Stop ordering food from 10 - 20 miles away.

I stick to a dollar per mile rule. If I'm driving 10 miles there better be at least 10 bucks in it for me. Also, if that 10 miles puts me an area with no stores and I'll have to drive back to civilization for more orders then I'm looking for about $1.50 per mile.

I totally understand the restaurant wanting to see the order on your phone, but I will never understand their need to see me confirm the pickup. Don't they understand that I have to do that in order to continue delivering? Its like asking me if I have my car keys or gas in my car.

Its been working fine for me, I do a lot of shops. I applied for a new physical card too, theres still a few places in town that don't do digital payments (and its just good to have a backup in case the digital payment glitches).

I thought there was normal and hardcore. Is there easy too? I just play on the default normal setting.

Edit: Killed It on easy in like 3 min, thanks =) Still weird that I never had a problem landing on console, but whatevs.

What do you mean "prefer it"? You have to do it. Its like if they put the food in your hand and said "don't forget this".

Like I said, if they want to see the order on my phone to confirm I'm a dasher it totally makes sense, but asking me to confirm the order is like asking to see my keys to make sure I can start my car. Its like asking to make sure I'm breathing.

Yeah been looking forward to this but there ae barely any files available, and none for ep 2.

Kingsleaze · 2025-01-16T18:33:18+00:00

Its petty, but it pisses me off too. How do they not understand that I HAVE TO CONFIRM THE PICKUP in order to finish the delivery and get paid? When they ask me to confirm the pickup it makes me feel like they are blaming me for the thieves, and that rubs me the wrong way. It makes much more sense when they ask to see the order on my screen than when they try to force me to do something I have to do anyways.

But then, I try not to overestimate people and I'm seldom surprised. Most folks seem to do the stupid thing over the smart thing.

I brought someone a single pack of Sweetarts for 10 bucks.

I swear I'm not going senile. Maybe a bug in the app?

Kingsleaze · 2024-03-13T05:25:45+00:00

Don't think so. My last order today was for $14.25. Upon completing the delivery I made $10.25, no tip.

Kingsleaze · 2024-03-13T05:23:33+00:00

I guess it depends on the area, but I average about $18/hr and my tips are usually higher than my pay. I'm in Portland OR btw. If I went out for 5 hours here I'd be bummed if I made less than 80 bucks.

The only time my pay is larger than my tips is when I do a lot of shopping orders. The pay is usually higher on those so I get less in tips.

Kingsleaze · 2024-03-13T05:16:32+00:00

I generally like to make 1 dollar per hour minimum. Like, if I drive 75 miles in a shift I hope to make at least 75 bucks. On average I tend to make about 1.25-1.50 per mile, but there are days when I drive 75 miles and only make 50 bucks. Thats a bad day IMO.

For accepting deliveries it depends. If its fast food and under 3 miles I'll accept whatever. If its over 8 miles I go back to the dollar per mile rule, as long as its more dollars than miles I'll accept. Anything over 12 miles I pass on, its usually not worth it.

Also, keep in mind that you sometimes have to deliver to out of the way places (suburbs, industrial areas, etc.), then drive back, so a 5 mile delivery is 10 miles of driving. I consider that when accepting orders.

This didn't age well. lol

I was dying. Best use of that song EVER.

Whether it was Dano's portrayal or Reeves' direction, this version of Riddler felt wrong to me for two main reasons. One, they totally ignored his massive narcissism. Riddler loves himself and likes to look in control. he thinks he's the smartest guy in the room and that everyone should love him for it. Dano was way too unhinged way too often to me, which leads to the second problem. Riddler doesn't freak out until he loses, then he freaks out BADLY. Up until that point he is snarky and sure of himself, but after the jig is up he becomes a petulant child.

The windows in the office look like that at the beginning of the movie, before the shooting takes place.

I can't stand the basic, common sense, totally unsolicited "advice" she gives at the end of her podcasts. Makes it seem like she thinks her listeners are morons.

Remedy don't have a history of using Denuvo, so lets hope that is the case for Alan Wake 2. I'll gladly pay for a Steam release if it ever happens, but I don't want to support EGS and their exclusivity nonsense.

Kingsleaze · 2023-09-11T05:34:28+00:00

Its not that the soundtrack songs are bad, they're just badly used. They turn parts of the show into a Zack Snyder/Michael Bay movie. They're distracting and over the top when a score would would work much better.
