@@levigoldberg901 Yes, they pay you for the work you did. Russ

Thank you for calculating that. It’s good to know our worth. That isn’t sustainable at $10 per hour. What market are you in? It’s hard because there are always new drivers to take poorer when current drivers give up. Russ

@@markanthonyfeble2206 You can’t. The best thing to do is move slowly. I made a cardboard inserts for my shirt pocket to help stabilize it. All the inexpensive cameras without an active stabilization feature are like this. The go pros and osmos are clearly better but also more expensive. I hope this helps. Russ

Yes, there are some nice parks here with plenty of room for sports, picnics, playing and hiking!

@@TheRussRyde Wow, Awesome

Thank you Majoy! Yes, it is a proven strategy ro make money despite the market. I have been torturing myself taking all orders on UberEats for a long time now, but that will end soon. I haven't seen a big increase in earnings and I suspect I'm putting a lot more miles on my car. The life of a food delivery professional! I appreciate your kind feedback on making videos too. I know there is a limit for going too fast so I'm trying to be more relaxed when sharing info. Russ

@ you are providing knowledge and that’s when TH-cam channels become more meaningful and worthwhile. You are doing a fantastic job! For a non English native speaker like me, your speed is still not a hindrance to understand your message😊

@ Thank you so much Majoy!!!

@@Darcy-j3s Thank you! The life of a rideshare driver….

Thank you Darcy, I think I prefer to have bullet points that I pause to remember what to address next. I am humbled how people can speak so eloquently on camera and not lose their train of thought. I have experimented with the Parrot teleprompter but it takes some practice to get used to. It helps no matter what to make the video two times. The first seems to work out my nervousness. Russ

@ I agree the bullet points or outline is very helpful. That’s my goal to not get sidetracked or have too many ums and such. I guess it’s like being an actor, have to memorize our lines if we want to keep from stumbling or losing our words. I might look into the Parrot thing. Thank you!

@@Darcy-j3s Yes, I think it is a little bit like acting too. I can tell that when I think I over express myself from what I normally act like, it doesn't look like that much watching it later. It's hard. But I will try to push myself more. I notice I say "so" "right" "go ahead". Eeee

I hear you, I felt the same way. I was livid! How dare they do this. I didn't do anything wrong. Please do reach out to Torston, the Rideshare Professor. His contact info is in the video description. He has a company that can fight for you to get reactivated and also take them to court and get money for backpay. Russ

@@EmpoweredLiving70 Yes, sad but true! I am grateful I got a little better over the last several (years) videos.

True. Using that rate we need at least $47 just to cover vehicle usage and that only leaves $23 for my time which is ridiculous. We are really getting paid out of our vehicle’s life expectancy. What do you think about that? So for my $53 I really made $6. Russ

@@babakoosaw Yes, that is correct. I didn’t include my expenses and gas is one of those. Thank you for calling that out!! Russ

@@TheRussRyde I did pizza delivery years ago. it was fun and made good money doing it.

@@babakoosaw That us encouraging to hear! I know we can't control customers but it is nice to receive several well paying orders vs. grinding out low paying orders. But we can chose what orders we accept and hopefully there are many to choose from so we can remain busy.

@@Garbagelifeus Thank you Everett! I am not afraid of hard work but I dread wasting time in traffic. Thank you for sharing your insights on this. I appreciate you! Russ

@@deguinn8116 Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it and hopefully learned something too. Russ

@@MAJOYDACIA Thank you Majoy, I just need to keep improving so people are excited to watch. Russ

@@MAJOYDACIA Thank you SO Much Majoy!!!

@@deliveringwithellen Hi Ellen, yes it is a little bit of paradise! Are you traumatized by Los Angeles too or should I toughen up? Russ

$2 per mile, and not going to a bad area.

Those are both great ideas! Thank you, Russ

@@rainfireworshipdance9535 You are welcome. I’m glad to be helpful! Russ

@@jorowi Thank you John! I try to do my best and listen to advice because I am far from perfect. I enjoy the long process and trust what I share does help drivers.

@@JOHNDANIELS254 Thank you so much John! Keep on doing a good job on your channel. Russ

​@@TheRussRydeWith inspiration from guys like you,the sky is the limit💪

You are welcome Rubel. You are doing a great job on your channel! Russ

Thank you so much. I am happy to hear it. I love helping others succeed. You do an excellent job teaching people on sales and overall being a better human being on your channel! Russ

@@TheRussRyde thanks Russ! It’s the community like this that supports each other that makes it all worth it, I agree on what you said, I can say the same for myself, I am nowhere near success like those huge TH-cam channels but we are successful every time we record a video that has so much value for one person or many. The rest is a bonus, at least for now that’s what I tell myself because I have just turned 2 months yesterday! Can you believe it!

Two months have gone by fast and you have no shortage of engaging content. Way to go, one video at a time.

@@TheRussRyde yep! It felt like it should be longer than 2 months because of how much I have grown as a content creator, when I look at my first few videos, I cringe a bit haha just can see how I was so inexperienced and nervous, I’m still learning each day but I feel like I have grown so much in a short time. Thanks also for your advice, always good to get feedback to get better💪🏾❤️😊

@@MAJOYDACIA You are welcome and thank you for helping me too!

Thank you Majoy! You are the best! Russ

@@TheRussRyde my daughter even knows Russ haha

@@MAJOYDACIA Nice! I’m curious what she thought about the Uber video. Was it too dramatic or understated. Was it reality or fantasy land.

