@@Eyescout222 I can’t really teach you, you’d have to talk to someone. But if you get a 10-99 for taxes that’s where it’s applicable. You’ll need to talk to a CPA about what and how to write it off.
Door dash is nice if you're saving for a purchase, or just want a little extra cash. For the time and hours and wear/tear you put on vehicle, I don't think it's worth doing full time. But, it's the best part time gig out there where you can make up your own hours! (My opinion)
Shit if I could make 9 grand in 45 days I could get a used car for 2 grand and use that just for deliveries all depends on how good you are with money for me to make 9 grand at a 20 dollar an hour job takes me 3 months not 45 days
Those jobs don’t hire for shit. I went to an interview for ua local 43 and after they got done bitching saying that in 10 years, 80% of their workforce will be retired. they told me they only hire 14 people a year, only in march, start out at 13 an hour, and you don’t even get paid for class room hours.

#4: wear and tear on your vehicle! Being a mobile mechanic, if your car is a point a to b please dont do this kind of work unless you can do your own repairs yourself. From my experience, most of my customers who do these delivery jobs like this live in apartment complexes that do not allow for me to fix their cars in their lots. So that forces me to try to make deals with their apartment managers, yes I take that role on even though it's technically not my problem, to get a job done in a certain amount of time(max 4hrs-they needed a new motor and I had 4 hrs to remove their blown motor and install the new one*managed to get it done in 4hrs and 7mins* and the apartment complex had already called a tow truck to tow my customers car, she drove away in her car as the tow truck was pulling into the complex). Or if you have a mechanic that offers it, they pull up and load your car onto a car hauler and take it down the street, off the complex property, to fix your car(this does cost more because of the time it takes to bring a trailer, load your car on it and go to a close secondary location to fix said vehicle). Please if you do this kind of job, keep this in mind!!!!
Fun fact: in Hungary I made 132 dollars in 10 hours, with 40 deliveries cycling in the pouring rain. (With the bonuses and tips included) btw next day i have spent the day in bed. (I cycled more than 90 km-s) Normally I earn 44 dollars in 6 hours. The situation is really crap here. Oh and we pay 27% taxes after everything we buy. 😂
The base pay is garbage from the delivery apps, you depend on the tips by default, unless you take shitty low money orders under $7 every time for like 10 miles+ which is just a waste of time and money lmao
@@adityakhatri2413 exactly. I dont worry about tips because I only take good offers. So even if the tip is zero, I got a good base pay from Uber. People taking shit orders and expecting the customer to go back to their app after they ate and add extra.... are dumb.
@adityakhatri2413 then they drop your AR 😂😂😂no tip to bad. Get shot oh well. A tank of gas for an hourly pay of 3.75 nothing wrong. You made a 1 dollar an hour that you didn't have an hour ago.
I am from Australia, I never order UberEats, Deliveroo, Doordash or Menulog coz I am being charged more (it's cheaper to directly order exact same thing from the exact same restaurant), the restaurant is unhappy because these companies are taking 30-40% commission from restaurants (results in lower quality and quantity food) ,, food takes ages to arrive and is cold when it's delivered, lastly the guy/girl who delivered is earning less than 1/2 the minimum hourly wage. They appear so frustrated that they are probably spitting in the food. So stop being lazy, support your local business and walk to pick up your food. You save money, restaurant is making more money and it's a healthier lifestyle than picking up your spat on food from the door !!!
If I order door dash from a restaurant it’s way more expensive per meal than just getting it yourself. I only use these services if I am traveling and want quick food delivered to my motel room.
@@a552bcx idk about that. I called a sushi place by me one time to ask a question about their menu on door dash, becauae it was missing items compared to their normal menu. The guy asked if I'd pick it up instead of using door dash if he gave me a free sushi roll because they charge him a fee
@@ryan370 go pick it up yourself if you don't like the higher price. the total price is much higher because you got to pay for the delivery which pay the driver and whatever company that sets it up. there's no free lunch brother
Is like $10 an hour after expenses and wear and tear. Is not all rainbows. The the "60 online hours" that's only his driving time. He most like worked more than 80 hours for the $1500 on UberEats. Not hating, just reality. I do it on and off. Sometimes 0 hours a week. Sometimes 30 and sometimes 70 plus. What I like is the freedom and flexibility and basically no cap on how many hours you want to work a day. 12 "driving" hours on Uber. No limit on DoorDash. You need a 30 plus mpg vehicle that's worth less than 10K and preferably below 5K but still dependable. Yes, is hard to find them but they're out there.
