Looking for input specifically from drivers who were active pre-2020 and post-2022.
Trying to separate long-term trend vs newer driver experience.
Started in June 2018.
Ended September 22, 2024. Not full time obviously.
I didn’t just stop randomly.
I stopped at exactly 10,000 trips.
Breakdown:
– 6,949 people
– 3,051 food deliveries
Over that time I watched the system change:
– steady pay decline early on
– insane spike during COVID (food delivery)
– stabilization in 2021–mid 2022
– then a clear shift around July 2022 where things never felt the same again.
I know it depends on the area however this is widespread.
I’m not driving anymore, but I’m curious:
Do current drivers feel like summer of 2022 was the turning point too?
