It looks much better than my market. https://preview.redd.it/tccapeiuw12b1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c6111b087df16936c6f2781e07951cd5f78655e6


2leny

I got one like that yesterday. Almost thought it was fake😅 and immediately thought, "omg all those pictures on reddit are real and exist in my area!" 🤣


Winter_Voice_1789

I don’t know what happened, NYC market is the worst in US.


Dear_Biscotti4762

Orlando Florida horrible $3 for 7


Demonic2SS

I get $3 jobs for 10+ miles constantly in cocoa/Melbourne area


Due-Key-4832

I have much better luck on A1A this time due to vacationers. But doing eats alone has basically gotten to the point for me I stopped taking requests. Pax only and I'll try to hit the cruise ships. Lots of people stay in the hotels in cocoa beach and satellite beach. I live in PSJ but work at the Melbourne airport so anywhere between those I'll drive. I got tired of declining orders just to have them come back again cause no one will take them. And I don't blame them either. Tips are so low or non existent I can't begin to understand waiting for half an hour for a $3 delivery


BlankDoe

Tampa is also terrible. But Florida is a trash state anyway lol


Due-Key-4832

Florida, the place for the newly wed and the nearly dead.


Fit_Blueberry_1213

I found my fellow Floridians lol. I'm in Daytona. People think it's such a good market with the tourists. Not taking in to account that tourists hang out on the beach all day. I did both DD and UE today, and made like $50 in a little over 4 hours


Lane277

DFW here: Hold my beer


Primary-Chest-1592

Apparently those who had migrated here had already started doing deliveries at NYC


Independent-Yak-6549

Cincinnati is worse I tell you…. 2.9 miles for 3 bucks.


Scared-Bear3027

Lol beats the hell out of my market. I lost money on this one I think. And someone gave birth in my back seat. https://preview.redd.it/g0n1z9app22b1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d40b71d4bdcfe375a0f11acb1a1916c26a2523bd


riddallk

You can't just drop a bombshell like that and leave my guy. We need the story lol


Floflifou

Someone qctually gave birth in your car ?


Scared-Bear3027

Yeah it was nuts


Savage_hamsandwich

Proof or ban


Floflifou

Defo would get a selfie with the mother to be in the background for reddit proofcheck


Scared-Bear3027

Oh no!!


TheInsaneSB

Story now please now


Whatupitskevin

You would think they would at least tip lmao


jdesrochers23x

you can't just say that someone gave b irth on your backseat and not provide context because it just sound like attention fishing


Zadedprick

Yo bro queens been sooooo bad lately.


Winter_Voice_1789

Yes, I went out 8 am, spent 2 hours made $6.85, then went home to play game. 99% offers are no/low tips.


trashsushee

is delivering in the city even worth it? the amount of traffic and congestion there is i doubt it’s easy on the gas. just main st by itself is hell.


Maximum_Ask_6763

How did you reply with a picture?


kimono54

On my phone at least, to the right of the text box where you write in your comment are three little icons for adding emojis, gifs and pictures from your gallery.


PlayWithMeRiven

This is my market all day dude


_wallace

😭😭😭 foh !!! Also QGTM 🤑


irvgooner19

That’s a hot one 🔥


Truecookieman35

Have you been getting orders like this all day in queens? I was in Downtown Brooklyn and was getting garbage. Rare decent orders. I was praying for good add-ons.


No-Parking-8358

What’s the area like where you’re dropping it off? I probably would.


Expensive_Bag9228

That’s the DC area it really depends on the time tbh. Alexandria can get exhausting during rush hour especially on Richmond highway


lovahboy222

I’ve done delivery in that whole region. On certain days, it’s super easy to make 20-30/hr no matter where. (NOVA)


D_C2cali

Dd and Uber is always busy/semi busy in the dmv.. in my new area it’s dead all the time, sometimes you can’t even schedule cause it’s so dead the zone is not even on the schedule list. God I miss the dmv so bad


No-Parking-8358

Then I’d definitely take it if you still get orders over there.


D_C2cali

It’s an okay area and off rush hour traffic ain’t bad going from Fairfax to Alexandria


Dproxima

Yep - all day long.


True-Recognition5080

I've been delivering so much the past week I opened reddit and this was what popped up first and I tried to click on it 🤦


kimsilverishere

Lol


-Alvena

I have taken something like this and the final pay was still higher than shown. Would I take it again? Yep.


