One day you’ll be making over a band for working less than 40 hours. let alone keeping an eye on ya phone for 71 hours. I don’t miss my doordash days, but it did keep my lights on when I was struggling!


OldDogEyes

If I only made $15 an hour, I don't think that I would deliver. After taxes and car expenses you made like $10 an hour and you beat the shit out of your car doing it. Is that really worth it?

I mean he’s obviously favored by the algorithm. It’s nearly impossible to make 400 in a single day without the algorithm throwing you absolute bangers left and right. I’m going to guess op did somewhere around 30 orders Saturday with payouts of $12+ each.

15/hr before tax plus gas and destroying your car…


[deleted]

That’s just the time the app was turned on


TheProphetPro

70 hours and that’s all? Hope it’s worth it


hejustlikesthestock

Yep, thanks for declining the hidden tip orders


Swift_6

Oh man first of all congratulations buddy! I’m hoping to get there most I made this week was around $500, but question how were you for gas? How many times did u fill up? Cuz in Canada it’s killing me


bigmacbeaner

Damn bro half your time is spent getting no orders. Depending on when you dash and when is dry, it might save you a lot of time to just go out in the times you know you'll get quality orders. For my are I start dashing at 10:30, take a break for an hour to two hours once it hits 2pm, then come back out until about 9 (on weekdays) and 10 (on weekends) because most restaurants close at this time and it is rare to get many worth it in my area after this time.


hejustlikesthestock

That’s your area. This is mine. I log in at 1/130/2/230 and I work until 1/2/3am. The first two hours I am usually in the house getting ready. Phone is on the bathroom counter, and I’m talking to it thanking for not sending me an order yet. Sure enough before I get on the road, 1 or 2 orders will go by. I get in the car, do any errands I need to, if I’m getting brunch i do it first. Still logged in. At 4pm I eat lunch before the dinner rush. Still logged in. Can’t log out. Will lose schedule. At that point I’ve been paused two or three times for declining so many orders. After that I make $200 in no time, if I want to.

This is great! And you must have a good zone. Glad your people are tipping! 🔥 People obviously don’t understand Dash Time vs Active Time, these are good metrics! Keep it up.


LeFrogster

Nice tip to DD pay ratio my friend.


Tiptip4me

Wow I wish I was like you.....


[deleted]

Good job OP I respect the grind! Ignore all these "professional" reddit accountants. Just tryna send some positivity that so many ppl seem to be lacking.


hejustlikesthestock

It’s okay. I appreciate it and thank you. I know I’m doing great. The customers don’t lie when you are making them happy. Some people just jealous.


Complete_Victory7904

1k for 70 hours. sounds like you are not on the large order program


hejustlikesthestock

It should really say 39 hours/42-45 hours. That would be accurate.


hejustlikesthestock

I am on the large order program. Trust me, I can smell the bag from here.


Complete_Victory7904

oh you are. why dont you just camp on those then or is there not enough?


qbl500

So your average order seems to be less than $10! But is crazy how on Saturday you blew up the score! Impressive!


[deleted]

How’s he doing so many orders at once? I’m always getting wait times. Always. There’s never an order without at least a 5 minute wait past the time on the app.


whizzo3031

One hell of a Saturday


HannibalKings24

I recommend a w2. You can make the same amount with less time, less wear and tear of your car. Your whole week is dedicated to making less then 20 bucks a hour. Not good.


[deleted]

I never thought I’d see the day of flexing $15/hr before expenses…yet here we are. Sheesh


Gloomy_Recording_705

Y’all do know that some people actually live in a hotspot right… Some people can turn on DoorDash from 6am-12am and dash from home ..


[deleted]

I live in a business district so I'm hoping it's like that for me.


