@@tbnewhomes Thank you! In my area you can do Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods and Bristol Farms! Russ

Thank you so much Tara!!! I hope all people can watch it to the end because customers are not bad people. I love sharing my findings about driver pay and the ending likely will surprise many. Russ

@@AF-sx1zu Thank you for sharing this. What trends have you noticed in your satisfaction rate if any? Russ

@TheRussRyde nothing along those trends. Mine has been at 99% for a long time. I only do this in the winter months. I just keep my head down and keep it as professional as I can. I wouldn't recommend sending messages to people. They can track you already. It can seem creepy to some people.

@@AF-sx1zu It's interesting because maybe only 1 person has rated you or maybe 100 and you won't know until you get a bad review to take you below 100....or 99% in your case. Thank you for sharing this!

It's just business

@@LindaLF2582 Hi Linda, I wish I would get more catering orders but that was it! How about you? Russ

Thank you for watching the video! Russ

@@NeonN3mesis Right on!!! Thank you. Russ

@@souljaboy1416 You make excellent points. Good job on your own business too. Thank you for sharing your insights as all drivers benefit. Russ

Watch the video again. Pay is what matters. Russ

You are onto something with all the fees. Surely there is enough to pay the driver fairly for the trip. Mmmm where is all that money going? Pay is what matters, not the tip. Russ

Tipping isn’t the issue, pay is. Russ

Well said! As far as the tips over $8, you do get the entire tip but they only let you know about the first $8 when you see the offer. So you could have a $10 order really be $20 but not realize it. Russ

I thought I covered that in the video! Russ

@ You can’t cover it by blaming the customer.

That is an excellent way to quickly know if an order is good or not. Then through further experience you'll know if traffic is an issue or not or parking etc. Way to go! Russ

Wow, that is hard to believe the driver wouldn't be so happy for a $21 tip! A $5 tip is exceptional for me. In general a "good" order on Instacart is $1 per item in total pay (what the app pays and a tip). You could argue the same for the other apps too. Russ

Dara needs to recognize my performance!

@TheRussRyde daddy look I so guuud They don't care about you Just like amazon just like any other billion dollar corporation If your government doesn't make them care Going on the Internet and crying to 300 people for attention is not gonna fix them nor will it fix your daddy issues

@@tr5946 I thought I adequately addressed that in the video…. Russ

@@tonyLA24 Have you considered the effort that one of those workers took to package your food instead of waiting on a table where there is a likely tip? I hear you though. Especially here in CA where fast food makes $20 per hour. Russ

@ yeah well at some point they have to actually do a job. They aren’t paid to stand around. With takeout the difference is the cooks place the food in containers instead of plates. Delivery drivers don’t get paid when they are waiting. A good waiter will be attentive to a customers needs. I’ve worked service jobs the kitchen, and as a cashier. I never got a tip. My wife works as a nurse, she gets no tips either.

@@tonyLA24 Well said!

Yeah! I thrive on work. Even better is to enjoy the process. Yes it would be nice to UberEats to pay more. Russ

We all have to work until we die so why not enjoy and make the most of it. Thank you for noticing! I do have a bad attitude for a little bit though. Russ

"living wage" is THE DUMBEST TERM EVER. Tell me, what is a LIVING WAGE. That can be different for EVERYONE. Stop using that stupid fucking term

If everyone got paid this "living wage" The amount of every single product would skyrocket. Learn some economics dumbass

That’s the tough part about capitalism. The market decides but the constant influx of new drivers enables UberEats (and the other gig apps) to pay $2. Russ

Thing is uber eats and all gig work classes you as an independent contractor where they dictate your rate. And since the driver clicked agree on the documents to sign up, you’ve agreed to these terms. Best bet, go and start your own delivery service for people and cut out the middle man of uber, doordash or grubhub. Same with ride share, just follow all local licensing.

Great points! I am still grateful for the chance to work on the various apps but yes, it is demoralizing knowing that I "agreed" to their terms. Russ

@@zoemcfadden4004 Yes, thank you for sharing this option. I’m glad that it wasn’t get a real job but a different one. Ha! I do appreciate you for your feedback and learning from the video. Russ

@@TopDawgSales That is so encouraging to hear. Thank you on behalf of all drivers! Russ

@@LoLolo-l9d Yes, and taxes of course. The IRS mileage rate is specific on what goes into that calculation…. Russ

I’ll believe it when I see it! I am grateful for any pay raise. Russ

Thank you. I will keep persevering. Russ

I wouldn't use it myself. People might think you have a firearm and it's a red dot sight. Russ

@@TheRussRyde I may use it since I carry on job

@@JohnConnors-d2s I see! It's a reliable camera and I am mostly now using it for my deliveries. Russ

@@deliveringwithellen Thank you Ellen! I also feel a little displeased when discovering a no tip order. But I do blame the gig app for not paying a proper amount for us to delivering. I know it’s an endless cycle but I try to make the best of each order and smile and be helpful. I love it when I get a $15 tip! Russ

