize the opportunity.

I enjoy it. I have a system. Although it is definitely less profitable in the Prius vs the EV. And also, I haven’t had an offer for a shopping order in weeks, which is awesome. *knocksonwood*
