astroturf bot thread

>>54823051
back to doge faggot

>>54823042
What are the downsides?

>>54823080
pay can be "low", I mean, you should make atleast min wage after expenses, I drive literally an hour to get to a metro every day and I still make min wage or over

I don't know, you deliver food, it's pretty simple

>>54823064
board dead. Only grievers left, you wont grow anything on here. leave

>>54823104
don't care, suck me off

>>54823042
I havent done it yet but if i do 10 rides this week theyre gonna pay me $200 extra.

>>54823114
then keep wasting whoevers money for your astroturfing. its going to be wasted and shit on and the goal is to destroy it, your job obviously of advertising shit

>>54823206
I didn't even name a specific app you faggot, back to the xrp thread

>>54823188
I've never gotten promos like that, must only be in certain areas

>>54823290
ofc you didn't that is not your job astroturfer

bump bc i'm interested but have no idea where to start. I also live in the uk and dont know if it's worth the trouble doing it with a car

>>54823312
I'm talking about a way to make money and you're shitting up my thread, kys

>>54823314
what do you mean, just sign up for the apps, lol

>>54823042
Yeah I enjoy the being alone and not much social interaction
Have you tried doing multiple apps? Right now I’m doing door dash and Uber eats. On the waiting list for instacart, Amazon flex, and grub hub. Any others people use? Getting a free meal once in a while by canceling a customers order is my favorite perk of the job

>>54823368
if you would have mentioned whatever shit you are paid to advertise you would be banned already. where is the phone poster spamming the name of whatever shit you are supposed to astroturf

>>54823452
lol pedro is funny

in my area, uber eats is better because I do like 8pm to 4am, no need to schedule

also I just think uber is better about support, and the app generally is easier to use

>>54823514
Yeah but door dash pays more and I don’t have to schedule every time I use it.
Using 1 app vs 2 is like the difference between $10/hour and $15/hour. More if you choose your hours right. Uber eats does have many benefits but using both gives me more options. Sometimes I pick up an order and forget to turn off my other app and get another order in the same restaurant. I want to add a 3rd app in the mix

>>54823314
Just download the apps and follow the instructions
It’s simple and you can use it any time
>>54823188
Stay away from Walmart on ubereats
Those deliveries are usually grocery deliveries with small tips

>>54823798
yea in a busier area where you can do that it's probably better

>>54823826
walmart will take 30 minutes to bring the order out and then the orderer will cancel, just don't take walmarts no matter what

>>54823051
Literally begging people to waste their time driving

>>54823870
how am I begging anyone, I drive every day, for me it's better than trying to get a job, pretend to be a faggot for hr, whatever, fill out 3000 applications just to be a grunt doing the heavy lifting no one else wants to do

nah, I'll deliver your stupid mcdonalds for 8 dollars and chill driving around at night

>>54823042
It's nice as an in between job but I wouldn't do it long term.

>>54823042

Man I have been saying this for YEARS on these boards. Uber/Doordash etc was literally made for the kind of fucked up autistic incels that haunt these boards. No set schedule, no boss, no minimum amount of hours you have to work. Just make a little money on your own schedule whenever you want with no pressure. I have made at least a quarter million from this by now. And actually my accountant told me one of her other clients cleared 100k last year from uber driving alone. All you neets need to get with the program and get yourself a cheap used Prius and get to it.

>>54824074
The negative responses are glowies. They don’t want anyone on this board working or making money. 4chan is a honeypot

>>54824217
>And actually my accountant told me one of her other clients cleared 100k last year from uber driving alone.

everything else was true or possible but this set off my bullshit alarm, good one though

>>54824307
I live in a big city on the west coast of the US and I could see how someone could make $100k doing Uber rides and eats but I bet they have to work 6-7 days a week or 10-12 hour days if 5 days a week. Also picking the right hours help a lot
Making money by delivering food on an app is kind of like a video game and can get a little addicting when you hit a groove. I should turn on the app more just for extra cash but then I want to eat fast food for dinner when i do it

>>54824362
trust me I go almost every day, basically they have to be making 30 dollars an hour doing 8 hours a day 7 days a week, every week, and that isn't even enough to make 100k, so, either 12 hours a day would be needed to make that possible, or people just make more in cali

>>54824362
this is probably the way to make significant $$$. Or you can buy cars and lease them to illegals like they do in some third world country that i live in

>>54823042
In my area there are too many dashers, it’s so bad I can’t even schedule a dash.

>>54823042
Has anyone used one of those delivery services for a man with a truck?