The independant contractor is one of the main positives for uber eats😂. If you play it right you can write off your car, your fuel expenses, your phone bill, the miles you drove, your car insurance, a home office and so much other shit. I was an independant contractor for ayear i didnt pay a single penny in taxes and my return was still like 4k😂😂😂
I work for a government agency that pays people money when they retire or become disabled. Everyone thinks they're so smart not paying taxes until they find out they're not eligible for anything when they fall on hard times
Buying graded comic books on ebay is expensive so I'm using doordash to pay it off. I think door dash is great if you have a money goal. Not so good if your completely relying on door dash for your livelihood.
You also get to decide what you wear to work, when you start and when you stop. There are downsides to working for a massive company or working for yourself.
Business owners, self employed, independent contractors don't get O.T. What's he complaining about? He new those things going in to this! Notice he is not quitting though. What he did not mention are the tax breaks for business related expenses! Everything has it's up and down points.!
Im 18 it just make sense that I do it at this age. I encourage to only use it until you develop a skill or use it when your in college. I plan on only using it until I get into the elevator union
The biggest problem is that they expect tips before the foods delivered, that's just not how tips work at all, its based on the quality at the end of service.
@@joeycampbell940 In delivery apps it is it’s not like a traditional server job servers aren’t paying for their own gas to serve tables and most of the time when a delivery is late or whatever else it’s bc of the restaurant not the driver so why would I waste my time and gas and actively lose money just because the restaurant was late or the customer decided to cheap out and not give a tip after the delivery?
@@joeycampbell940 how exactly do you deliver food wrong it’s literally picking it up and driving from point a to point b I’m not going to take a order that has no tip just for the customer to decide to not tip bc I got caught in traffic or the restaurant was late giving the order
@@ThatFilmisGnarly they definitely should take off the tip option and be upfront with the costs. It’s a marketing thing I think. Drivers in big tipping areas are going to promote the company to their friends. If it ur barely making tips ur not gonna tell talk about it

You're really upset that the people actually working hard are a bit heated during a rush? 😂 I wouldn't be surprised if you wrote this comment after you were getting wound up over wait time. I watched this old dude get insanely upset because all the order was, was "nuggets." But then you look on the McDonald's screen in the kitchen and it's two kids' meals.. Surrounded by four more orders and a full drive thru. One lady was running in and out to do order pickups and when she came in exhausted to call out a lobby order, they laughed at her for being incoherent. Losers.
@@GuzzlingDuck you do realize that time is genuinely money in these kinds of jobs. your in a rush to make a decent hourly wage the longer people take the less money you make for the hour now i understand if a restaurant or establishment is busy that’s fine whatever but some places prioritize dd and ue more than actual walk in customers at least that’s how it was at a subway I worked at but some places arnt even busy and decide to stand around with their thumb up their arse and wait till said driver arrives to even start making the food which is bull
that’s why i love pizza delivery. i work part time. drive for 5-6 hours a night. get hourly wage of 9 a hour. free food. paid overtime. i average 28 a hour total after gas. most i’ve made was 45 a hour for 4 hours straight
I also heard that for one of the services I think it's Uber eats, people can list the tip before you deliver and then cancel the tip after you deliver so that you never actually get the tip. So that's another reason not to drive for Uber eats I guess
Signed up for door dash for shits and giggles in case I get bored one day. (Don’t need the extra hustle or cash, I’m doing just fine without it.) Then door dash keeps calling me and emailing me why I’m not dashing and that I should get out there. Lol. Like isn’t this supposed to be up to ME if I WANT to dash on MY free time? Wtf lol came at me like I’m employed and on a schedule or something . Told them off hahaha.
