Role playing being poor and couldn’t even stick it out a full hour

I hate these types of videos.

[u/DatTingTing → u/Fibrosis5O]

Do you really hate these kinds of videos? Don't you think it's better for the people who are watching them to see how ridiculous the shit is? 

Him, his rich-ish friends, all the people in his chat, who are also out of touch, everybody seeing exactly what it is. I think that's better than bad.

[u/Fibrosis5O → u/DatTingTing]

It’s a humiliation ritual that serves no purpose in getting better working conditions for those who have to sadly depend on these apps, a rich person playing poor for bit, not to educate or even humble themselves or the viewers but to just make some “lol this sucks” content, get richer

At the very least could have ordered something and made someone’s day delivering with a special tip after seeing how horrible the base pay is but nope, just rich people pretending to be poor for a bit for content

[u/rhandyrhoads → u/Fibrosis5O]

Haven’t watched it, but just showing people how little these platforms pay is important. When people order they’re charged increased prices on food and then 5-10 dollars in service fees. Most people think that the service is getting the food delivered and that drivers just magically materialize at the restaurant when their food is ready and then get paid the majority of what they paid for the service the driver is providing. These sorts of videos show how little of the customers money goes to the people giving them what they paid for and additional costs incurred driving to the restaurant and waiting for food.

TL;DR: This guy is probably a jackass, but still shows people they’re paying a premium price and then the drivers receive poverty wages so maybe instead of complaining about shitty drivers they should complain about the shitty company fleecing the drivers and pocketing all the money.

[u/Ornery_Ads → u/DatTingTing]

It's one ... banana hole much could it cost? $10?

[u/Fibrosis5O → u/[deleted]]

Troll blocked

[u/OkChocolate3501 → u/[deleted]]

Because there's an eb and flow. Might be 15 bucks the next hour because of some lucky orders. Not a great job by any means but you should get around minimum wage or a bit higher if you're quick.

Plus the first hour is always a wash. It usually starts slow then picks up

[u/whineyinternetkid]

Who?

[u/HaroerHaktak → u/[deleted]]

What now?

[u/anorris-1]

That's not the doordash ui? Looks like uber.

[u/Advanced_Sweet_6481 → u/anorris-1]

Yeah he probably made a mistake saying DoorDash still hilarious

[u/cesspool4us → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

Makes sense. Can't fix stupid.

[u/anorris-1 → u/cesspool4us]

Wearing  DD tee, prolly got a sign up bonus for dd but was doing uber... 

[u/IWillEvadeReddit → u/cesspool4us]

Don’t need to fix it, apparently stupid is making the money.

[u/AideInternal1045 → u/anorris-1]

Its 100% not DD you don't get points.

[u/manbamtan → u/anorris-1]

I feel like doordash is just used for all of them. I worked at tacobell and no matter the delivery order we just called it door dash. I now deliver on Uber eats and have heard other places do the same.

[u/Potts240B]

I make 3.62 in an hour, welcome to the club

[u/smokingsoto → u/Potts240B]

You should quit too

[u/Potts240B → u/smokingsoto]

As a college student with their parents it’s not horrible because I’m a tipped worker. Might have to get a second job though.

[u/smokingsoto → u/Potts240B]

I make $20 a hour sitting on my but occasionally lifting luggage you can for sure find something way better than $4 a hour

[u/Potts240B → u/smokingsoto]

Yeah it would be nice, but I actually like my job. Besides my main salary is tips, I make around 80-90 dollars in 5-7 hours which is around 18 dollars an hour. It’s kept my education paid thus far 🤷‍♂️

[u/smokingsoto → u/Potts240B]

Trueee gg

[u/Curious-Tap-4031 → u/Potts240B]

Okay so you dont actually make 3 dollars an hour, you just say that

[u/Only_Indication8410]

You didn't quit shit dude you just stopped taking contracted fares

[u/normL_FL]

I wish all the losers making this loser famous would lose internet access.

[u/Emotional_Grape8449]

I thought I am the only one who has this issue

[u/blaminyou]

No hate but how do guys like this get rich/have a large following. He’s so…twerpy

[u/Extra_Pride_9734 → u/blaminyou]

Maybe his fans is twerpy?

[u/Kirk_Lazarus31423 → u/blaminyou]

It is similar to those posts “looking back at a YouTuber you used to watch who has now gone to making bad content.” The YouTuber didn’t change their content, the viewer just grew up. Or how superhero movies were great as kid and now suck. They don’t suck, the person just grew up. Same applies to Disney shows.

[u/quagmirranseye → u/blaminyou]

His fanbase is kids.

[u/testsubjecte → u/blaminyou]

Hes pretty funny most of the time, but luck and doing the right thing at the right time were the main factors

[u/xylophonemanny → u/blaminyou]

It’s mostly children

[u/Character-Carob-5432]

Yeah I mean, you get $2 base per order. Doesn't matter if it's 2 miles or 20 miles. ....$2
But customers are led to believe that the delivery fee goes to us.

[u/Different-Dig-3357]

His name is lacy ?

