3 or 4 times. I work from home (like a lot of people) but rarely have time between meetings to make lunch so I often order delivery if I don't have leftovers or something quick ready to go. I also do most of the cooking and shopping so on days that I'm slammed with work until 6, my wife may pick up food on her way home for us

How much do you make delivering? Here in my country, people get paid like $1 usd for a normal delivery.
It used to be decently paid but now it kind of sucks.

my area is pretty decent. after factoring in cost of gas it's about $25/hour when I'm actively driving. m I live right by the majority of the popular restaurants so if I'm not doing orders I'm just on the couch waiting for them to come in.

as they leave i tell them i left their tip on the bench outside. its attached to a note with a paper clip and they can follow the instructions to get another dollar. they can win up to 50 dollars by playing my game.

I've programmed it progressively harder and designed it differently depending on whether the delivery person is a female or male.

Woman are not much fun. After the first few cards, they give up when I throw anything weird or perverted in there. But the men are willing to go really far.

I had a guy hump my santa claus on my lawn for 5 bucks. Another guy screamed racial slurs for 25 bucks. I rewatch that video on my door camera quite a bit.

I guess what I'm saying is that they need to increase wages for these door dash and grubhub people. Dont they make like minimum wage? What kind of sick fuck takes advantage of people?
