I know we’ve had this thread before, but it’s been a while and things change.

I’m off pretty much every Friday and was thinking about doing a little driving on those days and maybe early afternoons on Saturday and Sundays with festival season coming up in the Nola area.
Might grab a few runs to the airport from time to time I guess as well.

I know about not driving to Nola East.
I am not going to do any of the meal pick up and delivery crap either.

Just looking for some stories of those who have done this a little on the side at times

Only do airport drives. The rest aren’t worth it.

This. Driving Uptown can be decent but the city streets will tear your car up. It's better to stay on the interstate and airport runs can net you $30+ each way. Sunday mornings are a good time to pick up tourists needing a ride from the CBD/FQ to the airport.

Not worth the wear and tear on your vehicle
or the personal risk factor.

only way i would EVER do lyft or uber is if i pick them up and drop them off at a police station, and police search and pat them down for weapons before i open my door. and then im still gonna be packing heat with the safety off

I delivered pizzas for dominos 2 nights a week at one point in my life. Pretty easy work. Got paid minimum wage, plus tips, plus mileage comp. Usually would walk away from a solid Friday night tip out around $100 for about 4 hours of work. At that point in my life, it was nice having a little extra cash.

I’m sure you could make more with Uber but just throwing out an easy driving job that doesn’t require much effort.
