This company finds unemployed people, and convinces them to use their own car and gasoline to make deliveries.
They promise 55% commission. At first, they pay a reasonable amount.
But then, they start loading the drivers up with work, and pay them only 2 weeks after the work is performed. Then, they say "this delivery was free to the customer" if the driver asks about deliveries they were not paid for. They will send someone to another city, taking 2 or 3 hours of their time, and pay them only $15, which doesn't even cover gasoline. They will work drivers 60 to 80 hours a week, and then only pay them $400, which barely covers gasoline. The drivers lose money,
and then leave very angry. The company makes all sorts of excuses, trying to blame the driver. Angry drivers have also been known to lose packages.
Do not have anything to do with this company as either a worker or a customer.
What the company will do, is pay $200 or $300 for a full week of work (50 hours), for a few weeks in a row. Then, when the driver is just about ready to leave, they will pay the promised amount for the subsequent week $700 or $800. That makes the driver excited to stay.
But, then there will be a few more $200 and $300 weeks, followed by a $500 week.
It costs $200 to $300 a week in gasoline, so that means many weeks of unpaid work.
On average, after paying expenses, it work out to about $5.00 per hour (minimum wage is now over $10.00), so half of minimum wage.
It seems that they arbitrarily make up numbers to put on paycheques, trying to keep the drivers working as long as possible, for the least possible pay.