@@Twinsen764 I am glad to hear that. Customers that tip make a big difference in our pay even though they may not realize it. Thank you for sharing this! It helps all drivers get a feel for tipping in different markets. Russ

Yes it is! It turns out when I did the experiment for a second time it too the correct 100 orders to go from 99 to 100% for the acceptance rate. Russ

Hi John, I won't make a video on it but page 19 of the Boblov M5 user manuel tells you how to operate the police lights and siren. You have to be in standby mode, meaning not recording. You short press the PTT button and the lights and siren come on. Short press the PTT again to turn off the alarm and short press again to turn off the lights. I hope this is helpful. Russ

And also phone not in stealth mode. Thanks

@@billyom1224 I know it is true. I’ve talked with the owner of a local pho restaurant and he’s told me what they charge him. And then I’ve also heard it from other sources online. So based on your confirmation as well, I know it’s true.. Thank you for confirming this! How are orders in your area? Do you also get a lot of prop 22? Russ

@TheRussRyde is doing well so far 🤠

@@billyom1224 That is great to hear!

Me too! It can only help UberEats drivers . Thank you!

@@MAJOYDACIA Thank you Majoy! I love keeping people informed.

You are a true professional!

Thank you Marie, it’s good for drivers to know what they want to do or not. The food news is you can turn off the shop and pay orders in the app account settings. Russ

@@mariesaint-falin9018 In the account settings you can turn off shop and pay orders. You have to apply to do rides so that isn’t an issue. Russ

@@mariesaint-falin9018 Thank you Marie!

I also think low item count is generally the best way to go. The more items the more time it takes to reach the customer and they aren’t always readily available. Russ

@@excellentmike In this case you would have to pay close attention to the follow on offers and quickly know if they are a good order or not. I would say newer drivers can’t do this given the info in this video. Thank you for making me think about this! Russ

Glad I'm not the only one that doesn't understand this logic. Lmao. Most of my "batch" orders are always good so why would I not want to see them by making myself unavailable lol. When I can just decline those orders if they end up being bad anyways .. is this guy high or just low IQ ..

I hope not to either!

@@davidellis7786 No, think of it as telling UberEats to put you offline after you finish the current order(s). I hope this clarifies it better! Russ

@TheRussRyde thank u so much, I cancelled order yesterday I thought I lost it,

@ If the app glitches which sometimes happens close the app and start it again and wait a minute or so for it to pop back up. This has happened to me on GrubHub a couple of times.

How so? Russ

@ I’m looking at the batches right now and they are offering $4.39 to shop 20 items and deliver to an address 3 miles away which doesn’t include milage to the store. $11 batch with a boost and you have to pick up 21 bags and deliver to 2 different locations 3.5 miles from store. $27 batch to shop 37 products and 59 items and deliver to 3 different addresses 7 miles from store. $50 shop 33 items which includes several cases of water to be delivered 25 miles away. $9.50 batch to pickup 12 bags( single bag could be 1 bag or several packages of water bottles and deliver one mile away, which is the best batch in my list. I took a batch that paid $10 to deliver 1 bag to an address 4 miles away and when I got to the store they tried to have me deliver ten cases of water bottles. It all a scam. Customer don’t tip or tip properly because they assume we are on salary or paid by the hour by instacart.

@ did you really erase my reply?

@@irfanfarid No, sometimes UA-cam holds comments and I don’t see them on my phone. I’ll go look for it.

Wow! These are terrible orders. I recommend all shoppers only do orders that are $1 per item (not units) and low miles. Sadly naive drivers accept terrible orders and reinforce poor customer behavior. It sounds like you are in a market where you can deliver Instacart bags that other people have shopped for you. That would be a different method I haven’t thought about before to decide what is worthwhile. Definitely how many miles and how long it would take. Thank you for sharing this! Russ

@@cliffcox7643 Yes it is an exceedingly helpful tool! Thank you ! Russ

Many aren’t worth your time today but I just try to be carful and only pick the ones that are. It is frustrating because I’m out trying to make money. Thank you! Russ

Your videos are entertaining I will continue to watch them.

@ Thanks so much! I appreciate hearing that. Russ

@@vladyslav743 True. Thank you for calling this out. It’s demoralizing to want to work and be ready to work but not get many orders. In that case do sign up for other companies so you can multi-app and hope that there will be enough orders overall to keep you profitable. Russ

@TheRussRyde thanks!

I think CA already got involved with Prop 22 which was heavily funded by these companies. Russ

This needs to happen because this is supposed to be contract work & not judgement

@ And yes, it is FAR from the contract work that it should be. I hear you. Russ

@ there need to be some advocacy & it needs to go across all these food platforms! But yes I agree it’s nothing like it used to be!

@@JOHNDANIELS254 Yes! This is the key to relationships and serving the customer. If we do our jobs so well the customer has great experience and is fully satisfied. Thank you John!
