      Delivery Driver
      Former Contractor, less than 1 year
      Clarksville, TN

      Pros

      - Decide when to do it and where to do it; flexible - If you treat it like a real job (aka, schedule time blocks ahead of time, work 5-8 hours a day) you can get paid pretty well - Holidays are a great opportunity to drive, and rack up a lot of good orders.

      Cons

      - Can be very taxing on your car depending the amount of hours you work - The app have made mistakes, and have sent me to the wrong location a couple of times. - Slots can be limited and not always readily available if there is a surge of drivers in the area - The algorithm will send you orders with a bad mile-to-pay ratio one after the other, lowering your acceptance rate.

          Pros

            Pros

            The delivery drop offs are usually not far away from initial location. The peak pays are extremely valuable and appear regularly.

            Cons

            I feel like the algorithm for scheduling a double order is sometimes inconsistent. Once in a while it will take you somewhere really far away from the first drop off location.

              I'm my own boss. I schedule when I want to work.

                      I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.
