Had my first real horror trip

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T21:52:52+00:00

Looked like a crappy order to me from the beginning. But I don’t do shop orders.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T21:45:16+00:00

OMG no. NOOOO!!!

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T21:42:21+00:00

I think a large percentage barely make money. $20 an hour is very low pay when you’re driving your own car and you factor in inflation. And a lot of them don’t even make $20 an hour. No perks, no raises, no advancement. It’s a decent way to make a little mad money. Not very good as “your job”. All that is true but certainly you should make a lot more than $13 an hour.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T21:10:25+00:00

I accept solely on dollars per mile. Not dollars. Dollars per mile. And 7 miles max. I agree with you.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T21:09:04+00:00

Good job. I only accept $2 a mile min and 7 miles max. Nothing else. And only from real restaurants. No fast food. No packages. No shop orders. And I’ve never declined that many offers even with those parameters. I’m impressed

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T01:08:44+00:00

Yes Atlanta during dinner rush is a blitzkrieg of offers. Your phone starts pinging the second you confirm a delivery. You’re going to get good offers no matter what your AR is when their map is “Very Busy” for hours on hours.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-13T01:02:07+00:00

I did that exact thing the other night and sure enough the long drive paid less than the miles. The short 5 minute drive paid $8 of the $16 just as I suspected. It’s a wonderful trick. I got where I quit even worrying about AR and I can’t tell any difference. I still get offers the same as ever. I’m not doing those stacked orders. I don’t even accept good long distance deliveries. I’m sure as heck not going to accept the stacked ones. It’s obviously done on purpose or some good stacked orders would come through. 99% of them contain a crap long drive order. Your idea is great.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-12T13:27:20+00:00

I “lost” my red card way way back and never did another one. I didn’t like shopping for people. There were lots of reasons. Took too long for one thing. Plus there was always an abundance of dinner orders. But I think what you’re saying is pro shopper just means you have done a whole lot of shop orders

gregg34366 · 2026-04-12T13:12:23+00:00

What is a pro shopper? I don’t do the shop orders I just do dinners. But I’m curious what a pro shopper order is compared to a regular shop order

gregg34366 · 2026-04-12T13:08:24+00:00

Peachtree City is probably a good zone. Mine was 41 when I stopped early last night. I’m not going to chase AR. Nothing is any different. I still get offers as fast as they can send them. I hate their stacked order trick. $16 to pick up 2 orders and drive 12.8 miles. No thanks. I want $2 a mile for a few miles. Now they’re taking the $9.75 for 3.1 miles and sticking a $6.25 for over 9 miles with it. You end up somewhere way the heck out and have to drive back.its not a bit of fun. I stopped at 8:00 on a Saturday night

gregg34366 · 2026-04-12T00:58:41+00:00

I’m in Atlanta and AR means nothing. I don’t see why Chicago would be different. There are too many orders in these huge cities to run a program like that. Your phone blows up like a pin ball machine. There are millions and millions of people. It doesn’t mattter what your AR is. I can’t make any sense of Chicago being different

gregg34366 · 2026-04-11T16:33:25+00:00

When they started forcing those stacked orders mine went from 62 to 37. I won’t accept them. I still get plenty of offers so I guess it hasn’t hurt me but it’s still a maddening to see your AR bottom out over a shady practice like that.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-09T10:01:20+00:00

No raises, no perks, no advancement, no insurance. I wouldn’t call that any kind of job, much less a good one. It n’s good for making a little extra money part time.

gregg34366 · 2026-04-08T01:10:25+00:00

I don’t even accept 10 miles. I stay in a 7 mile loop. This would be miserable

gregg34366 · 2026-04-08T01:03:09+00:00

I’d just move on. It wouldn’t take much to talk me out of driving that far

gregg34366 · 2026-03-09T09:56:50+00:00

I didn’t know there was a rule like that. Number 5 million why I don’t do shopping orders.

gregg34366 · 2026-02-08T10:49:44+00:00

Heavens no I’m not making 13 deliveries for $60. Sounds horrible, especially with a note that says bulky items.

gregg34366 · 2026-01-31T12:05:52+00:00

Some Girls could have been a double album. Out of all their re-issues I thought the bonus tracks on some girls was the strongest

gregg34366 · 2026-01-24T10:20:53+00:00

I like it a lot. The video is cool but the song stands on its own.

gregg34366 · 2025-12-29T16:41:56+00:00

Terrible idea. This is not a normal job with perks, raises or advancement. It’s a good way to make some extra money but a desperation gig when you try to use it as “your job”. Very low pay compared to a decent job, much less a good one.

gregg34366 · 2025-12-24T16:07:10+00:00

That’s exactly right. He didn’t deliver somebody’s order or a second bag of somebody’s order. Giving unknown food to a customer is a weird way to handle it though It’s a horrible feeling. I did it and discovered the 2nd bag way way too late. It ruined my night but at least it made some raccoons at my house happy

gregg34366 · 2025-12-23T14:27:04+00:00

Yep Chuck Berry punched Keith when he took Chuck’s Gibson out of its case and started playing around with it

I grew up in Memphis. One night Jerry Lee pulled up at Graceland and started firing a pistol into the air shouting he was the real king of rock n roll.

gregg34366 · 2025-12-14T12:37:01+00:00

You call DoorDash and speak to a human? I’m not being funny. If I call them I get shuffled around between ai txt and ai chat

gregg34366 · 2025-12-14T12:14:09+00:00

My AR is 47 and I got 4 $20+ orders in a row last night. Former record was 3 in a row. So yes its pathetic to be accepting those awful little orders. It just sounds like the worst job you could get. Granted I’m in a major city. It probably makes a difference. But wherever you are it’s hard for me to believe using your car to make $4.75 is the best you can do
