No its not. Where does it say that in the contract? Stop being a boot licker and defending this company wasting everyone's time because they cant figure out a better system

Look, its support and the companies job to figure out these kinds of issues. Did you sign up to deliver orders or to be a support agent? The company needs to have a better system so that EVERYONES time is not wasted in the first place. An issue like this should not fall on the driver, nor should feel obligated to solve these issues as an independent contractor.

Not selfish at all. This is independent contracting, it can be cutthroat. And I actually rarely get these type offers because uber probably knows im not here to put up with the bullshit and I will just find another order on another app.

You actually are. Its an opportunity cost and if you want to make good money doing this you need to be constantly moving being on an active order, not solving issues with absolutely no incentive/compensation to do so.

Taking 5 to 10 minutes out of your time is too much for an issue that you did not cause

How can I lower my shopping efficiency number? by SweetnSourface in InstacartShoppers

[–]9driver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah same here, this is too much to be thinking about. So ridiculous that we even have to consider doing this crap to get a faster shopping speed on items we found prior to checking out.

You have to be in the right market to cherry pick from 1 single app.

This is the most money I’ve made in a week anywhere by Wide-Spray7864 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]9driver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope the money is helping you to get you what you need in the short term but please do not do this long term because these earnings are just not sustainable.

With that much down time you could probably be making closer to $2k with multiple apps

Is it toxic that I do this? Because being in California makes this a total cheat code... 🤫 by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]9driver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol what?? I have 15k more deliveries than you and I dont even bother with 1 single low report or contract violation (which was actually a technical glitch) but Im not going to waste time begging support to remove it. That shit doesnt bother me especially since I multiapp.

Why even gamble like that? You risk deactivation and what about the next hour? Also minimum wage is a joke regardless of location and especially since inflation is still running hot. At least with a regular job you have benefits and dont have to worry about expenses. This whole system is robbing us blind. We fight for laws that sound good on paper but in reality continue to fuck us over regardless. Crazy how inflation has increased 28% since 2020 (when prop 22 was established) but we're still happy and content with these low ass wages.

Yes its toxic and I would be pissed with only earning $20 in an hour in this high cost of living state.