>>54824422
$30 hour is easier when you run 2 or more apps or live in a high cost of living place where driver % and tip add up to more. Big city America is peak tipping culture. I’ve made $30/hour but that was on weekends 6-7 hour days picking the best lunch and dinner hours. Using DD and Uber. My city has a big food culture and large amount of hotels though.
>>54824509
People do it but cost of gas makes them earn 50% what they would with a cheap gas saver car. Motorcycle riders probably have the lowest costs and fastest delivery times which increases the amount of orders the algo gives you

>>54824217
>>54824307
Not bullshit. I made 116k gross last year but I lived in Vegas and drove 6 days a week

>>54824723
How many hours/day?

>>54824723
How much did you spend on gas? That’s the biggest cost and it adds up over time

I saw some guy riding an e-bike the other day delivering food and I thought that is pretty neat. Very low cost on his part and could use the sidewalks etc legally.
Can you jeets give me a little break down of how much you can earn? How many deliveries in an hour to make say $20/h? Also are you talking after tax? Where I live tax is generally deducted first.

>>54824876
generally the most deliveries you can make in an hour is 3

>>54824963
What are the deciding factors on how much you make? Do you need tips to make it worth it?

>>54824876
You could do 4-6 an hour during busy times, 2-3 during slow times, using 2 apps. 2 big deliveries or 3-4 small ones would be $20. All of this is before gas, maintenance, and tax in my country which we have to pay later if it’s over a certain amount

>>54824986
you need a shit car otherwise depreciation of the car generally makes it earn less than minimum wage

>>54824773
8-10

>>54824809
about 35 bucks every two days. I have a toyota corolla hybrid and the optimal range is 420-450 for 9 gallons

>>54825327
> toyota corolla hybrid
Perfect car for delivery driver

Anybody do did delivery on a motorcycle/scooter? You have to be 21 to drive people on Uber so I was like thinking about buying a Honda scooter and doing food deliverys. I hope this is better than working retail.

>>54826559
Should be legit, might be annoying to haul multiple deliveries at once

>>54824986
Tips are generally like half your income so yes

>>54823042
the job can be a little relaxing in the right circumstances

great so we get to hear you complain about
MUH TIPS
even more. fuck off wagie

i was considering doing this once a week as my second job. theres an app called roadie seems pretty good.
im also going to apply to postmate, grub hub, etc.
all the delivery apps that dont involve riding people

>>54828223
My tips are fine, I just don't take no tip orders nothing personel

>>54828233
I think Postmates uses uber eats for delivery. At least in my city

>>54823042
Only remotely worthwhile in America where your immigrants are Mexicans that do gardening work and your Indians work in tech companies. In Australia (and I'd imagine Canada and UK) there are shitloads of Ranjeets these days. They both scam the fuck out of everything (meaning you have to stoop to their level to compete), while also being content making half of what McDonald's pays. Also cars are toxic environments to sit in. There are filled with flame retardants and other off gassing chemicals, it's genuinely bad for you. Your post sounds right and there are even more reasons it should work for /biz/ guys but the reality is it just doesn't. Driving and delivery are basically offshored jobs at this point. They only pay enough if you plan to retire in India.

>>54829323
Unironically Australia pays drivers great, mostly everything else about your country is pure shit

India is preferable to living in Australia

No, the pay is abysmal when calculated by someone with a decent IQ. First let's look at what maccas workers make. Obviously we take the casual adult rate from here because the permanent rates include paid leave and you have to be older than 20 something to drive Uber. I couldn't find more recent rates so already these are 2 years behind so you could add at least a few percent yourself. A big thing people forget about is super. From this July the mandatory employer contribution is 11%. Uber does not pay super, you are supposed to do it yourself out of your massive Uber earnings. Superannuation takes total earnings for the lowest rung of fast food employment to $31/hour on a weekday. On the weekend that becomes $37. Also they get paid breaks every few hours. You don't even get paid when you're driving to your passenger on Uber. Next I will discuss Uber pay.

>>54829965
>>54830154
To give you an idea of Uber earnings this is something Uber sends me every weekend to "entice" me to drive. It varies week to week from about $30 to $38 and probably most often $35. Last week was $34. These are the "prime times to drive" for earnings. They are also the worst times in history to do any work, let alone public facing work, let alone strangers in your vehicle work. Any other job has high loading pay at these times. For Uber, $32 gross is your loading pay. And the gross bit is more important than you think because you get murdered with expenses driving Uber. First up you pay 10% of your gross to the government in GST. Poof that's gone. The fuel cost will be about 5% if you're driving a hybrid and driving it efficiently. Probably double that for most people. Maintenance likewise budget 5-10% of your gross. The upfront cost of the car is brutal. I think I calculated it very conservatively at about $3/hour if you drive a decent amount of hours and more if you don't. You'll pay at least twice that to rent. Then there's insurance + extra rideshare insurance, registration fees, rideshare registration fees, background checks and more. Thousands per year. You should also count the times you need to get fuel - those are like the opposite of the paid breaks at fast food. Also fines. They're inevitable when you're driving all the time and they wipe out days of work every time you get one.

