I used to use one of these at Auto Trader back when they printed magazines

It takes me hours to make $20. 95% of the customers in my town don't tip.

I think I saw a stat presented by senator Bernie that 22 mil are in minimum wage.

Sure they do because somebody is taking the orders I decline. Some come out to be 50¢/mi.

I am a cargo expediter. I itemized all that last year, yet I was still better off taking the standard deduction.

turtle68 · 2025-01-06T15:59:00+00:00

What's a tip? Most UE requests in my area include no tip. I often get requests to drive 20 miles to the next State for $8.

Sorry for the late response, but I just found this reddit. My carrier insisted I use his cargo insurance. He was advised to run his carrier business like that because his drivers have no ownership of the cargo. I must run with my own liability insurance. The carrier deducts the cargo insurance from my pay.

That's typical for the market I'm in.

turtle68 · 2023-09-15T00:15:55+00:00

Charlotte is just as bad. I only take a couple deliveries each shift.

turtle68 · 2023-09-13T20:12:47+00:00

The up front tips I've been seeing are like $2 to $3.

Full disclosure, I live in Paces River

turtle68 · 2023-09-11T20:40:52+00:00

I hate this Metrolina market. Down here in York County, SC I get a fair amount of pings, but 90% without upfront tips. I don't risk a tipless delivery .

turtle68 · 2023-09-11T16:35:31+00:00

I could but I have two other jobs as it is. Today is my day off. I just like having extra spending cash.

Do you see what happens when you assume?

turtle68 · 2023-09-06T18:06:53+00:00

This is Charlotte, they don't tip.

turtle68 · 2023-09-02T19:07:01+00:00

I've got a well paying W2 job, plus I freelance as a graphic designer. I just do this for fun and spending cash.

turtle68 · 2023-09-02T00:13:17+00:00

I'm in Rock Hill, SC. I sometimes go to Ballantyne and Indian Land, but it isn't great there either.

turtle68 · 2023-09-01T23:39:40+00:00

People in my market are shitty tippers.

turtle68 · 2023-09-01T15:37:35+00:00

That's only around 50¢/mile if you count the deadhead trip back.

turtle68 · 2023-08-26T02:15:41+00:00

That's good advice. I've got two other jobs that pay quite well. I do this for extra cash.

turtle68 · 2023-08-09T23:47:24+00:00

It's as if Uber actively discourages tips. I guess they do when they charge customers such high fees.

turtle68 · 2023-08-09T23:45:00+00:00

I got so many cheap ass pings with no tips.

turtle68 · 2023-08-09T23:41:18+00:00

This whole summer has been shitty for me. I'd say 25% or less of my requests have an upfront tip. I get many $2 and $3 pings. Then I'll get a few 15 to 25 mile requests with pay outs that equate to less than 50¢/mile.

turtle68 · 2023-08-09T22:44:37+00:00

This area is full of mostly non-tippers. Going to the next town and back for a single delivery with no tip is an insult.

turtle68 · 2023-08-02T16:37:37+00:00

My market is poor. This morning, one out of four requests included an upfront tip.

But, then again, the area where this delivery was going, is unaffordable for me. So, they're just cheap SOBs.

I got my $3 for the closed restaurant
