Delivery services are taking advantage of desperate, hardworking people who are simply trying to survive. They use your personal car like it’s disposable — without caring about the cost of gas, maintenance, repairs, or the damage to your tires and engine. Every mile you drive is wear and tear on your only asset, yet you are barely compensated for it.
They send offers like driving 20 miles for $3 — an amount that doesn’t even cover fuel — and if you decline these unfair requests, you are punished by lowering your rating or points. It feels like you are forced to choose between losing money or losing your standing on the platform.
There is no transparency about mileage, and customer tips often do not go directly to the drivers who earned them. Drivers are left questioning where that money goes, while they struggle to make enough to survive. You also risk being sent into unsafe areas without warning, putting your personal safety at risk.
In the end, you realize you have sacrificed your vehicle, your time, your safety, and your dignity. Your car is worn down, your expenses are high, and you are left with almost nothing to show for all your hard work. It feels less like an opportunity and more like exploitation of people who have no other options.