@@velvetrooster5569 no idea. I basically told them that I’ll dash whenever i wanted or felt like it. They just kept trying to have me go out even with my kids in the car etc. I’m like wtf? No, I’ll get around to it whenever, then they said ok and that was that. But still texting me and emailing me every day to go dash. Pffft
The tipping culture in the US is absurd. Why should a delivery driver be reliant on tips? They do nothing beyond the job description to earn a tip. The company needs to pay you guys more, calculating tips as part of your income is seriously fucked up. Why should a customer who is already paying more for delivery also be expected to tip? Am I supposed to tip the UPS or FedEx drivers too?
I mean- Technically, you can pay a monthly fee to have the delivery fee deleted and a discount on the fees in general, like with doordash. So, you actually don't pay much at all in delivery this way since you make your money back in 3 deliveries. They have to redo the entirety of the service to bypass them making enough money to be a service. Not sure how they'd do properly without charging even more money to compensate for livable wages.
Then the fees are incredibly more expensive bc the company now has to pay the driver a livable wage. More than likely the fees would then double if not triple
The issue is you're acting like you're someone who cares about working people having a basic standard of living when in reality you just want a pizza, you're too lazy to get it yourself, and too poor to pay a decent amount for it. Tip or don't tip, but don't act like stiffing your driver is some pro labor rights stance when it's just you being cheap. Because at the end of the day the companies aren't going to pay a livable wage just because you refuse to pay an extra $3 for your meal that you were fine paying $40 for. You want to take a stance against the greedy, billionaire owning/ruling class? You don't do it by screwing over the full time workers you depend on for food.
I want to make a parody video called what delivery drivers think the world is like. And then walk into a restaurant and hand the waitress a tip before I even sit down lol.
i live near by the hamptons and during the summer time i go to do uber eats there when i’m free. it’s actually ridiculous how much money i could make in like 7 hours
And reason number 4, these companies take advantage of you and your vehicle and couldn't care less about you. They only care about the paying customer. It breaks my heart to hear how hard people work for so little, but the determination will get you somewhere. I know, I did instacart for a year and a half making pennies busting my @$$ through college.
That is 7 weeks of work at 60 hours a week it's approx $20 an hour minus gas, wear and tear, medical and taxes I would be shocked if he takes home 10 an hour after expenses.
I do this after my construction job. I use this money as my allowance for take out smokes drinks etc. The extra things in life and it works out plus it keeps me out of the house
@@xystumpy187 there’s ways around it my guy . Gas and mileage expenses . Phone bill expenses , etc . I’m prepared my boy . I have a very good accountant
Here's 3 reasons I don't use 3rd party delivery services: 1. I can get it faster myself 2. The food is hot when I get home 3. There are no delivery guys pissing in my trashcan.
Yeah I never order food. Even pizza. It’s quicker and cheaper to get it myself plus I can check my order before leaving. Most people I know will order food at the drop of a dime. It’s crazy. Maybe if I were completely wasted.
@@jsocialsi work as an in-house driver for a local pizza shop and as a cook for another local pizza shop. 3rd party delivery orders are bottom priority, the order comes in, gets made, sits on an unheated table until the dasher shows up, the only care given is whether they got everything they paid for. Pick-up and/or in house delivery, we actually want you to get your food hot and timely, and if youre a good tipper you might get plates and napkins and extra sauces without even asking.
I followed 3 rules when working DoorDash: (1) work part-time only, (2) avoid areas with consistent low-tipping customers, and (3) reject deliveries that fell below a predetermined dollars-to-mile ratio. Very few exceptions were made.
You forgot to mention as an independent contractor you get approximately 59 cents a mile tax deduction for you expenses by the federal government, most of the time you end up paying zero in state and federal taxes!
