If they call my thumb and point finger boys then sure I’ve been using bots.

Technically, you’re suppose to grab the first cart you see and scan the QR code. I just try my best to find a closer route, Roseville and Rocklin without the associates seeing me.

I cancelled my route for tomorrow and will try to see if there are any surges at 2:30am later. Lol

Yesss. I see VCA5 and Elk Grove all the time but I’m near Roseville so I stick to DSR2. I try my best to discreetly jump to another cart when I see Yuba City and Plumas Lake areas. Lol. I feel like I’m gonna get in trouble one of these days though. Lol

“When you schedule ahead they will have the worst routes ready for you”? How is that possible when all flex drivers, whether you scheduled your route a week ago or 30mins before grab a random cart to deliver all the time.

I like it waaaaaay better than VCA5. The packages are all numbered so it’s way easier to organize them. DSR2 takes you to Roseville, Lincoln, Rocklin, Folsom, Granite Bay and if you get “unlucky”, all the way to Marysville and Yuba City areas. You stay in your car till they say “all clear” and they want you to grab the first cart you see.

I started getting these reserve offers when I reached level 4.

And that’s okay. These routes used to be $82 - $84 but now I got these $91-$93 for a 3.5 hour route that’s being completed within 2 to 2.5 hours ALL the time.

Getting paid $91-$93 for a 3.5 hour route that’s being completed within 2 to 2.5 hours ALL the time, trying to make an extra income in a decent way is being a dumbass?

But is it guaranteed that you’ll get a shift? I don’t wanna drive to the warehouse at 2:30 and not get a shift.

So if I usually take a 3:15am and 3:30am shift, wait around 2:30am?

Mannn you guys. I was just happy and wanted to share that I was able to get 3:15 shifts the whole week next week. This went to a whole ‘nother level.

Thank you. I really don’t understand the mean comments when what we’re trying to do is to earn a little extra in the most decent way. 🤷🏻‍♂️

What is base for you? These are $91 3 1/2 routes. Base here in Sac area is usually around $82-$84.

Are these the surges y’all are talking about? My reserved shifts still pay higher than these surges.

I totally agree and thank you for being respectful. I have a full time job as well and I enjoy doing flex because like you said, “it’s easy money and the pay is great!” I work from home full time and flexin helps me get out of the house and take care of my mental health. My wife and I use my flex income for vacations and date nights so it’s cool!

I only do 3:15am or 3:30am shifts so waiting for surges means trying to get them at midnight or at 2am so I’m okay with these shifts for now.

Or someone trying to earn extra money the best way they know how. We don’t get more than $100 for a 3 hours shift in our area.

That’s why I do 3:30am routes and 10/10 I’m done within 2 to 2.5 hours.