@@TheRussRyde well as you know we live in Singapore, super safe country, it’s a good video for my teenage girls to watch to know that outside Singapore there are bad guys who can harm young girls and even mommies! So this is a content that I let them watch h to get a grip of reality outside Singapore bubble

That’s good. You can always look up news articles on how often a trafficker lures girls to take an Uber even across State lines. It’s so sad.

This is great! Thank you for educating her on the potential dangers!!! Russ

@@TheRussRyde Yes! Ive asked her to share your channel to all her friends who can learn from this and be warned, its very important for our kids to be aware to prevent being in scary situations, just terrifying to even think about what these youngsters can be exposed to if they are not warned and educated ahead of time

Check out the video description where I like info mentioned in the video.

I guess you have to pick your battles. I understand why they do it before we leave with the food but that seems a bit much. If they are nice about it and say they are scrutinized by their company then maybe I would feel sorry for them. But if they are harsh or rude then no way. But it's good to get along with others as much as possible. But it would eventually count against us if we are "hanging out" in the restaurant for no reason and not on the road. Russ

@@shawnhubbard160 This is demoralizing. Here’s a cut and paste from the video description for help with this. Consider seeking help from the Rideshare Professor; he is reputable and fights for drivers. Here is a cut and paste from his channel.... "Have you been Deactivated by Uber or Lyft? Let us help you. gigrocket.com/... Use coupon code HELP20 for a discount". ‪Russ

You always have to go inside and pick it up just like a regular food order. Russ

@@chris12x1 No, but I’ll bet they are great. I am still happily using my M5. Russ

@@TheRussRyde good to know thanks

@@chris12x1 You are welcome Chris! If you get a new one let me know what you think.

@@Floyd_Steel Hi Floyd, great question! Since this video I’ve realized that I can get more of these orders in advance as I increase my tier on Amazon flex. But I don’t do the package deliveries due to my availability so that’s unlikely to happen. Russ

@@MAJOYDACIA Ha! Thank you so much Majoy. Yes, I always try to be helpful. Russ

@@TheRussRyde that’s the beauty of creating a channel that brings knowledge, life lessons and awareness😊

@@MAJOYDACIA Yes! Thank you for checking out my videos .

@@TheRussRyde of course! It’s a good channel and it’s important to share around channels like yours, it’s life saver for sure🙏

@@MAJOYDACIA Thank you Majoy! This is a terrifying topic and it is very much still happening today. Russ

@@TheRussRyde it’s very very scary! I will share this video to my viewers and make sure they also get some ideas and awareness, I have two daughters and I couldn’t imagine the vulnerability of these kids when they go for a ride to school or a friend’s house 🥹

Yes, although Singapore is likely far more safe than here. But everyone needs to realize that children could be manipulated easily. Drivers should be exceedingly alert for things that appear wrong.

@@TheRussRyde yes it’s a very safe place and this won’t happen here, but still worth talking about it so when the kids leave Singapore for holiday perhaps and we know that when we get out of this bubble, it’s a dangerous place out there with predators everywhere🥹

@@ricky4673 Oh no, thank you for letting me know. Hopefully there is another way you can still flag it. Hopefully Uber just relocated it somewhere because….they surely are a safety champion. Russ

@@ricky4673 Don’t believe their excuse that it will just show up in a day or two. I think all you can do is contact support and hopefully you also have your own screen shots to “help” them. Russ

@@JOHNDANIELS254 Thanks so much John!

Thank you so much John!

Yes it will! Thank you for confirming this! Russ

@@HaroldD.Belegolo At 1080p it records 12 hours without the IR nightvision on. So based on what I could find I think another two hours so 14 hrs max. I hope this is helpful! I love using mine even now. It’s held up well. Russ

@@TheRussRyde thank you po!.

@@HaroldD.Belegolo You are welcome!

That is fantastic news! Thank you for the tip about the last four of the barcode. That's an insightful tip. I will use it too. That turned out to be a great shop and pay order. Thank you for letting me know! Russ

That is disturbing for sure. Sorry I just saw your comment. Do check out the video description and contact the Rideshare Professor. His company is legit and can help you. His name is Torsten. Please let me know how it turns out. I know it is very angering and frustrating for you. Russ

@@RHTrickster It is an IPhone 13 mini. No filters. My normal camera is a Canon 80D or I’ll use my Osmo action camera. Thank you for asking! Russ

Oh Awesome, thanks for letting me know

@@jorowi Yes, but it’s hard to know when they will do it. Other creators pointed out in time they will make them a longer short. Oh well! I have another one too that make public tomorrow.

@@TheRussRyde Yesterday was the official launch of the longer shorts. I've left mine unlisted until they get classified as SHorts.

@@jorowiThat’s a good idea. I won’t make any new ones until that change happens. I was so excited and eager to be ahead of the crowd.

@@texasrose2315 Yay! Please let me know what you think after some orders. I’m glad to be helpful. Russ

@@TheRussRyde Thank you, that’s very thoughtful of you. I will. 🦋

Was it slow today due to the holiday? It was for me. Russ

@@TheRussRyde I just did my first deliveries today, just did a couple made 30. I made 20 from my first grocery delivery. It was 5.8 miles for two pickup and delivery grocery. I just wanted to do a few, to get my first delivery jitters out of the way. Lol

@@texasrose2315 That is great to hear. Good job! Be careful of miles on your car. Restaurant deliveries tend to be higher miles than shopping. I’m excited for you. Please let me know if you have questions as things come up. Russ

Thank you!

@@JOHNDANIELS254 Thank you John! Yes being resilient is key! It helps with the ups and downs of order availability. Have a great week! Russ