I mean I’ve been working Uber eats for 3 years now and I’ve been $76000 a year after gas. If you file with a good tax person there’s so many tax write offs that you get money back at the end of the year . Don’t listen to this guy
76k of PROFIT? Not to doubt you cause I’m sure it’s possible since I use to Uber people around and made 700 only doing weekends. But I’m curious as to how many hours you average a week to make that if you don’t mind me asking
@@dexrugger8030 nice nice. That’s pretty good. I drive for sysco doing 12 hour shifts but they pay us overtime, look into them if you’re already putting those kind of hours. They pay 33 an hour and 50 with OT. Not to mention you don’t gotta mess up your car
Exactly what I was thinking when these dumb companies came out…. I mean cmon at least reimburse people on gas cards or fill up for so many deliveries or more incentives- wayyyy to much shear and tear for nothing that u are getting back from. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
@@dwong98 okay tell me how that helps. You get money back at end of year I guess that’s good in a way obv… idk all the details but just doesn’t seem to add up to make a decent living.. there’s always exceptions
Why would you need overtime if you making the overtime amount every hour of the day. Being your own boss and working your own Hours is the biggest upside to DoorDash not the pay. Even if it pays a little less then your job it’s just about the freedom
I did it for 2 years and my transmission went out due to it. But it's a good side gig. If you ever need 40 or 60 bucks quick you can get that in a couple hours
If your good at it your expenses will be outweighed by your pay you should be at a 4-2 overall meaning $4 per mile driven or at a decent 1-1 depending on the price of gas in your area. I make a total of $120 everyday I work and drive around 40-80 miles 80 miles would be a bad day for me. This job though is easy If your single have no kids there shouldn’t be much to complain about it just work until you feel like taking a day off or better yet do what I do and make delivery part of your everyday life that way your always making money and putting in what you spend or more. This job is 50 times better than dishwasher or bussing ever was for me and I get to do what I want when I want I don’t need to go to anyone or fight for a schedule maybe with doordash during the summer but I usually prepare for it next year I’m taking it off to go to Japan I would never be able to do that with a W-2 job never.
@@DreacoPlays Like I said depends on my days I drive as little as 30 miles to a horrible 80. Usually I’m making that on my bike or scooter but with this heatwave I’m stuck in my car. But it’s what I said I still prefer this over restaurant work any day of the week you need to be careful on what orders you take if gas is expensive in my area gas is barely getting to $4.99 a gallon again but that’s not going to last.
#1 Reason Not To Work For Food Delivery Services: It kicks your cars ass. Many maintenance repairs, gas is outrageous and not many people tip, only people who have any class tip.
The independent contractor part is a reason for working for door dash and similar. Not a reason to not do it. It's VASTLY better to be a independent contractor than a w2 employee. Generally you'll pay less in taxes if you track your expenses right.
@@nbatalkz6635 Me and my husband do uber eats full time and we make $200 less than 20 deliveries. We live around Very rich areas. So it's very possible. Tips are great.
The one thing a lot of people forget or don't seem to understand is that these delivery apps were never meant to be a full-time job they're called side hustles. If your choosing keyword choosing to work full-time you can't complain about the pay because like I stated before it's meant to be a side hustle.
That is so true it was just a side job for extra money but it became a regular job now and so they truly depend on it to pay all the bills and everything because you can go when you want don't have to answer to nobody want to deal with other people but like I said it was not supposed to be a full-time job for your part-time job like on the weekends or whatever just to make ends meet so I'm making my ends meet it's just extra income
I do it for the adrenaline rush of walking through an apartment complex with no lights at 1am in a city with a crime rate higher than a drug dealer's last smoke session 😂😂😂😂
Everyone's definition of a "fair wage" is different. Just bc you wouldn't work for X dollars doesn't mean someone else wouldn't. You'd be an asshole to force a business to close when the employee wants to work there and is content with their wage. You may think you're helping, but you're actually hurting people and preventing them from earning any money at all, and their children might end to starving bc of your entitled mindset
You're absolutely correct about the No Overtime. The only way to make good money in food delivery is putting in a LOT of hours and by looking at the income at a weekly or even monthly scale. The income is very inconsistent even with long 12+ hour shifts.
