    I see a few comments mentioning taxes, so let me clarify. I include sinking funds in my monthly budget. Those include all of my yearly expenses, which not only include taxes on what I earn but also property taxes, car registration, insurance, etc. Those are all included in my monthly goal, so I did not mention them separately, but rest assured, they are accounted for. ;)

    I started doing UE & DD full time last year. I had a full time job that I quit due to it being a drain on my mental health. I worked for this company for 5 years and couldn’t do it any more. I missed so much time with my kids and family and my full time job was draining me emotionally and mentally. I’m not making as much doing gig work, but my mental health is 100x better and I get more time with my family. I know I won’t be doing gig work forever, but for now it’s paying my bills and allowing me the freedom I need to work on myself and spend time with my favorite people. I love watching your videos, you’re hilarious! I’m a local too (in the Tampa area). Love your content and I wish you nothing but success and happiness!

    I don’t do it full-time anymore I usually dash and Sarasota area but I’m from Arcadia a small town in Florida. Sometimes I get good orders here sometimes I don’t. I haven’t DoorDash or Uber eats in months. I do have a normal full-time job doing irrigation work. Thank God for that it is weekly pay. I make decent money with that but just like she says any job has its setbacks for sure. As example it is Sunday and I don’t work tomorrow, because the job that was lined up rescheduled, just trying to watch out and say be careful of your choices. Good luck.

It could definitely pay more, but getting sun and natural beauty all day, seeing new towns, getting plenty of exercise, plus the freedom of time definitely beats being in an office or sitting at my computer all day. Hope it treats you well as long as you do it 👌🏾

    The only way gig work is somewhat profitable is if you accept minimum $7 order and $2 per mile and constant. You are correct about car expenses and depreciation will shock many people with high mileage cars when its too late down the road. Accepting a $5 order while driving your car at your expense is ridiculous. 20 years ago if you asked a cab driver to pick up food for $5 and deliver it 2 miles away he would laugh in your face. ....20 YEARS AGO!!!! Today with costs of housing, food , gas etc are triple what it was 20 years ago and people accept $3 offers....LOL

    This is great news! Once your son is better and you get back to a routine, you can Dash 3 or 4 days a week and get content for your channel. You can show days where you're just running errands, outings with your kids, working on your budget, etc. You're a likable, funny, and interesting person so that's why you're getting more viewers. It was so funny when you "confessed" by showing your Christmas tree was still up.

    Meaty Mama, you are my inspiration to consider gig work fulltime, I have come to realize that you and I have similar motives to do so. I have learned a lot from you. I've just started dashing less than 3 months ago, and I have already gone through all the things you have listed in your video except for parade. On the topic of "time", I think you did have more time, considering the freedom you had to go dashing at different hours everyday, doing stuff around the house in the morning or taking the entire day off, which is such a blessing. I do understand that you still felt exhausted because "life" got in the way, but I am so inspired by your journey and I want to thank you for sharing it with us out there. I want you to know that I'm praying for you and the children. May God bless your endeavors!

    I ❤ you video! You’re the most personable & real person I’ve seen talking about the good the bad & the ugly of doing this job. I just started today & the ONLY order I got was to an apartment complex & I wanted to cry trying to find the apartment building

    I remember few years ago, my grandma fell the same way, her foot hit the curbside except she fell flat on her stomach and hit her face. I was so sad, and angry that I wasn’t there to help her thankfully my brother and sister was there to help her and didn’t need to go the the ER but it’s part of life people trip and fall unexpectedly no matter how careful you are. I especially don’t like seeing the elderly fall. She is now with the Lord. By the way Thanks for these videos meaty mama and stay safe out there! #Giglife 🙌

    😂This video was an absolute delight!!!! While also being so informative! It was an awesome way of breaking down the good, the bad, and the ugly of gig work while also acknowledging the undeniable great things about it!👍 So happy you see losing your full time job as a blessing in disguise!!! I 100% agree! HOWEVER, I think it was pretty shitty to "let you go" right then under the circumstances!😩 I look forward to each new video you share, and hope the KZread, gig work combination continues to only get better and more lucrative for you moving forward!🙏💖

    Wow, Meaty Mama, your latest KZread content is absolutely phenomenal! It's incredibly authentic and refreshing to see a Dasher like you sharing the truth about KZread income combined with dashing earnings. Your honesty is inspiring, and it motivates me to believe that I can do it too. As a deaf individual, I have stories to share while dashing, but filming and editing can be incredibly challenging. Nevertheless, I'm thrilled to see you continuing on this journey. You've got this, girl! 💪🏻 My thoughts are still with your son for a speedy recovery.

    Bless your heart for making a living for your family. I just found your channel . My son lost his job in CO and he is Door Dashing after substitute teaching all day. He lost a very good job in Finance. Here is is with a Masters degree in finance and he is working day and night to pay bills. MY DIL is a teacher and grateful to have her job. It is tough out there. I feel for you with your kids and trying to make it work. Not all hero's wear capes and you are one of my heros. Godpseed...

    Great video. I also left a job that I no longer enjoyed and was wondering what I was going to do. Door dashing wasn’t a thought for me but appreciate this video and you insight so THANK YOU!!! As an older woman myself I decided to go back into waitressing. I waitresses for 13 years in my younger years and loved it then and I’m loving it now. I’m receiving good tips and I don’t have to deal with the previous office job stuff. I walk in and walk out and I’m done for the day. Kudos to you for having a KZread channel. I look forward to watching another video!!!

Plus you can create your hours work hours big benefit to you with the kids. Once the debts are pain & you have some emergency saved you can work less hours. Its going to all come together & hope door dash & uber eats start paying better. Great video for anyone interested in starting out. Hang in there Mama!!!

    This was so interesting, and I appreciate how transparent you are. It seems that God closed one door, to open another one for something much better, and with the flexibility you need as well. It might take awhile to find your balance of work and family time, but you'll get there. Yesterday I found my old phone and have been running your play list on it continuously. I left it plugged in, in the dining room. Lol, my husband kindly woke me up when he left for work at 4 am, to bring it to me. He thought it was my regular phone and I would need it for the alarmclock. 😅 Hugs and prayers for Aiden!❤🙏🙏🙏

    Love the compilation video!! I do Instacart because my young adult son has a medical condition that keeps him from driving, so I drive him to his college classes and whatever he needs to do. Gig work is the only job that gives me the flexibility to be available for my family. I do a little DoorDash, but I prefer Instacart. I drive a minivan, so I have to be super picky about mileage. I try to pick orders going in whatever direction I’m already going. I take the kid to class 30 minutes away and try to grab an IC order heading towards home, might as well get paid to drive where I’m going anyway. Keep it up Mama! Thanks for sharing the updates on your son.

    I’ve been taking people to medical appointments, the ones where they hey want you accompanied for family or a friend ( colonoscopies, wisdom teeth removed, etc). You’d be surprised how many people have no one to help. I bring books to read while I wait and afterward I get them home safe with their post-op instructions and meds. It’s something maybe you could do too. Pays well right away.
