Driver for Uber Eats?

Hi,

As my career prospects have been on a downward slump for a few years for a variety of reasons, and because I'm getting desperate, I'm having to (not dismissing those who do this job but because frankly, I'm not a good driver and get anxiety) consider doing something like Uber Eats delivery driving.

Has anyone done this line of work, or knows someone who has, and can share their experiences?

It would be handy to hear how the process is and actually getting started on the jobs and the earning capacity of such role. Even if I find a full time role, I'd consider doing this in a part time capacity.

Any help much appreciated

Thanks!

Ive never done it myself, but i know you would have to have business insurance. To cover you using your car for work.
The bigger companies are usually stricter on it than independent takeaways. They might even want proof of your insurance. The bigger companies might cover you on their policy, but you would have to check that out.
