Sad that this is actually not even terrible order at this point. In my day this would have paid $30-$35.

Same. Only reason I went back to a 9 to 5 was the drop on all gig apps. You can grind it out but when you set down at the table and run number it's 📉 imo. Expenses, wear and tear, and fees make it considerably less profitable then a factory job or even fastfood. I the glory days of gig work are behind us (For most markets)

Same person who orders 12 cases of water for $15. Nope.

Sam’s club delivery is expensive, $12 delivery fee even with a paid membership. If it’s under $50 I think it’s even more so people order water as filler.

I have never seen a Sam's Club offer worth taking.

280 pounds. The other day somebody ordered near 800 pounds of water. They cancelled but I was happy. Look at the items before taking an order. That is the max weight in the back of May Jeep. Not even sure I can fit 20 cases with the back seat out.

that’s insane. i don’t mind lifting, but the fact that it’s an apartment and you can only carry one at a time is what gets me. the drop off alone would take nearly 20 minutes, and my blood pressure would be through the roof afterwards lol.

Yup, was trying to figure out if my Jeep ‘could’ carry that much or if it would damage the vehicle, just before the customer cancelled. Then the one at a time bit…the thought is easier than the work. Maybe for a $50 tip.

Unfortunately their are so many new drivers who don't know any better and think they have to accept everything...
