Since it has been a while...

I have decided to be kind enough to supply an update. Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, though it is just a simple paste of my last essay written in philosophy. It is nothing exceptional but, like most my work, I am still somewhat proud of it at least. The topic? A critical dismissal of Platonic forms and mild praise for the metaphysics of ( Read more... )

Okay, yes, I do recall you quitting your job. And yes, you have asked me this before but it's not a problem.

As for gas money, yes, the company does reimburse you. It varies from company to company but the average reimbursement, from my experience at least, is 50 cents per delivery.

As far as profit... that depends, of course, upon how many days/hours you work a week and how busy your place of employment is. My pizza place is the the second busiest in the city, it might actually be the first now. It would also depend upon how many drivers there are. The more drivers on at a time means you'll be only taking one or two orders at a time and therefore less tips. So it is contingent upon a number of factors. I personally make on average between $30 and $40 a night. On Sat/Sun, where I usually work the long opening shift, I pull in between $70 and $100.

I hope that answers your questions. Although, one thing I think you should consider is the car maintenance involved in driving. I have had my new car for only 11 months and I already have 20,000 miles on it. I've also already gone through two sets of tires and, in my experience, my alignment constantly gets screwed up because of the constant driving. There is alot of wear and tear on your vehicle and that is something alot of drivers don't consider at first; I didn't for sure. Personally, I'm trying to find another job right now because it is becoming quite a burden on my car. The trouble, of course, is trying to find a job that can replace the sort of income I am used to and need to pay my bills. Just thought you should consider that too.

I've considered the car maintainence issue and am inclined to find a job elsewhere. Thanks for the promptness and informative response. Oh, and thanks for re-answering some of these questions.
