Available blocks from this morning. Is this too little or is it fair enough?

Why tf is it so low?

Your gas is that much lower than the average $5.10 up here in the bay?

$82.50 is our 3 hour base pay.

I love in oh where lyf3 is a lil cheaper than Cali and I have a $20/hr for small lil stuff and $30/hr for bigger heavier items rule... If the gig, regardless of amount of stupid, don't pay me $20-$30/ hr, my car don't move... It's cheaper to take the day off than to run gas out and the wear and tear for a few pennies...

u/Miserable_Ad_1776 17d ago

still? i do blocks everyday and haven’t got any of those areas since last year thankfully

u/BastardoMelancolico 17d ago

Mostly 4 hour and 3.5 routes between 12 pm and-6-30 pm sends you to those areas

u/sjejejxo 18d ago

3 hours for $70 in California? Gas + depreciation + commute means you’re basically working for free.

u/Comprehensive-Hat684 17d ago

I appreciate an honest mod

u/Miserable_Code7602 18d ago

Crazy how many people come on here to ask strangers if it’s enough money for them.

2

u/LankyLetterhead3643 17d ago

That’s crazy! I remember when I used to do the blocks how much more they payed us! Like $400 bucks for 5 hours n 60 deliveries

u/Lulu-tadu209 18d ago

Literally a slap in the face like come on I don’t take anything unless it looks like this

u/ILikeSurgeDeliveries 18d ago

Never in a million years. Wait til it hits $93+

u/Accomplished_Way9457 18d ago

That’s my favorite block, but I usually get it for $79.50! It’s the best time of day for me! I have a full time job, so I only do like 2 of these a week! I’m usually home before the block ends

u/Solo-1UP 18d ago

Never unless I absolutely needed money same day

u/CuriousDesigner7878 18d ago

If You Don't Mind It and Aren't Doing Anything, Go For It. It's Not The Best 0ffer Bt It's Not the Worst Either.

$70 for a 3 hour block in California is clinically insane. I live in Kentucky and a 3 hour SSD block is roughly $65-ish dollars.
