  • A year and a half ago I quit my job to do Uber Eats full time and recently started using DoorDash simultaneously and have had great results making 1k-1.5k per week (3 times what I was previously making). Aside from money I talk about 10 reasons why I jumped ship from a traditional 9-5 job to Independent Contract Work aka UberEats and DoorDash bike deliveries. Subscribe for more videos like this!

    Listen everyone, dont go quitting your day job if you're going to single app or if you're broke and cant keep up the bills. You do this gig job for extra earnings. If you're finances are in order and having a varyin income is fine, then you can do this gig full time.
    But dont expect it to be sunshine and rainbows all the time. You're gonna be tired, annoyed, and treated like shit by customers and resteraunts. You have to have self motivation. If you want a quick buck, just do it casually not full time. If you're serious, you nee to be willing to work 40+hrs a week rain or heat. Cant be taking weeks off at a time cause the weather is not your suit.
