    My nephew drives for Uber Eats. He can make his rent in a few days work, but he says he has to be smart about which fares he accepts.

    Yes barely earn much after expenses. Harassment is crazy haven't had issue with that. Never heard of them reporting if you turned down offers. I guess it could happen. It's tough out here.

    I've thought about doing that on the side. I have a full-time job already, so with the limited time I'd have available to do delivery, I'm not sure how much extra I'd bring in and if it would be worth it.

    if you are driving someone they can report you for anything and get you disabled until you call up the next day.

    if you want to make okay decent money on the side, get a cleaning job.
    I had a job where i just did the floors at an oceanspray. i was the only guy that came in every day and they loved me. i would drive from my regular job and work 4-8pm and go home.

    i had a lot of extra money and i could get new tires or go out and party with no issue.

    you can also work at amazon and work a minimum of 20 hrs a month. it's very physical work and it's not for everyone. you also have to have an eye for detail for catching mistakes.

    another thing i did on the side where i go my coworkers involved was we had a parttime job at dayton freight loading up trucks. it was fun working with people i already knew.

    Let me help you with that: No, it's not worth it. :-)

    I did a little "HelloTech" work while between jobs a few years ago and it was definitely not worth it (financially speaking). If you're just bored and want to meet new and irritating people, however, go for it!

    yeah but you are missing out from making money on that one day. and it might be a hot night. you have to wait until the next day to get the ban lifted.

    treat it like a job. go to airports and wait. when there's a music event in your area park outside it. do some research and be in the right place at the right time. but i would just get a regular job because there's more jobs than people right now.

    Been really slow, less pay from Door Dash. They make all the money. Maybe it will pick up soon. I've made $10.hr to $25.hr, not include ay gas. Depends on the market in your area. Small town here.

    Oh delievering people. My vehicle is not new enough to do that. So I havent tried that. Just Food for Door Dash, Uber, Spark, and Grubhub. I'm on all four. Door Dash the busiest in my area but low pay. With gas to buy it's hard to make it. You can do good one day, terrible the next.

    When i needed tires or anything, i had the money.

    Yes. if you have extra time on your hands to make a food run, it's money in y our pocket. I worked on a project at a hospital in the middle of a busy
    area, and one of our contractors on the team would stay around in the area after work to deliver food. Aperson trying to make more than pocket change will be more aggressive regarding choosing as many fares as possible.

    I'm not aware of there are any penalties if a order pickup of fare is turned down. I know a few retired folks who pick up and run passengers to the airport, and give rides to and from work because they have the time.

    I live in the middle of nowhere, fairly equidistant between four towns. I would lose money because I do not get paid for the trip to the customer, or th e trip home. These gigs work best if you live a few minutes away from downtown.

    people can sue you for anything, too.

    i had a friend who had a pool business. this lady sued him claiming he was supposed to put up a deck. he said in court his business is "steve's pool service" not steve's deck building. he still lost.
