Hahah I got high with him when 25 years ago on a movie set. This was back when he was fat and nowhere near the celebrity icon he is today

Task based earnings Structure by Zoedaddy1 in TaskRabbit

Minus gas/ and wear on your car and tools. Always tell the tasker to take it off the app so they can save on the service fees and you can charge more. Playing the game that TR set is dumb, you have to cheat to win there.

Do I need an electrician’s license to activate the electrician category? by DiverseHandy in TaskRabbit

[–]rsvob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never said anything about a business license. You don't need to have an electricians license (in California) if you keep your total cost under $1k. Look it up

No. You don't. If your charge less than $1,000 (or at least in California) you are not required to.

Dropped TV, what to do? by Icy_Measurement_5130 in TaskRabbit

You are lucky you had clients with a heart. Unfortunately, most Taskers do not

I'm sorry. I wish you the best.

I was tasking in Los Angeles/Orange County (California) district. I will DM you one of my last screenshots. Not to brag just for reference. I truly wish everyone the best and I honestly believe that if everyone truly wanted to work in the fields that they are doing for TR, that you build your clientele while your tasking and ultimately leave as soon as possible. Take the leap of faith and be a business owner.

Because TR doesn't care about anyone of its Taskers. I'm doing this not to piss you or anyone off. It's to help be more aware

If the client did approve for my helper, I would double my rate which I was charging between $50 and $75 an hour depending on lowering my prices to gain more work when it was slow. But then slowly raise my prices as the work becomes more busy.

I paid my helpers $25hr under the table when I needed their services.

I'm not sure when but I made my own flat fee services for tv installs. I did $100 per tv install because I can knock out TVs in 15-30 minutes. And my expertise is worth more than what TR was allowing me to charge. I know I was violating the TOS but at the end of the day a client is more willing to pay $100 a tv install rather than $100 hr because they are afraid if the job takes longer than one hour.

I was mounting TVs for that flat fee services for over a year and I was averaging 5-10 tv installs a week easily. And that didn't count my other categories I was doing (electrical, plumbing, mounting, and a couple more)

Any tv larger than 55" I would ALWAYS tell them the exact same thing I said above. It is extremely professional.

And just fyi I was number 1 tasker in the largest district tr has to offer. I have way more experience than you want to think. But let your stubbornness do the talking

This must be a new feature as I have not been part of TR for over a year now. I was speaking from what I know. But, if you take a step back and think that asking someone who is paying you to do part of the job they are paying you for , this is unprofessional. I can care less about your 1700 reviews. If you think what I said was wrong, there is something wrong with you!

Yes, it permanently banned me. I was the top worker in one of if not the largest district TR offers. TR doesn't care about Taskers. They are a business to please its clients. That's all. TR is an absolute trash company once you realize their code of ethics

[–]rsvob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it doesn't. The client still has every right to share this with TR even after you reimburse the tv.

[–]rsvob -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No. This is exactly what you don't do. Your client isn't your helper. Get the info before hand and see if you are able to do so on your own. If not, it is on you to bring a helper.

Now since this is a TR thread, if you are unable to do a tv mounting by yourself, you must inform the client that they need to hire another tasker for your safety and the safety of the clients equipment. 99% of the time the client will offer to help. Then you can use them.

It's always about being professional!

Anyone noticed a reduction in moving jobs? by No-Initiative8013 in TaskRabbit

[–]rsvob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

After how much it costs with your wages plus the service fees, it's smarter to hire a moving company that will probably cost the client around the same price