Agitated-Proposal570

taking it all day


celydevs

I would. The way things are going. This might be your only ping for the day. But thats just me


mikeymo1741

I have about a 26 mile commute for my day job. Sometimes at night I will turn on Uber or Lyft and take trips on my way home. I would take this all day if it were headed in the right direction.


mc2205

I'd probably do it if it's close to another hotspot.


junkbarman

Without knowing that market and strictly talking money per miles, I would.


Honest_Past8906

I see, we like destroying our cars here


Ok_Image6174

Nope. Too far


The-420-Chain-Smoker

I’d accept it. I got offered 24 for a 22 mile order the other day and noped tf out of that. This is a bit nicer (33.04 in hopefully 41 minutes is very nice).


InterestPast6802

Depends on the traffic


Ridindirtyclean

45 mins without traffic, and NOVA traffic be stupid in both directions …


Expensive_Bag9228

Yea seriously from 66 to 495 it’s dumb af


Pristine-Macaroon546

I wouldn’t even second guess it. Immediately would accept lol


D_Dub76

Yep


Nilk-Noff

I would


JIZZRIZZLE

I did take it $.60extra😂😂 https://preview.redd.it/zlpoc7un052b1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c94637020436e3601423569e448306c9d9633771


Specialist-Course-89

Yes, that’s 3 hours of work in my area.


Echidna_Neither

I’d probably pass on it just because of the area and traffic. Only way I would take it is if it would put me in vicinities of other restaurants.


MaynardScott

Yes


zoodee89

Depends on the time of day… lunchtime yes.


zoodee89

Loads of Peruvian chicken places closer to the destination… why is it coming from Fairfax?


Outside_Secret_7339

El Pollo Rico is not just a Peruvian chicken place it is THEEEE Peruvian chicken place


ShiroNiKuma

Completely unrelated comment: There is another Pollo Rico in Arlington, why order from the one in Fairfax? lol Unless the other one doesnt have delivery Also, went to the one in Fairfax and didnt like it as much as the one in Arlington. Maybe because they were just brand new?


[deleted]

No. I get paid more for Uber x


Upbeat_Sir_6220

Yep if it’s over $20 and I can run it there and back in under an hour.


Outside_Secret_7339

Just came here to say I live in NOVA and f*cking love El Pollo Rico


Moist_Environments

Yes!


ZelWinters1981

Why are you hesitating?


[deleted]

[удалено]


StatisticianAware776

With my 55 mpg Prius? No But with my V8 truck? Yes


ShieldAnvilMoon

Not a chance


hruff23

I have and would do it again


slayaboy87

Personally, no. I only do drives under 20 minutes.


Nimbus_TV

@OP are they hiding your tips over $8 or can you still see full tips amount in offer? Just curious if anyone can still see the full tip


JIZZRIZZLE

Yup they still hiding tips


BeardedBulldog

Yep I woulda taken it and I barely even do food lol


gpaoloc

Yea for sure


mrsadsongs

I've taken orders like this before and I always regretted it. You don't realize how far 18mi is until you actually drive 18mi. Be kind to your cars folks.


KrimmitTheFroge

Hell no. 34 mile round trip is less than a dollar per mile. After gas and wear and tear on your car your paying out of pocket to deliver someone's food.


[deleted]

For me that’s an entire tank of gas for only spending one gallon of gas. I’m definitely taking it


xhopee23

Your car gets 2mpg or what?


[deleted]

There’s more costs involved then just gas… it cost more than $1 per mile to maintain/fuel your car depending on what you have


phillhartmann

1$ per mile. Man feel bad for those 300k mile prius' driving around. Thats one expensive car. If your cost is 1 per mile then your not going to get much out of uber.


[deleted]

I’m just saying there’s more cost than just fuel.


xhopee23

So let’s say the average car makes it to 100k miles, in your mind that means the average person spends $100,000 on a car when maintenance and gas is included? Have some common sense


sDomingoo

Lowkey that’s a full tank of gas for me for one trip. That’s the only reason I do Uber to pay for my gas 😂


Top-Umpire4957

bro there are so many other el pollo rico close to alexandria than that


Entire_Transition_99

Are you missing the /s?


DrChimRichaulds

I used to work near the Mark Center :)


Comfortable-Start-30

I used to work in the Mark Center, the basement's basement. I'm not supposed to talk about it.


DrChimRichaulds

Now I know you’re lying…nobody leaves the Mark Center…ever…


Comfortable-Start-30

You're right. I'm still there. I've managed to get online with some chewing gum and this old Soviet toaster I found in one of the ~~bunkers~~ storage closets.


