Brief

Chris Koerner recounts a Lyft driver who said she will earn $800 in two hours delivering for Uber Eats ahead of the Alabama–Georgia game, claiming $30–$50 profit per quick order and strong tipping from fraternity students. The driver says she relocates across SEC towns on game days, prefers delivery to her prior Mercedes factory job, and believes tech platforms have improved millions of lives.

Why it matters

A Lyft driver told Chris Koerner she will make $800 in two hours delivering for Uber Eats before the Alabama–Georgia game.

Key details

  • The driver said she profits $30–$50 from every order, that each order takes very little time, she drives all over SEC towns before football games, and that frat guys are the best tippers.
  • The driver previously worked at a Mercedes factory, prefers gig work now, and Koerner reports her view that 'big bad tech companies' have changed millions of lives for the better.

My Lyft driver is currently telling me she will make $800 in 2 hours of delivering for Uber Eats before the Alabama Georgia game.

She profits $30-50 from every order, and each order takes very little time.

She drives all over the SEC to do Uber Eats before football games. She says frat guys are the best tippers.

Before ridesharing she was working in the Mercedes factory and likes this much better.

Say what you want about big bad tech companies, but they have changed millions of lives for the better.
