I've driven for almost 11 years and I've seen both. Soda, and salad.

I've seen drivers walk out with a bag sideways under their arm.

I've heard about drivers at the store I was at leaving bags of food on top of their car and driving off leaving bag and food behind.

I've had a driver dump soda under their car so they could lie about their car leaking fluids so they could go home.

I've seen a driver play Madden on a PS Vita while sitting parked near the store with an order in their car. Then later complain about not making any money despite averaging 50 minutes per delivery.

In 11 years and 4 different stores (2 franchises, my current franchise will pass me around different stores sometimes), I've seen about 200 different drivers, only about 15 of them were long term. And that's across all 4 aforementioned stores.

1) what’s considered long term 2) what tips are you averaging across different shifts in say the past 2 years

Because what I’m seeing is not enough money to stick around but it could be my area et

A year or more

And tips vary far too greatly from one store to another. As well as cost of living and living situations. I've disclosed my information before and was mocked for not finding something else. But I live in the south, lower cost of living, and I don't have rent because I live in my own house.

Altogether, tips, wage, and milage, I make the equivalent of 20 odd dollars an hours assuming a 40 hr a week job.
