Just curious to know if it's decent money. Out of each order, do you see a percentage or is it a flat rate per delivery? How are the tips?

I do not but I know a few people who have. They all spent a shite ton on gas and did okay but not worth the bullshite of driving around town picking up order and delivering to fricking retards who don't know their own address.

Deliver pizzas if you want to deliver food

I know a guy. Once he realized that he was delivering to trailer parks to people who don’t tip, he decided to be more selective in the area he works. Not sure he thinks the money is worth it. He usually doesn’t know until the end of the shift how close to minimum wage his tips for him.

You’ll make $8.00-$10.00 per hr. and put lots of miles on your car. Read the reviews

$5/hr + all tips. It’s not worth it, people don’t really too much from what I’ve heard

That kind of sucks.
I see them come into restaurants from time to time for pick ups and it seems like they spend a lot of time waiting in the food to be ready

why not just wait tables?
good restaurants are dying for friendly people that can spell their own names and don’t look like they’ve been in prison. Same hours, better pay and no driving

A friend of mine briefly drove for UberEats. It's not worth it unless you really need the money.

Dude I know that did it used to eat for free. He would eat just enough that the customer never missed it.

I will never order from them.

The main perk seems to be flexibility

I’ve been told it’s not like Uber where you just turn on the app when you want. You actually have to sign up for specific shifts. But yeah still pretty flexible.
