Friday March 17th St. Patrick’s Day 2023

By Food for thought

The Uber driver app says I took 2 trips today, and I earned a little over $85.00. It was an Oil Change Friday. In Manatee County Spring Break started last week on the 13th and just today I picked up this young dude named will
and he said “his Spring Break started as soon as his last class was over today” lmao.
As far as staff, it starts on 03/20/2023 and goes through a single 5 day week and ends on Friday 03/24/2023. Spring Break is the best driving week ever.

The Uber driver app says I completed 3 trips today, I earned a little under $95.00. I met a really cool couple today they were from Massachusetts. I knew they we’re going to be a cool ride because we talked about my favorite subject, well actually it is right behind my favorite topic which is food lmao! We spoke about marijuana and about how it is now, contrasted with how it used to be. Kevon made the request on SPB and we went to Bradenton.
It was a good ride as I predicted. Kevon is also a fellow Uber driver.

The Uber driver app Says I completed 3 trips today. I earned just over $65.00. I knowingly left Pinellas county at 4:30 PM that cost me around $25.00 at least. I saw a request that was headed to Ellenton and was paying like $32.00 so I took it, and went offline, then home. I got home at like 6:15 PM. Sunset now that Stupid time change. So we should just leave here now.

The Uber driver app says I completed 3 trips today.
I earned a little over $70.00. I fucked up
a couple times though and that’s all it takes to have
a bad day driving for Uber. I am going to sleep like right now.
It’s like 11:00 PM because oh the stupid time change!

The Uber driver app says I took 4 trips today.
I made a little over $100.00. Saturday’s at night was always the best night of the week for me. Thankfully Sunday Daytime is even better driving than Saturday Nights used to be. I am talking about volume of rides. You need to decline a lot of trips to find a good one now anyway. It used to be way different. The driver did not know the destination until the rider was in the car and the driver started the trip. Just stop reading right now and think about that. I drove the majority of my 10,000 trips like that. So a driver would drive for several miles and the rider would be going just a few blocks. Lots of those kind of trips every day. I used to drive 7 days a week too. So tomorrow is usually the best non-holiday week. I have had a bad day every day of the week. The best days for driving for Uber are the last two weeks in March every year.

Blog for Friday March 10th 2023

I forgot to blog last night, that is a side effect of not blogging as soon as I get home. I try not to forget, but I do. I just fell asleep soon after I ate. The Uber app says I completed 3 trips yesterday and I earned a little over $100.00. It rained in St. Petersburg yesterday and my wipers worked on all speeds which is a good thing because my mechanic didn’t have time to do anything last time but replace the brake actuator which is a pretty big job

It UPS arrived with the new/used head (342.40 shipped) unit for my car. It worked perfectly! I watched a couple videos again, went out there, took out the Map disk from the old unit first (2019) (62.04 shipped) using what I just learned on YouTube, took out the old unit, put in the new unit and everything works perfectly! I put in the new unit and then came in and rode the Peloton and tomorrow I will go driving with that new unit, the Aux cable works again! So does everything else. I can tell which road I am currently driving on and CD’s play again too! So awesome!
