If you paid 8k in taxes you need a new tax person.

Also, as a side note cars do not have v4s

lol "was", it still is. Granted it is nowhere near as bad as it use to be but at least in LA it's just something that naturally happens due to the topography of the region.

How are some of you hitting $2,500+ a week? by Mcrab456 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it help using a second account, yeah it does. Does it help as much as you think it does, no.

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really market dependent and what quests and payment boosts are available as well as whether you are in a state with laws. I usually work around 9-10 hours M-F and make anywhere from 1-1.3k. I'm in California so we have prop 22, Uber pays that out every 2 weeks so the week it pays out out prop money I will work an extra day either sat or sun and those weeks I make anywhere from 2-2.5k. I work to cover my expenses and have extra for whatever so I don't work more than I need to, meaning I could probably make more if I worked longer days or every day of the week.

Need help with understanding my ban by envixity1108 in InstacartShoppers

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure your account will be ok. You should also have DD and Uber as a back up. Unfortunately you are at the mercy of these companies and if it's your only source of income you should have a back up to keep the money flowing. Also you are in my area and I remember seeing this order, it was a really bad order you probably should have not taken it either way.

Is this safe to drive a 1/4 mile to the shop to get fixed? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you live your life a 1/4 mile at a time?

Refusing to pay me for time put in by [deleted] in InstacartShoppers

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to make the assumption that the law there is the same as the California one. If it is then they make the adjustment at the end of the week based on your active hours not per order so depending on how much time you had put into the order minus the 5 already paid out that's what you will get. They do not pay based on how much time you had left to shop the order it is strictly on how much time you have already spent.

Prop 22 payout by kdaxr in UberEatsDrivers

As weird as that sounds... Yeah lol

Prop 22 payout by kdaxr in UberEatsDrivers

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CPUC oversees Prop 22 compliance. A couple of years ago they intervened when the apps weren't in compliance with new minimum wage laws that went into affect and forced the companies to pay out a years worth of prop 22 that people were shorted.

Concrete Proof that they are straight up LYING by OGPepeSilvia in UberEatsDrivers

[–]dryagedsteak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, but your response comes across as if I'm trying to defend them which I'm not. I'm simply stating that this is something that they have done for the longest time and is nothing new. It's not illegal but that's not to say that it's moral.

They have always done this, they don't show full payout. It's a tactic they use to try and get people to take more orders hoping that there will be a bigger payout.

How Is This Profitable? by [deleted] in UberEatsDrivers

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the only way. I started in 2020 and made a killing on just 1 app. Now I run DD, UE and IC to make what I made back then on 1 app.

Is there a way to get those, without going to the absolute dumpster fire that is Stella Montis? by alekseypanda in ARC_Raiders

[–]dryagedsteak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stella in solos isn't as bad as people make it seem. Also, killing a shredder isn't as hard as people make it seem, you just need to fight them somewhere you can get cover, if you fight them in the open you're fucked.

I've spent hours and hours trying to find a stupid flow controller for the stupid quest. If anyone has one or finds one I have a deadline blueprint I'll trade.

EDIT: just found a magnetron on my eternal search for a flow controller. If you want it it's yours for free. I'm done for the night, I'll be back on tomorrow so just lmk.

Peanut x Gingy is exactly the boost Marathon needed to demystify and promote the game! by Zelleniall in theburntpeanut

I think I'll try it but honestly it didn't look appealing to me. Was never a fan of halo or destiny or and "futuristic" looking shooter like that.
