How much money can I earn by driving a drop?

I am a part-Time drip driver, located in Beijing, known as Master Q. I work from 7 to 3 on working days, and since I get off work early, when the weather is good, I run part-time drip after clocking off to supplement my Family, and occasionally run on weekends.

The earliest 2014 to 2015 before and after I also ran Drip and Uber, at that time subsidies, but I entered late, missed the golden period of burning subsidies, did not get much wool. Later on, the management of the network car is strict, without the relevant license to run the drip was caught to fine, and my car does not meet the specifications, I took a break.

The second half of last year, after the flower piggy out, watching the news that the wave of driver subsidies is good, I tried to land a drop driver side account, found that my drop magically can take orders, so a break of five years of part-time drop driver Q master again online.

From last year after Christmas, I ran around for a week, I did not expect the third day of the New Year’s Day holiday, the drop again forbade me to take orders. The reason was that my car had turned eight years old and was forced out. How can the ambition just ignited be easily extinguished. I found that the car was not in a good condition, and the eight-year-old car was still able to take orders, so I continued to run the car.

I’ve been paving the way for a long time, and without further ado, I’m going to get to the point, how much money can I earn by driving a drop/flower piggy part-time? I’m not sure what the difference is between the two, but I’ll take the Piggy as a starting point. on January 17, I went out at seven in the morning and returned Home at nine in the evening. in 14 hours, I received 25 orders and ran more than 300 kilometers, with a total of 623 yuan in fares plus the morning and evening rush rewards.

One of the expenses includes the morning and evening peak fare soaring card (7 days) bought for 50 yuan, that is, within a week of the morning and evening peak (7:00-9:00, 17:00-19:00) fare income Inflation of 25%. Let’s say, if when the single fare is 20 yuan, I will earn 25 yuan, and this 5 yuan of inflation is subsidized by Hana Piggy, not passenger expenses. Because of the tail number restriction and going to work, I can only run up to 8 morning and evening rush hours a week (4 days), so this soaring card should be considered a daily expense of 12.5 yuan.

Expense number two is the cost of gas. On January 17, I had a full tank of gas before I left home, and after running all day, I went to the discount station to fill up again before closing the car at night. 26 liters of gasoline cost me about 133 yuan.

In addition to the cost of gas and the “fare soaring card”, other expenses include lunch, dinner, as well as possible violation penalties, vehicle wear and tear, but these latter expenses The latter expenses should be borne on weekdays, so they cannot be counted as part of the expenses of running the drop. Here insert a sentence, open the single software is almost a single end followed by a new single, in addition to the destination is a wide range of places, rarely have to stop. The software requires that drivers must take a mandatory twenty-minute break after four hours of continuous orders, so lunch and dinner are seams to take advantage of the mandatory break and eat whatever they see along the way to solve.

If you run for 14 hours without stopping, your net income for the day is 623-12.5-133=477.5 yuan. If you run the drop full-time, your monthly income is 477.5 times 30, which equals 14,325 yuan. According to the data released by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Statistics and the Municipal Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security, the average salary (also known as the average social wage) of Beijing employees in 2020 was RMB 77,560, and the average monthly salary was RMB 6,463. This seems to make the drop driver’s income quite manageable. But the price is that you have two good kidneys, a good stomach capsule and a good vertebrae.

Some people may have to raise questions, saying that Master Q you provide this time and sample is not comprehensive enough, only one of your people, a Sunday data. To make you more convinced, let me provide you with the data of three other masters. Before providing these three data, as usual, I still have to pave the way and talk to you about the source of the data.

After my drops were banned from taking orders during the New Year’s Day holiday, I ran Flower Piggy for only a few days before I was stopped by preventive measures. The Hana Piggy required drivers to provide proof of a negative nucleic acid test for the last seven days before they could take orders, after which the platform organized free vaccinations for all drivers, who could continue to take orders after being vaccinated. Since providing a nucleic acid test is only good for seven days, the solution once and for all is to get vaccinated. So I made an appointment to get vaccinated, and in the process of getting vaccinated, I got data from other dropshippers.

The vaccination was given at an expo near the North Sixth Ring Road, and I made an appointment from 1 to 4 p.m. When I arrived at the expo at 3:30, I found that the line was already two to three hundred meters outside the park. I went to the end of the line before I could find the last person, there were two uniformed staff pulling the cordon, saying that today they could only test these people in front of the line. The crowd was in an uproar, cursing and swearing.

I didn’t want to run again, so I walked along the line outside the cordon and kept going to the entrance of the expo, and someone in the line of drivers said, come in come in. So I followed a few people and slipped in. I didn’t realize that there were black crowds lined up in the Expo Park. Three degrees below zero, four north wind, we a slip of about fifty people lined up, chattering and waiting to enter the test.

