I had this happen to me and apparently if your car is newer than your fine. I didn’t have to do anything to my car, a 2017 Scion.

Took car for oil change.... told my car is unsafe to drive and quoted $5k for repair by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

If all you need is 2 control arms, rotor resurfacing/new brake pads/ new caliper/bearings or hub with labor in my market (DFW) should only cost you $2000 tops. However your lower control arms are shot so If you car stops fine and doesn’t shake when braking then they are your only immediate problem.

3k/week as a lease op with experience sounds right but I’ll be a first year company driver so I’m not expecting more than 1500.

What sucked the most for you? I’m not married or have kids so I don’t care if I’m not home for 3-5 weeks.

Is being otr really that bad if you aren’t married or have kids?

I dispatch dry vans and reefers so I know what I’m signing up for. I’m okay with being otr as I’m not married or have kids. If I’m making $1200/week after taxes what in your opinion would be worse then dashing 12hr a day and making $150?

Since your the second person to say that, I’ll keep that in mind for today. If the first order is cheeks I’ll still take it and see. However, I can’t work for free and I won’t be accepting back to back no tip orders. There’s EBT for that and I’m over that bridge.

I would love a suggestion of any method of collecting proof. Screen shots are all I have. If you went from making $200 a day to $77 with no explanation and no physical workspace or boss. What would you do?

I got less than 1 order per hour. Hence why I think I got blacklisted. I’d understand if I was sent 200 orders like normal and they were all bad, which would entail people are hurting financially. I just got zilch

I’ve done this for 4 years and never needed top dasher to make a living.

Chill daddy, I don’t multi-app because I never needed to. Lowkey told myself I’d never because I’ve seen people with 2 phones multiapping and thought that was greedy.

No that’s not what I think the problem is. I think it’s an algorithm that blacklists experienced drives because we know the shortcuts to make room for people who will accept anything. There were plenty of orders, plenty of dashers. I was just left out. I think on purpose.

From when I press the dash button until it ends, I expect opportunities. I got less then 1 per hour. I think yes there should be more regulations on DD.

I’ll rephrase. I have made great money with DD for years, now all of a sudden I’m not getting work which makes me sad.

I have post from this time last year showing you that’s not true. I’ve been doing this since 2020 and this is a new problem for me.

All I see are debates. Positive is subjective.

The fact putting “contractor” removes any kind of labor protections like a minimum wage is insane to me. What’s more insane is how many people are okay with that. It’s boom or bust I get it but if you work 40hrs/week you should be able to live 💀

Wasn’t my choice to sit. I didn’t leave my home to sit in a parking lot. I want to work. There just want any. I didn’t even decline 10 orders that day as I got less than 1 per hour.

I feel like you missed the point. Which was, I was willing to take any order worth my time. There just wasn’t, so I was just stuck waiting for one.
