They told to wait in the lobby but didn’t say why. It was this Asian lady who could barely speak English. 15 minutes later another dude took my pulse again and explained why. He also said diastolic was two points from being over. My heart rate and blood pressure aren’t going down. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me before hand. Idk for sure but I think I’ve been too stressed for too long and it’s staying that way. Not seeing a reprieve.

any chance you have a driver's license? I would try being an Uber or Lyft driver if I did.

Yeah that too.

I heard a story about some Indian lady and her sister who just leased a car specially for Uber and took turns driving it in shifts

My mom tried working as a driver for Pizza Hut a while back and came to the conclusion that the wear and tear on the car outstripped any money she was making in the long run. Sounds like it would be true for Uber drivers as well if she was right.

Everyone I talk to who does it says the money is worth it. I'm thinking there's a difference between pizza delivery and Uber in terms of the money you make.

The Batlord · 07-25-2019, 03:55 PM

Or perhaps younger people just don't factor in car maintenance into expenses when doing driving jobs.

Or perhaps they do but the money is worth it. Neither of us knows first hand.

All I'm saying is pizza delivery seems like worse money. They get what... Around minimum wage plus tips? Plus Uber drivers work the hours they want and take the specific requests that they want. You don't have to pick up anyone you don't feel like picking up.

Nah dude a lot of those 3rd delivery services rip you off big time as an employee. Like they deduct whatever tips you make out of your wages.
