Well, I guess I have officially joined the 21st century Gig economy. A few months back I set up a Dasher account on Door Dash just to see how it worked.
On New Year's Eve, we were bored of the second run of the NYE TV show, so Tree and I went dashing mostly for the drive and did a couple deliveries. We had fun.
So I've been doing a few more this week when I had an hour or two to spare. It's an impressively efficient system considering how new it is to our area and the variety of restaurants that use it, even in my small town.
I've put in about 6.5hrs (mostly NY Day) and made an average of $CAD20/hr inc. tips. Not sure if it's going to be a solid thing, but I guess my foot is in the door.
If you're interested, let me know. Happy to answer questions about it. I've done tech consultant/help kind of work off and on for over 20 years and have had a business name associated with that for most of that time but it's never been more than the odd job here and there. That was kind of the 20th century version of the side hustle.
This app-based stuff is interesting.
#mushroomFM What does Santa Claus say when he eats too many cookies? “Ho, ho, hwuh! 
Sidenote: as a former #DoorDash #DoorDasher #Dasher delivery driver in the United States (#atx #AustinTX #Austin to be specific), I'd be very interested in seeing if other studies from a #Marxist perspective have been done here, and whether or not the line up with the observations made by Rafael Grohmann, Mateus Mendonça, and Jamie Woodcock in Brazil and the UK.
The entire time I was reading this article, I was nodding along, thinking: "Yeah, that's similar to what I was doing on Reddit. Yeah, I've had the occasions where DoorDash 'support' wasn't very supporting. Yeah, I've had customers and vendors alike try to jerk me around. Yeah, I've gotten dirty looks as a Dasher at restaurants."
@kernsac @jonathan You and Dan are both with me at the dashing #dasher table. #MushroomFM
Not sure what is worse: prancing or dancing on the table. I think dashing from table to table mixing and mingling sounds more fun. #MushroomFM #Dasher

Pulling a #Christmas cracker. What do frogs wear on their feet? Open toad sandals. #Dasher #MushroomFM
@Pamanddogs [tweesecake.social] As I'm at the #Dasher table as well, I agree, we certainly deserve crackers after that. #MushroomFM
@jane_jordan After all this door dashing, I'm very hungry. Sitting at the #Dasher table and ready to party. #MushroomFM And now, you've just made me very hungry.
Hello #Dasher table. Join me and let's get ready to party! #MushroomFM
I always wanted to be a #Dasher, and now I get to sit at the Dasher table. Once I'm done dashing to people's doors with food, I'll be back to party like only I know how. Wait, my #parents are at the same table? Oh well, I won't be on my best behaviour then. #MushroomFM