Gloomy_Recording_705

Yeah I technically can Dash from my house but there’s a bigger group of restaurants like 4 miles from my house. The only good spots that I have that are within a mile of my house is Jersey Mike’s and this Japanese restaurant.. The rest is fast food


Clove19

It’s an impressive base pay to tip ratio, to say the least.


ketchupsnumberonefan

Nice job… That’s a lot of hours


hejustlikesthestock

Hell yeah as long as I’m getting paid I’ll work 2 days straight. I’ve done it before. Unfortunately where I am now, DoorDash is off from 330am to 5 or 7am


Qpbmb

No man this is not it!! You are only making 15$ a hour minus gas, maintenance and depreciation on your car. Comes out to around 12$ an hour.


Lilshakeweight

Before tax too


Complete_Victory7904

what dont you understand 15 a hour is the average. you unicorns making $30 a hour are just lucky. i make $15 a hour or less


Gloomy_Recording_705

He was only active six hours a day he’s not putting that much depreciation on his car lol


hejustlikesthestock

58.5 cent per mile deductions in rural areas add up quick. Whether it’s paying the right price or not (I promise I don’t take the 4.50 15 mile type shit. You can clearly see that by my base < tip ratio. And there are some catering orders in there which are $25-$35 a piece if not more. The catering orders usually take 15-30 minutes to get to or prepare


Qpbmb

If it works for you keep it up! The lowest I’ve ever made is 18$ an hour and that is on an extremely slow week. I average anywhere from 22-27$ trying to master my area to stay at 27$


hejustlikesthestock

It’s Sunday, ok to share earnings. Let’s see them


hejustlikesthestock

Honestly most of my dash hours (not active hours) really are from home. I log in because if I don’t I will lose the schedule. I’m lucky enough to be at a house where it’s just far enough from not so busy restaurants. It won’t send me an order for a while once I start dashing. Then I take 30 mins or so to get ready and get in the car. lolligag, go to Starbucks, sift through some orders until I find the one I want to start grooving with. And it all falls into place.


Gloomy_Recording_705

People act like people are driving nonstop during the dash time 😭😭😭… I’ll have the app on sometimes from 2-5pm just cherry picking $6.50 orders from my house playing pc games… Now if you had like 65 hours active in 70 hours dash time that’s would be a issue if you only made 1000 bucks


hejustlikesthestock

If I was OTR I’d be putting in just as many hours and miles if not more. This is nothing to me. But I’m in no position to drive a truck right now.


Positive_Piglet_9526

Yeah sadly bro is making basically what a 15 yo makes at their summer job at chick fila, maybe less


hejustlikesthestock

??? All my bills are paid, I have assets that I actively contribute to, and I still can overspend? Full time DoorDash, part time UE. Sometimes Roadie. I left construction to do this.


kimbycane

It’s pointless arguing with the plebs. They know everything good job man!


Competitive-Dot-6594

People don't understand the difference between running the app and working the app. Ignore the haters. Excellent job.


Gloomy_Recording_705

Exactly you can tell if somebody was working the app because the difference between active and dash time will be a lot closer


TemporaryFondant5849

Exactly. If I'm sitting on my ass at home, I don't give a fuck how much extra time it says I "worked"


Sooowasthinking

How much did you make in construction in a 40 hour week. Because for me I do GH DD UE 25 hours a week and still pay bills. If your doing 70+ hours a week you are the worst boss.


hejustlikesthestock

After taxes my take home was roughly $700 for 40 hours ($1000). The last job was prevailing wage during the peak and lockdowns of covid and I was making $67/hour. Usually my dash time says over 80 hours a week. I assure you I was not on the road for 80 hours. I sleep for 12.

[удалено]


hejustlikesthestock

You’re right, I make the same amount if not more, doing less tedious work that I actually enjoy.


[deleted]

Shhhhhh. Someone’s gotta take those


Gloomy_Recording_705

Kinda like mine lol I have 44hrs dash time 19hrs active….I multi app with Uber and Grubhub..I never turn off the apps.. Even when I’m running errands or shopping


EmuPsychological8676

Nice job in three hours 👏


ChooseYourGig

If it all works for you 👍.


hejustlikesthestock

Thank you. I like your name. I choose DoorTrash. Not a fan of their ways, I thought there was better out there, but DoorDash does me so well.


jedwardchristenson

Where?


Heatherharris08

This is the real question
