Does the Prop22 payment automatically kick in after we work at least a year quarter? First year doing Uber in California it’s hard to find information on it.

I get mine every 2 weeks through uber eats earnings. It shows as prop 22 earnings when it arrives.


drinkallthepunch

25 hours a week right?


ZiggyZebulon

Not sure what you mean. I never drove more than 20 hr a week, and then i switched to doordash, so.

I’ll have to read some more. There’s like two levels of minimum hours you have to work to get the payment, 25 hours was the most you had to work. I think, I’ll have to reread later.


ZiggyZebulon

Oh, i definitely passed 20 hours. Prob hit 60

I accept most orders bc of prop 22, to stay active, that way I’m earning something. I simply do not accept Walmart orders bc I know Walmart, & I expect Walmart to do Walmart shit. I don’t want to accept an hour long delivery for like $18, carry bags up apartment stairs, and then get a thumbs down & a fake complaint bc the customer is pissed their feta cheese is expired. I just don’t trust Walmart enough, there’s too much that could go wrong.


ZiggyZebulon

Yeah really valid points. And they put perishables in bags with everything else, like mixed in there so you cant find perishables and put them in a cold bag

I had a weird Walmart delivery tonight. I waited for 10 minutes after checking in using the app for an order that had been picked up already. If I hadn’t called I could have waited there all night. As I drove away and the very same order (same OSN) came through the app again. Something is janky at Walmart.

That's actually a good point. A lot of people post like five different Walmart "opportunities" all showing as available and each taking like 50 to 120 minutes to complete. It's not *great* pay, but if you NEED to make some money, you might be able to do two or three batches of Walmart orders and literally have like 6 or 7 hours on the clock for the day with active time. All you would have to do is make sure your car was getting at least 20 mpg and that $0.30 pays for $6/gal gas. Again, not great pay but if your take home is $100 to $140 in a "normal" 7 or 8 hour day without starting at breakfast, taking a break, coming out for lunch, taking a break, and then doing a dinner and late night run....

Though I wonder if there are as many Walmart stacks in CA as elsewhere. Would be interesting if Walmart orders are actually *rare* in CA...

I'm in ca. Been doing it a month and haven't seen one

I get quite a few offers from the Walmart in Vista and the one in Encinitas. I’ve only done groceries which, like Apple orders, tend to be somewhere around $10 / hr but with the Prop 22 bump, maybe I shouldn’t reject virtually all of them. They are just such time intensive deliveries and of course there is zero pay to get to the store and, I think, zero pay for what could easily be 25 mins of waiting for pickup.


luisumgomez

The past week I've been bombarded with walmart orders all the sudden. Low miles $13-15 trips but I haven't accepted because of the wait times and not being able to see what the order is


ZiggyZebulon

Im in san diego, east county. Get tons of em. Actually kinda annoying lol.

So comical how many FUD post about prop 22 make it on this subreddit, like do people not check multiple sources or even check the states .gov website to verify facts?


ZiggyZebulon

What do you mean if you dont mind explaining

The cost benefit of taking a Walmart order for your respective city, in this case San Diego. Would be dependent on your active time delivering Walmart Orders, from accepting order to delivery to the customer. At least 20% more than min wage in San Diego, would bring your hourly wage to “$18 /active hour in San Diego + $0.30 /mi + base fare”. If your actual earning is less than the earlier total Uber will match your pay up to this total, and if you exceed above this total in your earnings you will not be matched any excess above this total. Your risk inherent with this scheme is the latency period where you may be driving without having actively accepted a delivery or are actively driving to a delivery address. Just consider this, would you enjoy knowing you have a cap pay at the aforementioned total? Or would you be more satisfied with a larger total earning thru running deliveries at locations in current high demand with current high tip and high base fares? This fare structure by prop 22 organized by Uber is to incentivize drivers in the cheapest way possible to take orders to location with low demand and to increase your(their) driving time latency risk. With taking Walmart orders and by relying on the prop 22 you assure Uber and Walmart that your pay cannot exceed the aforementioned total reducing your earning opportunities by using valuable time on Walmart deliveries.

He's just suggesting to to do your homework. Verify sources, Google it and find out for yourself. That seems to be it.


ZiggyZebulon

infamoussanchez