I observed that there was a female driver among about fifteen drivers, and it so happened that a female driver was next to me. We chatted about how far we had come to get our shots, how the roads were, and of course, about our income. A male driver goes out every day at seven o’clock, at noon to go home to eat and take a nap, after the evening rush hour run is about the same, he said he ran enough 600 yuan a day to close the car, another male driver also nodded yes, said he is also about the same number of children. The female driver said she ran for a longer period of time, running to seven hundred and fifty per day to close the car, every day is about ten o’clock rest. 30 days a month, 365 days a year, full time without rest.

The three drivers said, combined with my own experience of running a full day, the average almost every driver’s daily flow in 650 yuan, the net income is about 500 yuan, monthly income is 15,000, annual income of 180,000. 2019, the data released by the drop shows that the percentage of draw 19%, so a full-time driver contributed to the drop of draw income is about 45,000 per year.

Passenger’s story

After the account is finished, I will say some more feelings, running drip will meet a variety of people, someone dressed in SKP work, living in the sixth ring near the urban village; someone divorced crying; someone on the phone does not avoid suspicion to listen to my body goose bumps; someone road kill I too difficult to receive. In short, it is sweet and sour, a hundred flavors of Life.

In the evening of January 17, I received a man near the Cai Shi Kou department store (a famous store selling jewelry in Beijing). When the car passed the entrance of the Cai Shi Kou department store, the man opened his mouth and seemed to say to himself.

“Why do you think you have to buy a diamond ring to get married, isn’t it good to buy Gold? The value of the value, life can not go on can also save the emergency. “

I replied smoothly: “Yes, the diamond bought down, there is no room for appreciation. “

Man: “You get married to buy diamonds? “

I: “Buy ah, not all fashionable this. “

“You really did the right thing, women want to get married without this. “The man said with a sigh,” I did not buy. “

I: “Your daughter-in-law is good at life. “

The man was a bit disheartened, “she said no, I also have all the money in her hands, so did not buy. After a quarrel, she took this to talk about it. “

I explained to him: “Find an anniversary to buy her another one, to make up for it. “

Man: “There is no chance, we are divorced. “

I did not answer. After half a minute, the man choked and said: “There is really no chance. “

He took his Parents to his ex-wife’s house several times to plead for mercy, but was rejected. The former mother-in-law always said, don’t look at my daughter divorced still with a baby, she is not worried about remarriage as usual. The man said his parents were humiliated by these words. I said you still have a baby, maybe you can still remedy. The man heard talk about the child and opened up the conversation.

He is a Handan, working in a hospital logistics department in Beijing, his ex-wife and his two from school on the good. When it came time to talk about Marriage, his ex-wife’s (then still girlfriend) mother suspected that her future son-in-law was not capable and did not want to marry his daughter. But the two love each other, and the rice is ripe for the picking, I did not expect the child in the belly or her mother to pull to abort.

The two eventually got married, and the old mother was unhappy when they got married, but still attended the wedding.

After the marriage and the two had a child, but unfortunately the conflict or inevitably broke out, less than three years after the marriage, the two divorced, the child was the mother back to Hebei to raise, the man out of the household. The young couple saved three or four years of money originally prepared to buy a house, the results are left to the old mother.

The old mother is actually not old, not yet 50 years old, is also divorced for a long time, later remarried and have a teenage son, so the daughter and son-in-law divorce money was taken by the old mother to Handan to buy a house, that means to their young son later do the wedding house. The man also said that now the old mother still does not let him see their children, call over is to ask for money, all kinds of reasons.

That day the man said it was his birthday, the brothers know he was alone called him out to get together, he pushed. A hair novel invited him to eat a bowl of noodles to simply celebrate, although he did not have the heart or decided to go to the appointment, so they got into my car.

Before getting out of the car, he said he gave all the money to his ex-wife, because there are still thoughts in his heart, maybe the other side will change their mind. I laughed and wished him a happy birthday. Watching his back disappear under the neon lights of the new world of Chongwenmen, I hope he can usher in a new world!

There is another story, it was after 8 pm almost 9 pm, after sending a passenger from South huawei Road to a residential area near Dougezhuang, I waited for half an hour before receiving the next order, and when I received the person, the woman in black was on the phone.

“Why do you give him that, he is allergic can not eat … you in the end will not take care of people, the child to you how I can let go … you do not say again, I will never call you again …your son is what good thing, gambling and drug addiction, I married him is really blind, now well, he went in a hundred…I am not good to you, you deserve it, so many children do not care about you, it is your own sins too much, I am a daughter-in-law, and your son divorced what obligation to manage you? I am good to you, my child you have to look well … oooooooo”.

It sounded like a call to her ex-husband’s mother.

Her destination was a neighborhood near Sihui Bridge. The previous caller just hung up and immediately made another call:.

“Husband … I’m back, just in the neighborhood, you’re at home, I’ll be there soon oh … mmmmm “.

It sounded like a call to his current husband.
