Getting sent out of market to lower income areas, or simply bad areas to deliver in...

Don't you hate going to your preferred delivery area, logging in, then being sent across town to a bad area within the first or second offer?

These bad areas either have high amount of orders, low tips (the micky d junkies) or they have really bad, potholed roads and really bad traffic. Not to mention the roads are a total of 2-4 lanes, counting both directions.

Just my biggest struggle of being a scheduled hourly worker. I dont mind certain areas. But I work NW houston and when I'm sent to i10 or spring branch out of my market, and I tend to cringe. On top of that I have to practically fight my way back up by dealing with it and burning a break to go back North, or get lucky with an order pulling me back into my contracted market.

Note: I get little if any downtime. So I really don't have much time to travel north outside of orders. By the time I'm close to delivering something another order comes in.

My little rant. The struggle is REAL.
