Well that was an extremely shitty day at work.

Started out logging in by the corner of Okemos and Jolly roads.

Where I get off the highway on that side of town to start my day.

First offer I get is GrubHub. All the fucking way to Dewitt I69 at Airport road. It was enough to say fuck it I'll just come back after.

They hit me with another offer when I was just about done with that one going all the way into Grand Ledge to the Taco Bell.

I said o.k. because I could use the highway and still go back when done.

The Taco Bell had not gotten the order and said that I was the second driver already this morning that they told their system wasn't working.

I got ahold of Driver Care chat and the first one disconnected on me while I was telling him the problem. I went out and back and the second one told me he would resend the order and I could check after 5 minutes.

I actually waited the 5 minutes and checked with the employees again. They said they were on the phone with their tech guy, but the order had not come in yet.

I texted the customer about them not getting the order, but he did not reply.

After I checked back I said good luck and rejected the offer.

That counts against me because their equipment wasn't working.

I guess I am supposed to wait an hour for an order. Fuck that.

I headed back to where I started and got hit with an Uber order going to East Lansing.

By the time I got back to the east side of town it was past breakfast and I got screwed around and did not make shit.

The Taco Bell thing is 0 money even for the 5+ miles to get there.

Then someone started playing games with my Internet connection and I would accept and offer from one of the other apps and as soon as I did I would get an Uber offer going in a different direction.

Service suffered as I was so low on earnings I had to take both and the second one took longer than it should have.

In the later afternoon the offers started getting stupid. I was at the Meridian Mall, which has a Panda Express, and they routed me to the Panda Express in downtown East Lansing for an order going to the area just north of the lake by Park Lake road??

From the mall straight up Marsh to I69 and off at Webster and pretty much there in 10 minutes to Downtown East Lansing and working my way through the area and all the way around the 25 mph lake area which took about 20 to 25 minutes????

WTF DoorDash????

Then later as I was going north on Okemos road coming back from Mason, Grubhub decided to route me to the Chipolte at the corner of Okemos and Grand River roads for a delivery going to S. Cedar St. in Mason at about 4:30 pm.

With no way to get to the highway until I96 which would take me to US127 and down to Cedar or Kipp in a kind of round way or take Okemos Rd all the way to Mason and cut over to Cedar the delivery took 20 minutes.

If they had routed to order to the downtown East Lansing Chipolte whoever got it could have delivered it in 10 to 15 minutes as they were closer to 127.

The whole thing was a fucking mess today.

If they keep this shit up they are not going to have me out there when the weather gets really bad. I can stay at home for a month and be o.k.