Still better than working at Speedway. We do 5 jobs at once (Stocker, cashier, dishwasher, janitor, cook), don't get breaks or even sit down time, never have more than 2 people working at a time and for 2nd shift I'm alone the last 3 hours (it still is busy as hell every day 7pm-10pm), usually I get two 10 hour shifts a week (noon-10pm) and they even went as far as to change the beginning day of the week on a schedule to stop me from getting overtime. It used to be Monday-Sunday. Now it's Thursday-Wednesday. We also cannot stay clocked in past our scheduled times to get unfinished tasks done (there are so many its rare they will be all done especially if you have a nonstop flow of customers), but if they aren't done you get written up the next day and yelled at about it. All for $12 an hour. And while most of this sounds illegal what I was told is that gas station laws are different. And I believe that because oil companies make and break whatever laws they want and the government submits to them.
Whoever's reading this, I pray that whatever you're going though gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day 💗
@@DefinitelyNotAFerret tipping is far different in food delivery services then in restaurants, etc. 25% tip could be 0.75 cents for me or $9. Even if you lived in the same neighborhood and ordered the food at the same time. You need to tip based on the time of day it is, traffic conditions as well as how far the restaurant is from your house.. You cannot just flat out tip 25%. Also You need to put the price of gas into consideration because you would be doing all of this work yourself if not for the person delivering your food. The restaurant has all of the infrastructure built in already.

#4: wear and tear on your vehicle!
Being a mobile mechanic, if your car is a point a to b please dont do this kind of work unless you can do your own repairs yourself. From my experience, most of my customers who do these delivery jobs like this live in apartment complexes that do not allow for me to fix their cars in their lots. So that forces me to try to make deals with their apartment managers, yes I take that role on even though it's technically not my problem, to get a job done in a certain amount of time(max 4hrs-they needed a new motor and I had 4 hrs to remove their blown motor and install the new one*managed to get it done in 4hrs and 7mins* and the apartment complex had already called a tow truck to tow my customers car, she drove away in her car as the tow truck was pulling into the complex). Or if you have a mechanic that offers it, they pull up and load your car onto a car hauler and take it down the street, off the complex property, to fix your car(this does cost more because of the time it takes to bring a trailer, load your car on it and go to a close secondary location to fix said vehicle). Please if you do this kind of job, keep this in mind!!!!
If you fix your car it comes in business expenses and tax deductible... If you don't know something better to let it go

I am from Australia, I never order UberEats, Deliveroo, Doordash or Menulog coz I am being charged more (it's cheaper to directly order exact same thing from the exact same restaurant), the restaurant is unhappy because these companies are taking 30-40% commission from restaurants (results in lower quality and quantity food) ,, food takes ages to arrive and is cold when it's delivered, lastly the guy/girl who delivered is earning less than 1/2 the minimum hourly wage. They appear so frustrated that they are probably spitting in the food. So stop being lazy, support your local business and walk to pick up your food. You save money, restaurant is making more money and it's a healthier lifestyle than picking up your spat on food from the door !!!

@@Shifudragonturtle don’t worry about it that probably happens to everybody.

The tipping culture in the US is absurd. Why should a delivery driver be reliant on tips? They do nothing beyond the job description to earn a tip. The company needs to pay you guys more, calculating tips as part of your income is seriously fucked up. Why should a customer who is already paying more for delivery also be expected to tip? Am I supposed to tip the UPS or FedEx drivers too?
I mean- Technically, you can pay a monthly fee to have the delivery fee deleted and a discount on the fees in general, like with doordash. So, you actually don't pay much at all in delivery this way since you make your money back in 3 deliveries.
They have to redo the entirety of the service to bypass them making enough money to be a service. Not sure how they'd do properly without charging even more money to compensate for livable wages.
Then the fees are incredibly more expensive bc the company now has to pay the driver a livable wage. More than likely the fees would then double if not triple
You’re clueless, but I’m pretty sure you already know that. No tip, watch the food flip!
@@nala3038 Nala, you're clueless. You think its okay to feel entitled to tips which encourages companies jot to pay you enough
The issue is you're acting like you're someone who cares about working people having a basic standard of living when in reality you just want a pizza, you're too lazy to get it yourself, and too poor to pay a decent amount for it.