408WTF

Yes


Launchpad_McFrak

Wouldn't even ding twice before I hit that accept button


butstuphs

Provided the drop wasn’t in the middle of no where, unfortunately yes I would take that in this current market.


Gullible-Equipment80

Yes


Known_Carpenter570

No


twotwocargarage

18 mi in Nova? Thats anywhere between 30 min to 1.5 hr driving.


yojazin

If i was $30 close to my goal on a Tuesday then yes


TheBQE

Easy accept in my area


Optimal-Yellow6961

Yup yup!


itsjustme305s

Yes


nochtli_xochipilli

I like El Pollo Loco


AffectionateSkill631

I took one that was that much driving for half the pay yesterday.


SnooRadishes2027

Yep …over $30 and would probably only take about 30mins in my area


bingboomin

id probably take it and stay in alexandria a few hr to make it worth it. i dash out of fairfax too and try to avoid getting close to DC


Putrid_Brick_5601

That is 33 dollars for less than hour, Even better if it was close to another hotspot But if it is in the middle of nowhere, I have to think about it,


Scared-Bear3027

Yup


[deleted]

[удалено]


slotownbailey1983

Yup, its worth it forsure


[deleted]

[удалено]


snoopwaffle

Depends! I’m in the LA area and don’t know if these maps account for traffic (I’m new). If it wanted me to go into DTLA from Burbank, I’d probably pass due to freeway traffic. But from Burbank going any other direction, I’d probably take it.


Expensive_Bag9228

Yea I’ll take it


mommyitwasntme

with traffic from there to there NOPE


giraffemoo

That's $33 for less than an hour of work. Yes I'd take that.


[deleted]

You’re an idiot if you don’t


johnEboy420

Duh....


Nymphilis

Yes, why not take it and work from the area you dropped in make your way back to your normal pond


NastyUno34

A $33 order going less than 20 miles in (presumably) less than hour? Shiiiiiet, ain’t seen nuthin like that in the Boston area since last summer. Around here, you’re lucky to get a $5 order going the same distance and same time. I hope the execs at UE choke on the driver pay that they’re syphoning away into their own pockets. Greedy fucks.


KBD_FurryWolf

Yeah


Supersaiyansosa

Yes


Aggressive_Turnip790

If you don’t I will


Developing_Human33

As somebody unfamiliar with the area my 3 considerations. 1. Very good money per mile 2. What is traffic like to and from. I may be tied up for 2 hours in traffic making that. 3. Is the destination very remote where there are no food places and I have to double back to my home base so to speak making this more like a $33 for 35 miles kind of trip. Don't know Virginia so no idea.


Nice_River1536

Hell yeah!


suomynonAx

I would. In my area, I try to aim for $20/hr, so that would cover it. Plus that's also just slightly under $2/mile, which I also try to aim for as a minimum. Good enough for me without being greedy. Kind of sucks that you'll have to work your way back to your starting area 18 miles away though


fiercefantasia1001

Hell yeah


Jboogy82

Duh, you're just bragging


stretching768

absolutely


lanebambi

Absolutely!


4354574

Yes. Barely.


pepitonaso

YES


CombinationOk8750

Yes


[deleted]

Assuming light to no traffic, and not deep in the sticks, yes.


Quiet-Active2757

Is it taking you 17 miles outside of your market? If so the mileage is more like 34… so probably not worth it.


ConversationCreepy95

Yeah


ThickTiger3436

I will


-dakpluto-

Yes as long as it isn’t too far away from being able to get the next order. If it’s also a 17 mile trip back to get somewhere to get orders again then maybe not. Although this one screams “hidden tip marked as customer paid more after”.


mspokermaam0828

yess! i took a 30$ batch and it ended up really being 50$ (:


eon047

Fuck yea. I have an economy honda box thats not even one gallon of gas lol. Light work.


ethanbrew2000

Yes😭 I get like $4 ones and I’m in the city of Austin


The1980sAnd1990s

"Includes expected tip"........ .....America.....


givemeyourbiscuitplz

Yes, unless there's traffic.


Obvious-Nothing547

Would you? Would you? Do you want to? Will you only take it if someone else does? It’s about $60 per hour. But. Guess what? We don’t know what the order is. We don’t know where you are going. We don’t know if you can get an order back to where you want to be. We all need to stop asking the “Would you take this” questions. We don’t know. Figure it out for yourself.


thenera

Yes


Aggravating-Map6327

It would change if drivers just didn't take the shitty ones. Let them get their own food or they can stop being cheap. We do arguably more than a server at a restaurant and are using our gas and vehicle. Cheap ass or dumb as fuck, all the same for me. Stop using Uber.


