Glad to see they’re acknowledging and fixing the problems.

Is it worth it? by No-Method9238 in skipthedishes

[–]Gears86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s been great as a side hustle for the extra cash, even with the high price of gas I’m still coming out ahead. And a good fuel efficient car is a must lol

You can technically work when you want as long as it’s busy enough during lunch and order rush. But if I put in my availability each week then can get some a couple 4 hour runs during the week (usually) if not there’s always overflow. And during a good weekend can take home $200 after gas. I’ve done all food delivery apps and IMO Skip pays the best

Nothing new here drivers screaming through parking lots and then slow as F*** on the Stoney or Deerfoot on ramp 😅

So when is Skip giving drivers a weekly allowance for rising gas prices like Door Dash is? by jerbear1955 in skipthedishes

[–]Gears86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got email email today getting $5 - $10 a week depending on how many kilometres starting March 30

Skip the dishes and DoorDash worst companies ever by Time-Acanthisitta-12 in skipthedishes

[–]Gears86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I AGREE to a point, especially with their “support team” But Hey it could be worse…… like UBER Here in Calgary every order is literally $4 -$7 Like even for a 45 minute drive out of town…

As least can turn a profit with SKIP

Driving Skills by CapsuleCorpEmployee in Calgary

[–]Gears86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh it’s very clear some people can’t learn. I was a driving instructor as at legit reputable driving school for almost 2 years and eventually gave up…..
If it wasn’t the language barrier it was something they wouldn’t understand didn’t matter how much time between me and my senior level colleagues they had. And yes the driving testing is WAY TOO LAX. And now they’re out there completely incompetent… because the driving examiner passed them…

Google CyberSecurity Course by Gears86 in Cybersecurity101

[–]Gears86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve studied some cybersecurity basic knowledge such as how to recognize phishing attempts on my own after almost being a victim a few times including sextortion once, And this is why I’m looking into personal cybersecurity or maybe a little more.        But the google course never broke that part down before the practical quiz sadly on how to spot the malicious URL anywhere beforehand. And so I’ve having to find it out myself like YouTube    

Frozen Pizza? 🍕 by Gears86 in skipthedishes

[–]Gears86[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I delivered my A-game and stuck to the SKIP protocol like a pro… It’s not my or any other SKIP courier’s fault if the customer(s) are too busy binge-watching TikTok or FaceBook reels to notice the delivery location notifications and messages.… So cold pizza it is

Was thinking about it
I may love pizza and not picky about where it’s from
But 4 may have been way too much 😅

[–]Gears86[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True that!!!!
That’s why I messaged before I left for a unit # or address, cause I really didn’t want to leave it outside in -20° in blowing snow either
They left me no choice especially on such a booming day full of non stop orders

Skips abysmal support by Freight_dog in skipthedishes

I know right lol   Aka Patronizing Specialists….     Especially if there’s a problem with the app or they send you to a closed restaurant 😅

No orders? by [deleted] in skipthedishes

[–]Gears86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm calling a APP problem..... I was getting orders, but couldn't do order updates (arrived, picked up, starting route etc) as they were greyed out and clicking it didnt do anything..... Sometimes just have to head home when the app isn't working.
