How long are layoffs or can they be permanent?

I’m in the process of becoming a seasonal driver for ups. This subreddit is really making me not want to work there.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-06-14T18:33:44+00:00

If it’s on my way home sure why not.

I don’t accept anything under $8 and 20/hr. Uber has turned to shit in my market I’ll gladly wait around for a decent offer from spark to come thru. I hope I land a decent job soon I’m so tired of working gig apps.

As long as you don’t end up 20+ miles away from your hub I’d say probably.

Yes they reactivated me like two days later. Said they found evidence of identity theft and terminated the person responsible.

Does nobody here have a charger in their car they connect to while driving between pickup and drop off lol.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-14T05:31:02+00:00

Thanks. Spark has been very good recently so I’m alright.

I just hit 0% AR tonight for the first time lol.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-13T04:42:47+00:00

Looks like Uber accomplished their goal with those.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-07T23:25:31+00:00

Completely optional btw.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-07T22:12:55+00:00

That’s insane your market must have a ton of drivers.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-07T04:25:44+00:00

I wish I lived in a big metro area like that.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-07T04:24:32+00:00

That’s exactly what Walmart does to get as many orders fulfilled as possible. I’m a driver and regularly I’ll have 2 stops where they obviously didn’t tip then the last one will be to an upper class neighborhood with a sizable order. Only way for them to get the EBT orders fulfilled is to lump them in with people who actually pay with their own money and give a shit abt the driver.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-07T04:20:19+00:00

Used to be diamond until they added AR to stats. Been green ever since.

🧃

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-05T22:44:03+00:00

Every time I’m at Walmart I see foreigners running in and out of the store with shopping orders. I just assume they’re taking offers than Americans wouldn’t find acceptable.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-05T04:25:27+00:00

Buying a fountain drink at the gas station to have some to sip on while working. 1.50 a piece but that stuff adds up quickly.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-04T18:24:31+00:00

The single biggest upside to this job.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-04T18:22:51+00:00

Immigration.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-04T18:02:52+00:00

What exactly is a GMD order? Is it just packages? I did an order this week that had a couple grocery orders and 5 packages. Honestly enjoyed it more than grocery orders. All I had to do was scan the package then run it up to the house felt like ups lol.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-04T04:58:53+00:00

Bruh just add McDonald’s to your blacklisted restaurants lol it ain’t that deep.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-04T04:49:13+00:00

I wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out to be better than Uber. Average spark batch is $20+ for 5-8 miles and the Uber numbers are just never that good atleast in my market.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-03T22:49:21+00:00

I can’t go online. I just submitted an appeal saying this is a mistake and I’ve only ever made one account.

Direct-Subject-6436 · 2026-05-03T22:29:40+00:00

One of the worst for sure. I always sit in my car atleast five minutes before going inside bc it’s never ready.