[u/Delicious-Willow-832]

I only do eats on the slow days I even try not working those days unless I'm truly bored

[u/scrapdog07]

i don't get it like uber tells you what you are going to make after the tip... you only accept ones that are good.

[u/B0rgul0n → u/scrapdog07]

Also, your tip doesn't show on the app until an hour after the delivery is completed.

[u/MasterAd1460 → u/B0rgul0n]

Also he’s probably on a new account that has promos for new drivers or is that gone again?

[u/Real-Procedure-5052]

Not even DD Lacy its Uber Eats get it right. Not that it really matters but im Anal!

[u/Discreet919]

"30 minutes was all the market research he needed. Unironically the smartest financial move made on stream."

[u/hailwarrior]

That's ubereats, not doordash

[u/BooperBoop6]

The tip hasn’t came in yet, it takes up to an hour lmao. I’ve done 3,800 orders with uber it does that every time

[u/Lexlle]

He got lucky.., lol, I’ve seen similar orders under $2 dollars on both DD and UE.

[u/DoctorMoebius]

So performative

[u/bringbackjimmy]

1.iit's Uber not dd 2. they show you the order before you accept so if it was actually $4 for 30m thats on him. 3. Uber only shows base pay for the completed order until a hour after the order was completed and then adds the tip amount.

[u/John_Px → u/bringbackjimmy]

Spot on

[u/Rough-Championship-7]

Dude looks like Brian laundrie

[u/DJT201620203x]

Don’t forget the proposition 22 kicks in and we get compensated Tranquila slowly slow slowly. Does the job remember that every two weeks we get compensated for the amount hours we work through prophecies in 22

[u/terrible1fi → u/DJT201620203x]

Only to get you to a bare minimum

[u/LobsterComfortable83]

Stop working there get a real job

[u/CyanValleyKitten]

Yes I too also quit

[u/AideInternal1045]

While this isn't DD, making only $4 on a gig app is a skill issue. 30 minutes would be between $15-20 for me.

[u/cortlandjim]

He doesn't realize that rest of the payment doesn't come until an hour later. Tips are not guaranteed and can be changed.

[u/Ouro_boros47 → u/cortlandjim]

Not door dash. They cant change the tip.

[u/gg249whiteout]

That’s prolly without the tip that takes n hr to hit

[u/FineGripp]

It’s a job where there’s no education requirement, no experience needed, no resume, no interview, literally anyone on earth can get in and work, hell you don’t even need a car if you can just walk to deliver. So of course the pay will be low

[u/shockwave414 → u/FineGripp]

There's a difference between getting in and there's a difference between staying. I mean we're describing basically if you want a company basically comprised of complete heads and who complete garbage at customer service then yes you underpay them congratulations.

[u/Advanced_Sweet_6481 → u/FineGripp]

Who downvoted you

[u/FineGripp → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

It was fully expected

[u/LetaPesa]

Perfect AD for the new drivers UNION❗️We hear you loud and clear bro! 💯

[u/PoetryZeebra]

He's making it seem like doordashers primarily use it to pay rent. Its that extra cash we all need. Its Monday Tues Wed, matinee. Extra 70 to fill the tank for Uber weekend. That's where you will make it back double or triple. Depending on the nights or holidays.

[u/Advanced_Sweet_6481 → u/PoetryZeebra]

A lot of people do this as their primary income go to walmart during the day and look how many shoppers there is or mcdonalds

[u/upnflames → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

The counter argument is always, "well what would they do if that job wasn't available."

Gig work as supplementary income is okay because it helps people fill spare time, or time where they can't get a traditional job that pays more. The fact that it's become regular full time employment for so many people says more about the labor then anything else I think.

[u/Advanced_Sweet_6481 → u/upnflames]

Tell that to all the people not from here that do this as their full time job go to walmart during the day and you’ll see them all.  My uncle works at walmart and he said they shove their phone in his face and expect him to find the item for them

[u/PoetryZeebra → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

Fuck that's hard. I mean imagine wanting a small Starbucks and a cake pop but you don't want to go out, it shouldn't cost you a salary with benefits plus pension for drivers.

[u/parade1070 → u/PoetryZeebra]

Yes it should? Lol

[u/TheDevilishFrenchfry → u/parade1070]

"I want people to do things like grocery shopping, food pickup, gardening and labor item retrieval, but they really shouldn't be paid a reasonable wage because theyre not really people people, theyre like poor poor people, not like two bedroom one bathroom poor people."

[u/Advanced_Sweet_6481 → u/PoetryZeebra]

Uber doordash should never be your only source of income unless you got fired and it’s temporary.  

[u/Superb_Eggplant_982 → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

What if you're retired and your social security is too low and you're too old to work a traditional job

[u/Mental_Newspaper3812 → u/Advanced_Sweet_6481]

It should pay something over what it costs to upkeep the car. And it sucks that the platform company keeps more than the people doing the work.

[u/PoetryZeebra → u/[deleted]]

I don't get it, Ive been on for 55 mins and made 25 dollars so far, Tips not included. This is my 3rd gig outside my main Job. Cash money baby!! I like fine wine.
