I just want to make friends!
Well this could be comparable to the vast number of food delivery options. Do people use it, absolutely, but has it put anyone out of business. Also there's been a few interesting stories on the web in regards to über. First people aren't making the money they were promised and secondly to compete internationally they are operating at a huge loss in some markets. So back to flex delivery options, well first this will primarily be goods that already for the most part has been moved to regional carriers or the post office(amazons bitch) as I call them. I don't foresee much if any impact to either UPS or FedEx.
Exactly. Flex, Uber, Lyft, etc. suggest you'll make in the ballpark of $20/hour. That's sort of accurate, but what they don't tell you is that you'll get hit with a nice fat tax bill because you're a 1099 employee. Well, I'm assuming Flex drivers will be 1099'd like the others... Regardless, there will be a long line of suckers who'll sign up and leave in short order only to be replaced with the next wave of suckers.
If you want to make money with your own car, work for Domino's. You won't get hit with a tax nightmare and you still get paid minimum wage as long as you're on the clock.
