 It's DDK and I'm back with another video. Put me on your big screen video. Today we're going to talk about should you quit your job and do gig work? You're going to find out what I think in this video. Again, put me on big screen video, but we do got two loads. It's time to pull up and get our pockets on swole. Load number one is from the carrier company. We're going to draw 33 day ahead miles, 35 miles loaded. So 68 miles altogether for 125. It's time for us to pick up the prize. And we are here at our favorite place to be. So we can get this cheese. Russ. My God, Russ right here. What's going on, boss? I have a load going to Pleasant Prairie to buy a fast. I'm going to turn it back. All right, appreciate it. You all know what time it is. My God, pull it up so we can run it up. Perfect, right there. And just like that, we go about to pull up and get in our zone. Let's go. I just came from down there, from Glenview. You saw that accident over there? That was crazy. That was crazy. My God, Mike, about to get us right. Well, that's the way you do it. You cook a steak, man. After you drop the grill, it's got to sit there for like 10, 15 minutes, right? Yeah. And Russ, let it cool off. Let the juice in there, man. And you keep side cooking in the juices. Yeah. So we got a QC department, okay? Stuff comes over there and then I was supposed to ship. It sits there for two, three days. Two, three days. So I came up with the same scenario as a steak, you know what I mean? It has to cool off a little bit. It's got to cool off a little bit, Mike. Don't get worn over. Yes, sir. Number two, guess what you're about to do? Get some more money. We have another load from the carrier company. We're going to drive 11 deadhead miles, 115 miles loaded, so 126 miles altogether for 240 shorty. Let's go. Just like that. We are here at the pickup. We're trying to pick up and run it up, baby. Run it up. How you doing, sir? Doing good, how are you? I'm doing great. I woke up this morning. I can't complain. I have a load going from here to Rosendale, Wisconsin. I don't have the order number though, so. Rosendale, they say it was like 350 pounds. Let's do it. All right. Where your name is? Yeah, right down here, right? I saw it when I came in. Yes. All right. Thank you very much, you guys. Have a great weekend. Yes, sir. So you're just putting just those on individually or putting the whole pallet on? You just put the whole pallet on, that's fine. Yeah. What is that? I don't even know to be honest. It's called Juneberry, but I don't know. You don't know exactly what it is, right? I think it's like some type of flavor that you use. Oh, okay. We learn something new every day. Oasis spray, we have Oasis spray, baby. Doom, doom. Comment below if you know about that. Oasis spray, comment below and let me know. Be on over here. Comment below and let me know. We here to go. Appreciate you, boss. We have a go, but stay up. Oh. Appreciate you, boss. Have a great weekend. Time to strap this joint up so we can go right here and run it up. Oasis spray, what y'all know about the Oasis spray? And just like that, y'all. Stevie got the bar. Now it's time for us to go far and let's go. And we are here at the drop off location. Hopefully this joint, oh yeah, this joint will open. Let's look. It was gonna be critical. It was gonna be critical. What time is it? 3.43? Jeez. I'm glad I see at least one car out there. So, but I'll also see a similar thing when we get sitting there. So, oh no. Hello. How are you doing? I'm gonna have a load coming from Kenosha. I'm in the Sprinter van. It refuses you. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. No, I'm just kidding. It's only like a few little containers. Yeah, just, is it on a pallet or is it just a thing? Yeah, it's on a pallet. I'm right here in this. Okay, I'll get it for you. Okay. Is this my copy or your copy? If you could sign that copy and I'll just take a photo of it and I should be good to go. Okay, however they can make a copy of it too, whatever. I don't mean to run and receive it but I don't want no problems with these, I don't want no problems. You know, they gonna swear up and down. They're gonna go like that. Make it look nice. Ha ha ha ha ha. Take two just in case. So you can keep that one. All right? And I'll meet you at the door. Sounds great. Thank you. Hopefully you get to go home soon so you ain't gotta be bothered no more. Wow. I'm such a nice person that I offered to stay for him cause he was gonna be late while then he showed up and I'm like, well your appointment was at 11 o'clock. Wow. I have to tell ya. Well, I'm glad I came here but when I came here, because guess who? I had to drive all the way back home and come back Monday. No, they need this. So they would, somebody would have took it but I don't know if anybody would have heard the buzzer or something. All right. Thank you. You have a great one. YouTube. Let's go ahead and get into it. Now, should you quit your job and do gig work? This is my answer as of today, February 12, 2024. Personally, I do not think that it's a good idea. I think that the market is too bad right now. I think that everything is slow as far as the gig action and everything. Like yes, here and there, you might get you some orders. Here and there, you might not get any orders but as of lately, it's been very, very slow especially in my area. I'm not sure how everybody else area is but I do wanna say from all of the other gig-tuber channel that I do come across, they're saying the same thing that's thrown in the area too. So, like after today's, is it a good idea? I think that in order for you to make this happen, you first have to have some money saved up. If you do not have any money saved up, do not do it. I'm looking at your face right now. Do not do it. I don't care if it's today, tomorrow, or next day. If you do not have any money saved up, do not do it. With this whole gig work thing, it's hit or miss. Like some days you might go crazy. You might get five, six, seven hundred. You might go crazy. And then other days, you might get a fat zero. So, it is all depends is you can't really say how much money you're gonna make. Either you're gonna make it or you're not gonna make it. Now, that's just doing gig work. If you did a dedicated route or something like that, then maybe that'll work for you. You can quit your job, get your dedicated route and then do the gig apps on everything else on the side. But as far as just doing completely gig apps, I wouldn't recommend it as of today. Everything is slow, so I don't think it's a good idea. But I also wanna say this. If you're planning on just quitting your job because you do have the money saved up and you're like, I don't wanna work at this job no more. I do understand that, but I will say before you make that move, I would recommend that you do gig work first. Do not just quit your job. You ain't signed up for no apps. You just go on out here, you quit the job. Now you've been trying to sign up for all these apps and all of them put you on the waiting list because they already filled. I would say start getting the apps before you make that move. Do not wait until it's too late. Get the apps, sign up. You do not have to have no cargo van, no sprinting van. You could use your car, your regular car that you was using to go to work with. You could use that vehicle. And I will work, start off doing small stuff and then work your way up. Like do Door Dash, Uber Eats. That's the reason why I tell you guys you gotta have as many apps as possible so you can make as much money as possible. And also you wanna get more experience from doing different things. Like find out what you really like doing. Find out what you like doing and also what you're gonna make money doing. So that's what I recommend to you guys. Again, as of February 12th, 2024, I would not recommend that you quit your job and just do nothing but get gas because it's like, you don't know when you're gonna make money and when you're not gonna make money. That's my opinion. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Again, if you are not subscribed, make sure to subscribe and also give me a thumbs up. And don't forget to throw them seeds up.