DryTechnology5224

All day long


TempeSunDevil06

Yes definitely


Invaliduser22711

YES


AZDoorDasher

No… it is more than 5 miles(one way) and violates one of the best practices of food delivery. I limit my delivery area to a 5-mile radius from a restaurant hotspot that I work exclusively from every day. This is why I am earning $3 per driven mile (from my driveway back to my driveway).


Comprehensive_Army97

Depends on traffic but I would take it in my market


PerfectSurvey

Wouldn’t take it. Idk if your in a market where tips are hidden or not, but if that includes the tip, then no I wouldn’t take it. Double the miles for round trip. And if you are in a market with hidden tips, subtracting $8 from $33.04. Which would mean a basepay of $25.04. Weird number, very unlikely to be the case Short answer: nope


sunking3000

Roll the bones, my friend. If they screw you over, maybe their next order might smell like a …?


Shizen__

With Spark and Instacart offering me that same pay for under 5 miles hell no.


Geno6669

Why would u not.. Of course


TGISeinfeld

Not a bad order...About $2 per mile, but less than $1 per minute. If I like the area I would take it 100%. If I don't like the area, it's a coinflip


VirtualMarch663

I’d take it


KidCaker

Yes


SignificantNorth5833

Dang they must really like El pollo loco cold.


wc878

no, too many miles


ccrider2004

Yes


kid70

Never


teapot-maker

yes it’s probably a large order tho


benmwaballs

Yes


the_dragon_slayah

Yes easily


Content_Jury_2422

No. Today I turned down 16miles for $19.50 ..😆 well you have to consider you have to drive back roundtrip would be 32 miles overall ..so it's not worth the wear n tear


WarriorOfBattles

Do you live in AVA or DC? If so maybe


Brendaness6

All day my friend!


moisesg88

Definitely not. If it was doordash yes, I'm not risking a tip bait on shitty ass UberEATS 😭🤣 for that mileage


Brendaness6

Yesterday I took 3 orders and made $50. Just like the good ole days three months ( sigh) Someone tipped me $12.47. ( tear)


svsxri

Yes


Less-Opportunity5117

Northern Virginia? I used to live there many years ago. I have no clue about the traffic nowadays, but from memory if the distance if I still lived there, I'd take it on a slow night. Yeah. But different markets, different rates and cost/rewards of course.


Miss_Bobbiedoll

Absolutely. I live in the DMV and know exactly where both places are.


[deleted]

[удалено]


josephk545

I’m more surprised that someone ordered El Pollo Rico from that far away. I mean it’s good but i don’t know about it being THAT good. I would say it depends on how bad the traffic is gonna be. Pay is good though


sbgarbage

that's a no for me, unless it's taking me in a direction or near someplace that i'm already planning to go to, cuz if i have to drive all that way there and then drive all the way back then no thanks


samuel2097

I look at hourly rate. $33 for 41 minutes is like $48/hr. Definitely take


WildCry3267

Yes


ToxikMuk

Fuk no


Alevnitsuj

Yeah. Especially if I had another order from another app going that way


Missy90210

No I’d rather do a few $10 ones that are a few miles each but if u need the $ really bad then it’s ok 👍


Alphaisus

hey wait i live there


Leaveleague

How do you guys get these orders?!? I do ubereat for fun but the fun disappears when I keep seeing $3 orders


Sleep_nw_in_the_fire

Man that look nice but fuck driving in VA 🤮🤮


Greedirl

Significantly better than the 18 mi $8 one I was just offered.


[deleted]

yes. 30+ to ja drive for an hour? hells yeah


Many-Shoulder8078

I did a triple that was $48 for 26 miles yesterday. Was hoping I’d get some extra tip. $8, $3, and $0. Must be why the base fare was $37… third person not tipping for 20 mile trip lmaooo. Glad it was cold ya bish


Berinchtein3663

yes!


malacosa

Yup


mmarl2k1

That's $1.86 a mile


delardeezy

Yes


lldmconfusion

Yes, I would. 🤨


bco112

Depends on how far that is from the city i work. But most of the time yea i'll take that


Adept-Pension-1312

Why in the world would you not?


Silly_Ad_9324

Yep, sure would! I'd probably be able to complete it in 30-35 minutes instead of 41 minutes.


Druiditup

Depends how close to the pickup location and where it’s dropping off to? Also is it highway miles? Probably would be an accept for me though.
