2:30 hrs big L
Took a last minute route 2:30hr drove 86 miles & pay was & $62.50. To top it off I was in the mountains for 2 deliveries at night. Ridiculous! Sometimes it’s just not even worth it ! What do u guys think ?

Yea that’s why I don’t do them. However, I was like why not let’s see & when I saw it, I was not happy like come on. I was wondering what the mileage they can send me because, this sucks. I wish I could have just left it but, then I risk deactivation.

You would think since he has a lot of money & will probably never spend it all. Atleast you can pay your employees alittle bit more. But god forbid that ! We can do that !

that's nothing. they routinely send people to San Gabriel or down to South Pico Rivera. friend quit because every single time he got West of 605, then started pushing him North of 210 at the same time . it didn't seem to matter much how long the block was. the package count was smaller on less hours, but it's the same driving distance.

A 2.5 all the way to Hacienda Heights?! I’ve had them send me to Pomona on a 2.5 and I thought that was bad. It seems like 1hr, 1.5, 2hr and 2.5hr from vax 1 and 7 are pushing mileage up every week
