I couldn't imagine doing the job without cell phones, there's usually one bad address a night or they forget to give their apt # or buzzer # lol without a cell we'd have to find a payphone or go back to the restaurant... their a life saver for sure.
I don't get commission, but I do get 1.$ per delivery and tips on top of my wage plus a meal a day. I work for a little family owned Chinese food joint, great people and good food. If I didn't smoke cigarettes I'd be making more than enough to live off (and even save a bit) lol but of course I'm broke all the time... f'n smokes (one day soon... I know it) I honestly love my job, Ha I almost feel like I'm getting paid to bring people food and tell them about bitcoin, for the last 2 weeks I've been telling my customers about steemit, I'm trying to get my whole community on board. lol and I'm seeing a lot of happy faces ;)
some good tips
Save some bucks and get a decent dash cam - because you're on the road more than most drivers the law of averages means you're more likely to eventually get into an accident lol it'll most likely not be your fault and the proof will save your ass.
Youtube is your friend - you can do 90% of the repairs most cars end up needing, K&N air filters and good spark plugs can make a 2 liter 4 cylinder 5 spd nice and peppy and will even save a bit of fuel, I even over inflate my tires a tad so the roll better (for the dry season) I don't like paying over 1000. for a delivery car lol but prefer to only pay 500.$
Keep your fuel tank topped off especially in the summer time - most fuel pumps use the fuel to transfer the heat that the pump creates... so a full tank means it can disperse a lot more heat than a tank near Empty and end up burning it out. Fuel pumps are expensive and pains in the asses to change
and get a steemit.com logo on your back window - just cause ;)
Cheers man, Good luck with your new job lol may 16 deliveries be a slow night for ya