It is literally a 100% paki job here. Taxi drivers do it in between fares.
Maybe it operates differently in america but you just don't do this here as a white male.

>>54830399
Dumbest reason ever to not make money

>>54830842
You don't make money with Uber, you lose it. Some people think "I'll drive Uber with my new car since I'll have so much to write off it will be a tax free income". What income? You realise even earning back the fees for your government accreditation will take you a retarded amount of hours. You also realise it's not as flexible as you thought. If you try and drive at the wrong time you'll gross $10/hour.

I'm telling you in America it's different. You don't have the same immigration trends as the rest of the Anglosphere.

>>54823042
these gig jobs are comeplete scams, working for min wage

>>54823042
why would you shill this if you're actually a driver, yea let's just make the market more oversaturated than it already is...great idea
>>54823080

>>54823042
Is it worth it to do this in a rural area? I tried ordering from one of the apps last week to test the waters and it seems like there is a glut of orders with no drivers around here in corn country (US). It takes almost an hour just for someone to agree to take your order. How quick does DoorDash accept new drivers? Do I tell my car insurance company?

>>54834030
For me, there were no orders where I live so I drive an hour to get to a metro area, signing up is pretty simple, it's like signing up for a kyc crypto exchange

>>54830953
Still better than being a wagie

>>54832514
You think a 4chan thread is going to spring you indolent negros into action, half of you are telling me, muh pay is too low, my feet hurt, it's a scam, give up

If you're not athletic then yea, you could catch a blade, I'm fast have great reaction time and a stocky build

>>54823452
>Getting a free meal once in a while by canceling a customers order is my favorite perk of the job
Be careful with doing this, I used black magic to curse the wagie that stole my family's dinner and I saw his face in the news because he was shot by a nword for the like $45 he had. I literally did a blood oath ceremony to swear my revenge and it came less than a year later. I even remember his name, Neal.

RIP Neal, I hope that cheesesteak and chicken fingers meal was worth it you motherfucker.

>>54835498
>If you're not athletic then yea, you could catch a blade, I'm fast have great reaction time and a stocky build

>I would simply dodge between the nigger's bullets and teleport behind him... heh, nothing personal kid...

You won't even see your killer. The MS13 beanfrican american probably shot the guy in the head through the door because he was expecting a hitman or something.

That's the time with the least traffic, so pretty chill to drive then

You're the one bringing up gay shit, I just drive and deliver food

You'd rather be forced to say black lives matter and that new Britons are valid

I just say, uber eats Timothy

>>54835568
You won't see the obese cholo wearing a white t-shirt as he limpwalks up to your car, good one

as a white man, I also believe a good percentage of my customers are minorities

black and brown people are paying me possibly from ebt cards, I'm directly receiving gibs from black and brown people

>>54830399

You don’t know shit

The only driver I will respect is the taxi driver man or the guy who gave me a ride home and advised me to work as a psychologist because these days the whole gen z spends FORTUNES for 30 minutes of them justifying their shitty actions, by pretending to listen to them I'm only getting 0x0 to buy me a car in the future

>>54823042
Why not just get a normal delivery job so you can avoid the expenses of the car?

>>54837850
Lmao they're not gibs if you have to work for them. You're running around, bringing people their food like a slave for pennies. And you're telling me niggers are ordering you around for free! All the while Uber is gets a third of the money for doing nothing (you are financing a tranny in SF getting $200k/yr to make hate speech PowerPoints and play ping pong). Then with what's left after you've done all the work and taken all the risk, you still owe uncle Sam so Deshawn can get his EBT card topped up and order you around tomorrow. What an unbelievably cucked existence.

>>54823080
>You're an IC, so you get the tax burdens of such plus no benefits from the company

>Have to deal with fast food workers and the general rift raft that goes into fast food restaurants
>Insurance companies will increase your rate for commercial driving. Or if you don't tell them and get into an accident, they probably won't cover you if they find out you were delivering food (it's risky).
>Mileage and wear-and-tear on your own personal vehicle.
>Without a customer tip, most trips aren't worth it from a dollar-per-mile PofV. And depending on the app, the customer can change the tip amount after delivery, so it's possible to be tip-baited

You're still a wagie. In fact it's worse because you have no benefits.

I do uber eats. My car is paid off, reliable and relatively cheap to maintain. Get 10% cash back on gasoline purchases with my credit card. I only deliver on weekdays during daylight hours, usually 7am to 4pm (I like to avoid rush hour) I generally make between $800 to $1000 a week before taxes/expenses. This is on top of the NEETbux I receive every month.

>>54848709
That’s how you do it. Inspired me to start driving today

>>54848709
8pm to 4am is the least busy in my area, sometimes you can't even see a other car on the main roads

Less drivers less competition and I think uber bumps the base pay well I know for a fact because I delivered a 16 dollar base pay at 4am or something 3 miles