Tip or don't tip, but don't act like stiffing your driver is some pro labor rights stance when it's just you being cheap. Because at the end of the day the companies aren't going to pay a livable wage just because you refuse to pay an extra $3 for your meal that you were fine paying $40 for. You want to take a stance against the greedy, billionaire owning/ruling class? You don't do it by screwing over the full time workers you depend on for food.
I want to make a parody video called what delivery drivers think the world is like. And then walk into a restaurant and hand the waitress a tip before I even sit down lol.

You may think you're helping, but you're actually hurting people and preventing them from earning any money at all, and their children might end to starving bc of your entitled mindset
@scratchNsniff no delivery apps are to print money for the company and to pay the employee as little as possible get the boot out of your mouth
@@scratchnsniff8487 you must be crazy. The mileage and wear on my car to travel so many distance I don't need pocket money.
If the employees didn’t think they received a fair wage then the business literally wouldn’t exist.
@SimonSays314 People have no other options sometimes. If that were true child labor wouldnt be a thing
You're absolutely correct about the No Overtime. The only way to make good money in food delivery is putting in a LOT of hours and by looking at the income at a weekly or even monthly scale.
The income is very inconsistent even with long 12+ hour shifts.
Video edit is preaching solid! Btw I guess you are in Seattle 😂
"area with bad tippers" lol I see what you did there

@@TheBRYANAWSOME no way 🤣
What did he do there? Say something true? Or did you assume something ignorant based off of your own perception?
@@SeverSFSs yes black people are well known for being exceptional tippers ...😑

4) No benefits
5) Must pay for your own car maintenance and gas
6) Orders can be sporadic and no money is made waiting for orders
7) maybe try an actual job if it's so hard
Bicycles don't exist I guess
Still better than working at Speedway. We do 5 jobs at once (Stocker, cashier, dishwasher, janitor, cook), don't get breaks or even sit down time, never have more than 2 people working at a time and for 2nd shift I'm alone the last 3 hours (it still is busy as hell every day 7pm-10pm), usually I get two 10 hour shifts a week (noon-10pm) and they even went as far as to change the beginning day of the week on a schedule to stop me from getting overtime. It used to be Monday-Sunday. Now it's Thursday-Wednesday. We also cannot stay clocked in past our scheduled times to get unfinished tasks done (there are so many its rare they will be all done especially if you have a nonstop flow of customers), but if they aren't done you get written up the next day and yelled at about it. All for $12 an hour.
And while most of this sounds illegal what I was told is that gas station laws are different. And I believe that because oil companies make and break whatever laws they want and the government submits to them.
Same with Instacart ! Especially the second reason !!!
When I became an independent contractor I was told I would have to pay my taxes quarterly, which I thought meant every 25 years.
Lol

Please people go pick up your bs food getting lazier and lazier 🤦♂️ if you want delivery tip your guy/girl good
Or TIP
Parents raised me to tip 25% 💃🏼
Love how u ppl view the world from ur pov
@@shegotadonk the word you're looking for is "perspective."
What a concept ikr. 😱 Omg omg SUS
@@DefinitelyNotAFerret tipping is far different in food delivery services then in restaurants, etc. 25% tip could be 0.75 cents for me or $9. Even if you lived in the same neighborhood and ordered the food at the same time. You need to tip based on the time of day it is, traffic conditions as well as how far the restaurant is from your house.. You cannot just flat out tip 25%. Also You need to put the price of gas into consideration because you would be doing all of this work yourself if not for the person delivering your food. The restaurant has all of the infrastructure built in already.
I did Door dash 2020 may til early Oct put 15k Miles on my car , never made more than $100 working 5pm-10 minus gas ,depreciation on my car minus taxes it’s just not worth it.
But what if you multi app?
@@Kristine14 it’s the mileage and gas forget about it , def not worth it
Type of car you drive? Year make and model? How much do you spend on regular maintenance every 6/12 months? Gas expenses on a weekly basis? Thanks!
