Lyft and Uber say they will leave Minneapolis if the mayor signs a minimum wage bill for drivers::Lyft and Uber threatened to stop doing business in Minneapolis after the city council adopted a new rule Thursday that would set a minimum wage for rideshare drivers.
So do pizza delivery drivers and they make great money.
They really don’t. When I was a pizza guy about ten years ago, after fuel & maintenance I would make the equivalent of about $12 USD per hour averaged over a month of full time work.
And one big repair like your power steering pump can ruin the whole month. It’s a great way to “use up” the last of your car before you scrap it, but really not a sustainable job.
Weird because when I was a pizza guy, I made more than I did as a teacher
Well are you factoring in the costs to the automobile like they mentioned? As they say they are a hidden cost and can be quite considerable long term as delivering pizzas adds a lot of wear and tear on a vehicle. When I delivered a LOOOONNNG time ago the costs really did sneak up on me. It was a fun job, and initially I thought it paid well - till I got a couple surprises.
Yes.
Holy fuck, someone as dumb as you is teaching people? Scary.
I’m vastly smarter than you, but no longer a teacher. Pay couldn’t keep up.
Well, you did go get a degree that scored you a job that pays less than a pizza driver, so I have to assume that you’re actually not very smart at all. ;)
So long and thanks for the laughs. :)
Lol fuck teachers amirite?
No way they should be paid more.
Anyway I’m currently making 6 figures. What do you make?
Seven figures. Ooops.
At the risk of embarrassing you further, “6 figures” is grammatically poor. “six figures” would be the correct option.
I feel sorry for anyone you ever taught. Dumbass.
Lmao maybe I’ll hire you some day when you graduate.
Wouldn’t that be fun?
Ah yes, pizza delivery drivers are well known to be among the highest income earners. Up there with doctors, I believe.
Good time to remind everyone doctors are overpaid due to artificial scarcity, because the ADA lobbies Congress to artificially limit the number of residencies, to keep supply of doctors low
And I didn’t say pizza drivers were rich, I said they make a good living. They do.
I made about $20/hr as a delivery driver, take-home, which put me above both what I made as a teacher (roughly 14/hr) and my next 2 jobs (e-learning developer, salesperson -16/18 respectively).
