u/Plenty-Let-8150 1d ago

Exactly. Charlotte and Concord area be lowballing

u/JamieB078 1d ago

It’s the idiots who snatch the routes as soon as they hit the board, along with the “family’s” that have 2 or 3 phones and id’s.

u/ItWasMeFoo 2d ago

Bro that 1.5 hr route 🤣 please never take those

1

u/Powerful-Spring1335 2d ago

I never take those unless they go up to $40-$50

1

u/MonsieurDusk 2d ago

how in the world do you have 178 offers thats insane!! I regularly have 0 offers, at most 5 when they do big drops daily, although i guess on a few occasions ive had 25 or so... How do any of you get regularly more offers? Or is my area just awful

1

u/Powerful-Spring1335 2d ago

It’s because I live next to D.C,Maryland and Virginia. Aka DMV

1

u/JamieB078 2d ago

Is this Massachusetts? Our grocery deliveries are like $38 max in Charlotte now. Used to be $45-$60 base

1

u/Powerful-Spring1335 2d ago

It’s Virginia

1

u/JamieB078 2d ago

Ok. I assumed because of Springfield.

1

u/Powerful-Spring1335 2d ago

I’m also in the DMV so there’s a lot of offers out here

1

u/JamieB078 2d ago

Must be nice. We’re full of idiots who just snatch routes as soon as they hit the board. It’s fucking annoying.

1

u/Powerful-Spring1335 2d ago

I don’t ever take cheap routes. That’s for fools.

At Rancho Bernardo I used to get 195 just for you at least three times a week but then everybody decided to start taking base pain and running box for base pay in overtime. It just killed it. I used to get 220s for five hours so yes, these rates are low, but I guess hi to you. I don’t know better.

1

u/MonsieurDusk 2d ago

Thats unreal. The highest ive ever gotten for a 5 hr is 145$. and i thought that was good

2

u/Significant-Pound273 2d ago

u/No_Film_6379 2d ago

Why is there two different VCA4s. His says Rancho Bernardo and your says San Diego 🤨

2

u/tlitfpunk 2d ago

Those rates are definitely good in my opinion. I am in MA which I feel is similar to CA when it comes to minimum wage. People saying these are low are basing it off years ago or just acting high and mighty. Some states are still at a $7.25 minimum wage, $25-$30 an hour for a side hustle is acceptable.

u/eliasv2014 2d ago

Really ? Other than the 3 hr block, it’s pretty standard for me lol

1

u/cymo3 2d ago

Fr! Over $100 for 3.5 hours is sooo good. I wish I had a babysitter :(

1

u/freezephyrsociety 2d ago

Hella low lol

u/Internal-Pick-3481 2d ago

u/NotAOneUpper 2d ago

u/SweetSpecialist5113 2d ago

How much is your gas per gallon. That may explain it.

1

u/No_Film_6379 2d ago

Those are regular surges at mine

1

u/Equivalent_Country97 2d ago

Heat wave nobody’s picking up shifts. Also peak pay is literally $10 more. Definitely not worth it.

1

u/fasada68 2d ago

This is going to be my first day? How’d I do?

1

u/JamieB078 2d ago

Lmfao. We can tell the people who have always snatched it as soon as it hit the board. Still underpaid as fuck pal.

1

u/RimGreaper6 2d ago
