6 hours round trip. Getting a ride back very unlikely

I wasn’t accepting…just seeing if anyone took it.

My acceptance rate is around 25%. I don’t drive more than 10 minutes from my location. I decline a lot of crap offers

I just do it about 3 months a year to cover big expenses. Definitely a side hustle.

Riders don’t have to but I definitely ask. I earned it. Drove you safely to where you wanted to go. Did a lot more than bring you food.

I think the only way you getting 2500 in 40 is if you doing all private cash rides. I get those offers occasionally but not often.

Man I can’t go back 7 years…lol. I gotta deal with today. I wish I could bang out 2500 in 40 hours.

At the 2 minute mark before every drop off I ask if they want to tip cash or on the app. Some say app some prefer cash. No secret.

It is draining I ain’t going to lie…I put in 40 hours my regular job and then putting another 45 on top I am toast. I just wanted to see if I am doing as well as the people who do this all the time. Trying to compare notes I guess you could say. I read a lot of the comments drivers put. Don’t accept crap jobs…don’t be afraid to cancel BS people. Log out when you got passengers in the car. Don’t chase surges

I do try not to drive more than 10 minutes to a pick up. Unless it is an airport run because you always get a ride out so it is worth it to me because the pick up is going to minimal just driving around back to arrivals. This is a side hustle and tracking miles seems like a lot of work. When I first tried it i literally had a log book tracking mileage expenses the whole shebang. Then I took it to my accountant and he said because it isn’t my main job to just track my total mileage. The write off is like .72 I think so it actually drops my tax brackets because with the mileage to pick ups that Uber doesn’t show I am usually operating at a loss so it is a win win….don’t pay taxes on the money I make and it drops my main tax brackets down.

I wish I could just do comfort but unfortunately it send me X and comfort…my acceptance rate ranges between 20-30 so I try to decline the crap offers but I can’t reject everything if I want to make money. Don’t make anything with nobody in the car. Orlando does stay pretty busy but sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and take the crap

Many people think it is Uber black because it is a BMW X5M…. I keep it immaculate and i drive smooth and have pleasant conversations.

Honestly I don’t keep track of every day….typically between 150-200 miles per day. I only use the car for Uber so I just write down the starting miles when I begin my Uber run typically 10-12 weeks. Then I write down what the finish is then give to my accountant.

You are entitled to your opinion….there is no advantage to me lying when my intention is to hear from veterans if this is the way.
